He shakes his head in rueful agreement.

"You say true. Keeps our lives here interesting, I suppose."

"We certainly would not want to be bored."

"Aye, gods save us from that."

It's a little bit dry. Boredom would make a nice change, now and then.

"Something tells me you do not agree." Sara privately does. So much has happened in the past week. Then again, after Vegas anything is boring.

He shrugs and smiles.

"I'd prefer boredom to trouble, and the good sort of interesting times to both."

"As long as there is an equal balance, I'm happy. Otherwise I either get into trouble due to excess boredom, or give into depression with too much trouble. At least if the trouble isn't the fun kind."

"We can agree on that, sai," he says amiably. "I'd have wished for less trouble sometimes, say true" -- like in recent days, and in most of the last several years of his life -- "but I wot I wouldn't know what to do with myself with none. Feel useless, I would."

"And we can also agree on that. I hate feeling useless."
