[karlsefni]

Eh. [that's not an answer, thorfinn.] Well, you're not dead. Nice to know.

[badbreak]

[Badou blinks, because this conversation is -- mildly surreal, surreal enough to snap his attention]

[was Thorfinn actually... no, that was nuts, right?]

-- Tch. Not for that crazy bitch's lack of tryin', I ain't.

[karlsefni]

[he snorts, tilting his head back - with his phone on his shoulder, pressed to his ear, as he lifts his knife high into the sky to press it against the light, see how it glints.]

Sure does like to sleep talk, doesn't she? [a beat,] What was even the point of that?

[badbreak]

There wasn't none.

[he really doesn't feel like getting into it again]

[karlsefni]

I'm not talking about the bitch. I'm talking about the - tee-vwee and the dead bodies.

[badbreak]

It's landlord bullshit.

[he hesitates]

People're surprised. I can't believe they are.

[karlsefni]

People're stupid. They always have been.

[a pause, while he looks over the knife] Didn't they realize from the moment they were brought there, that the bastard can kill them whenever he likes?

[badbreak]

I guess not. Think they figured they were on fuckin' holiday. No rent, free food, sky...

[a sharp, dismissive noise]

They don't get it -- that they're owned.

[karlsefni]

Wave something good in front of their faces and they think it's all fine. [snorts] They're idiots, all of them.

[badbreak]

Yeah.

[karlsefni]

It doesn't matter, they're idiots that'll die for not seeing that.

Don't get yourself killed.

[badbreak]

[Gau was one of those idiots, he thinks, but shoves the thought down]

[another pause, at that added mutter]

...Yeah. Where're you?

[karlsefni]

[like he knows that.] River.

[badbreak]

Fishin'?

[karlsefni]

I was thinking about getting another gator, actually.

[badbreak]

[an almost incredulous snort]

If ya hunt 'em all, there won't be no more.

[karlsefni]

I've only hunted two. There's still plenty of them left.

[badbreak]

Ya don't know how many there was t'start with.

[karlsefni]

What do I care if they run out? I'll just hunt something else. A man's gotta eat.

[badbreak]

I showed ya what you can eat in the house...

[karlsefni]

It feels weird eating without hunting.

[badbreak]

Yeah, yeah. You're just bein' stuck up.

[karlsefni]

[snorts]

So? What are you so busy for that you can't beat that bitch's ass?

[badbreak]

[...]

Lookin' for somebody.

[karlsefni]

You spent days on that?
