Jeez. I really am lucky to have the kind of life I do back home, aren't I?

[revengeofthemordsith]

That much is obvious.

You're not the usual caliber of people here.

[thebestseller]

As in "I'm an ordinary guy with an ordinary job"? Yeah. Makes me wonder why they picked me, but maybe it's because I'm used to being famous. They thought they'd get less resistance from me.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Or perhaps it is your strange sense of humour.

[thebestseller]

Or my rugged handsomeness.

[revengeofthemordsith]

That one is debatable.

[thebestseller]

You can't see me, but I'm SO sticking my tongue out right now.

[revengeofthemordsith]

That is probably for the best. I used to cut out tongues when that happened.

[thebestseller]

Duly noted.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Good.
