[PEARL]
Oh! Hi, Impulse!
[IMPULSE]
Uh...
[PEARL]
I was... definitely not listening at the door while you gave your statement.
[IMPULSE]
Believable. Grian said there was work on my desk?
[PEARL]
(Disdainfully) Of course he did. Yeah, there was some statement with a lot of technical words in it that he didn't trust Mumbo to tell him the actual meaning of, and none of the rest of us could parse them, so we've been waiting for you to get back and take a look. And hoping you weren't dead or something. You're not, right? Dead.
[IMPULSE]
As far as I'm aware I'm still alive, yeah. Are you dead?
[PEARL]
What? No? Why?
[IMPULSE]
I figured it was polite to ask! You've got all sorts of weird things going on with, like, your eyes and stuff, you never know!
[PEARL]
I'm not dead, I'm just inevitably going to get crushed by a hallucinatory moon. There's a difference.
[IMPULSE]
If you say so.
[PEARL]
For real, though, you're alright, right? You were missing for four days.
[IMPULSE]
Yeah, I swear I had fun. I might even go back? It would be nice.
[PEARL]
(Dubiously) Doesn’t sound like my idea of a relaxing afternoon. I’d run in the opposite direction, if I were you. But… have a nice time, I guess?
[IMPULSE]
You know? I honestly think I will.
