Drama Queen

I’m guessing you’ve paid attention to the the news. 

Yeah... And pretty much everyone is talking about it. 

Whatever it wouldn’t be, it’s time to drop it, before your ways of understanding get even poorer. 

Time to drop what? There's nothing to drop. Jesus Christ, Jay. You've established my ways of understanding are poor, so you can you just explain what you're saying in simpler terms? 

Seems like a reasonable reaction. Thanks— For,um, asking. 

Uh, yeah, sure. You're welcome. 

Yeah, that’s terribly interesting. What if I told you that you possibly have a choice, but just don’t seem to be considering it as an option? 

I don't— What? What are even saying?

I think you might be possibly wrong there. 

Believe me, if I had any choice. how I look at you would be completely different. So, I'm almost certain I'm right. 

Um— Yeah, I am. 

Well, that's good, I think. Okay, I don't know what to think, but sure. It's definitely still good that you're okay. 

If that’s how you want to look at things; sure. 

It isn't. I don't think I get a choice in how I look at things. 

Are you okay?- I don't know why I asked that. It just seemed like the natural response, somehow. 

A gorgon?

You know with the snakes for hair? Turns people into stone? They could be useful.

I'm being too quiet. It's weird. This whole thing is weird. 

So you mean to tell me that if you saw one walking down the street, you wouldn’t stop to check it out?

I'd check it out, yeah. But I'd rather have a pet dragon or gorgon.

But pet unicorn’s would be so cool.

When I was five maybe. 

Can’t say it was dull, though, can we? 

Hey! So you’ve heard of me. Ah, why am I always surprised, of course you know who I am. But again, I still don’t know who you are. Not that I care —- I just need you to stand further away.

Or, I don't know, you could fuck off? That may be easier.
