dialogue prompts from mostly dead things by kristen arnett.

there’s too many bodies in this house, as it is.

it’s not going well.

i can’t stand being helpless.

you wanna hold [pronoun]?

could you please stop?

who was the girl?

i’m never doing this again.

i just want a break.

hurry up and get your clothes on.

i’ll buy you new ones.

let me talk to you about it.

there’s a lot you should know.

would you like to sit down?

this is your office?

it really bothers you that much?

i just wish everything would stop being so fucking weird all the time.

let me take you to dinner.

you haven’t dated a lot of women, have you?

you never talk to anybody.

tell me your best childhood memory.

what was your favorite food growing up?

you don’t like taking your work home?

i don’t want it to feel like home.

everybody needs a place they feel safe.

you know i’m here for you. all you have to do is ask.

i’m too much for one person.

i was only gone for twenty minutes.

you can ask, you know.

people all handle shit different, i guess.

christ jesus almighty.

you’re doing real good.

are we gonna get in trouble for this?

Lea nodded, accepting the phone back. “I see,” she commented. “That is satisfactory.” She slipped the phone back into the small dress pocket.

Now here’s the thing.

She had no intention of telling on Lea for not being good at technology. But she really hated being told what to do. She shared that whole authority issues problem with her tall other half.
