[Rue starts off sounding a bit thoughtful and relieved.]

I'm glad she's alright, even if I am still a bit worried.

Ah, perhaps it should be good if I learned how to swim. If anyone could assist me, I would appreciate it.

I won't.

Good! 'Cause you'll die from it. I've seen it happen, y'know. I've seen lots of stuff.

[Great, worry the poor doll.]

I have a way of getting out, if it comes to that.

[seagullmun.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sure. A backup plan. But what if you're not alone in there, huh? What about piranhas? You know what they are? I've seen them. In pictures, never in real life, but still-- they're creepy little tooth monsters, and they'll chew you up and spit you out. Well, they won't actually spit you out. You get what I mean.

[ruethepollywog.livejournal.com]

No, I don't know what piranhas are. I doubt there is any in the pond.

[seagullmun.livejournal.com]

But how do you know? Things are all around all the time, there's no escape here. Don't you ever wanna just hole up in your room and never go out again?

[ruethepollywog.livejournal.com]

No. I don't.

[seagullmun.livejournal.com]

Are you calling me crazy? Because that "no I don't" was more of a "you're crazy" answer than I expected. I'm not crazy.

[ruethepollywog.livejournal.com]

No, I didn't mean it like that, sir! I mean, I'm not worried if I get attacked, I know how to defend myself.

[seagullmun.livejournal.com]

Fine. If you die, don't say I didn't warn you. Because you won't be able to say anything. Because you'll be dead.

Dead.

[ruethepollywog.livejournal.com]

Please don't worry about me.

[seagullmun.livejournal.com]

I can't promise anything...

[ruethepollywog.livejournal.com]

I will be fine, I promise.

[seagullmun.livejournal.com]

It's not your choice, you know!
