"Yeah?"
     "You feeling normal yet?" she asked bluntly.
     "Yes, you?"
     "A little achy, but that's not what I meant."
     "I saw the headlines this morning. They deathtrapped you, didn't they?"
     "Yeah. I was wondering if I could come over and you could bond my gloves to my hands."
     Quiet. "No."
     "Why?"
     "Because I won't do it."
     "So there's a way to do it."
     "I'm not even going to try to look into finding a way."
     "Fine, I'll find somebody who will."
     "I have to point out that it's a remarkably bad idea."
     "Whatever." She sighed.
     "You OK?"
     "Yeah. I gotta go."
