Hey. It's too hot to do anything today, so you might as well talk.

What's the worst thing anybody ever did to you?

[That comes first. It's a minute or so before the rest follows.]

What would the dirtbag have to do to make you forgive them?

No, she never said anything like that to me.

I believe it is best to say we come from very different worlds in a literal sense and to leave it at that.

[There's a pronounced pause as he takes in the second part.]

Yeah. I guess I did.

But she kept you around, even when you didn't want to be.

Yeah, I'm starting to get used to hearing that. Sounds like you're from someplace almost fucked up enough to be the real world.

So here you are. Here's your chance to leave the crazy bitch behind.

Funny you would say I don't live in the real world. My world is the real world to me.

But you're right. She's not here. She's never been here.

Hell, after all this time, I should get around to the habit of calling it "my world" one of these days. That'll never stop being weird.

Then the only hold she has on you is in your head.

You'll make people happier that way. This world is just as real as the ones we're from.

With any luck she'll never come here. I don't want to have to deal with it.

Drop me a line if she does. There's got to be some kind of magic bullshit island version of a restraining order.

[He's forgotten that that'll be a little hard, being anonymous]

[He's going to hope she never shows up, but he appreciates the thought, even if it's going to be difficult to ask another anonymous person for help.]

Thanks. If she shows up, I'll be sure to ask for you.

[How, he'll work out later.]
