]
What, a melodrama?

The deadest deadpan that ever deadpanned. Arthur wonders, not for the first time, how this is his life.

Arthur's not entirely sure if he should drop it since casual chitchat isn't really his thing. But, as it turns out, all the exits out of this particular conversation are barred and locked by the Powers That Be.
His only option: to wait it out.

A novelist, I'm assuming?

This is very true.
[The most sage of nods.]
True.

Maybe they'd let you keep one.
[Letting Spain have a pet dinosaur could possibly destroy the world though.]
