Aw, don't sell yourself short.

You're here for dumb shit, too.

[transfundere]

Believe me, of that I am well aware.

Daily do I have regrets around claiming there are no stupid questions.

[innerharbor]

Was that a stupid question?

[transfundere]

No, actually.

The questions I speak of usually result in grievous injury for no proper reason.

[innerharbor]

Oh, I can do more of that if you're getting bored. Just seems like a waste, you know.

[transfundere]

I assure you that I have much to take up my time. Please don't.

For everyone's sake.

[innerharbor]

Chill out, Doc. I was joking.

[transfundere]

Goodness, I HAVE been a bit... overly grave of late.

Duly noted.

[innerharbor]

You need a good shore leave. It's on me, don't worry.

[transfundere]

I probably do.

Do you mean to say you take it upon yourself to get us shore leave?

[innerharbor]

We're gonna stop for a few days to resupply eventually. Probably on Triton. I'll ask tomorrow.

I'll make sure you have a good time.

[transfundere]

Oh that's

Quite all right. I'm sure I'll be able to find a bookseller.

[innerharbor]

You're gonna park your ass on Triton for books?

[transfundere]

What would you recommend?

[innerharbor]

I know a really good brothel on Dock 7.

[transfundere]

Oh.

That's very kind.

Very kind.

I appreciate the thought immensely.

[innerharbor]

No problem. I'll wire them credit when we dock.

[transfundere]

Oh, that shouldn't be necessary. Your good word is certainly thanks enough.

[innerharbor]

You sure? Call it payback for fixing my leg that one time.

[transfundere]

I am both a doctor and your friend. Fixing your leg was my professional and personal duty.

But as I said, it's a very kind thought.

[innerharbor]

Huh. Didn't know we were friends. Pretty nice of you.

Lemme know if you ever need anything, Doc. I'll take care of it.

[transfundere]

Then I have been remiss in conveying my appreciation.

Please, consider me the same way.

[innerharbor]

Nah. That's on me.

You gotta be careful, Doc. Somebody's gonna take advantage if this is how you treat everybody.

[transfundere]

I would rather someone try to take advantage than that I neglect being kind to someone out of fear.

I take your point. That's just how I choose to conduct myself.

[innerharbor]

Don't worry. I'll watch out for you.
