Episode 112

[spongetastic]

I haven't heard from you. Where the hell are you? I will hunt down your ass, and kick it if you don't answer me.

If anybody sees a blonde British guy, let me know. He's probably hanging out at a bar or something.

I actually knew her before that, but yes, we worked together there. They were both very concerned about you, in particular. I'm glad you all made it back in one piece. That was a nasty bit of work for everyone involved...

[spongetastic]

I'm glad we made it, too. ... Hope he made it this time, too.

[savethedarkness]

I hope so, too. Cold comfort, I know, but... If it does turn out he's gone, perhaps he had the fortune of being lost in whatever shuffle brought us here. Like baggage missing a layover, if you'll pardon a horrid metaphor.

[spongetastic]

... You mean him going back home.

[savethedarkness]

[gently, without patronizing] It is a possibility to consider.

[spongetastic]

That means he... [that means he's dead. But it's hard to say that] We'll see.

[savethedarkness]

[she can guess quite well what he's not saying, and it surprises her. he'd told her he couldn't die....]. I'll have a look round for him, Peter.

[spongetastic]

Thank you. Just do me a favor and let me be the one to kick his ass for worrying us.

[savethedarkness]

I'd never presume to steal the honours.
