(from Hilda's cabin)

[epistemological]

I'm back.

[corkscrewed]

Just had to catch up to me, huh?

[epistemological]

I wanted to

I thought it was important.

[corkscrewed]

There are worse reasons, I suppose. Welcome back, Jon.

[epistemological]

[ There's a pause before-]

You said when you came that you'd just gone off for a walk.

Was that because I'd just gotten a box of statements?

[corkscrewed]

Yes? That's right. Wanted to give you a bit of privacy. Sounds like we've lined up?

[epistemological]

Close to.

I'm from just after you get back.

[corkscrewed]

That's good. :)

What were you thinking for dinner tonight?

[epistemological]

What would you like for dinner?

[corkscrewed]

Dunno. Just woke up from a nap, feeling a little hungry.

Did I see any good cows, btw? :)

[epistemological]

They're all good cows.

Did you have breakfast?

[corkscrewed]

Just some orange juice. Are you working?

[epistemological]

No. I'm at Hilda's.

[corkscrewed]

You shouldn't be texting me while you're visiting her x

[epistemological]

I thought you should know

[ Then, after many MANY ( . . . )'s]

Okay.

[corkscrewed]

[ ... okay, THAT'S a little weird. ]

Jon?

[epistemological]

Yes, Martin?

[corkscrewed]

What's bothering you? I saw you typing.

Was it a bad statement?

[epistemological]

[ He actually has to bite his own hand not to let out the most awful sort of barking laugh.

More ( . . .)'s, this time for almost a full minute. Finally.]

Yes.

Not here.

I'll explain just not like this.

[corkscrewed]

Oh.


Well, I'll be home.

[epistemological]

I'll be home soon.

Don't-

[ No, THAT is bullshit.]

I'm all right.

[corkscrewed]

[ well, now he's fucking terrified. ]

I'll put the kettle on.

[epistemological]

I love you.

I'll head there now.

[corkscrewed]

I love you, Jonathan Sims.

[epistemological]

[ The only bright spot he has is the fact that he knows, at least, that Martin won't change his mind after he knows what happened.

He knocks on the door, even though it's his own flat. He just wants to give Martin a chance to prepare once he's there. ]
