If I thought about things before I said them I'm afraid I'd never get anything said.

Not at all. I think you've brought up some interesting points.

Really? Why?

That's quite understandable, although I'm afraid the amount of time it would take me to type things back to people would be terribly unprofessional.

I use my earpiece and audio more than anything because I hate typing on it unless I'm at my computer. And I'm rarely at my computer. [Though he is here more than he is at home.]

Ear...piece?

Yeah. It's like a teeny tiny telephone that fits to my ear. [And he turns on the communicator video so he can turn it and shows what sort of looks like a bluetooth earpiece.]

I can respond in text if I need to away from my computer, but I hate typing with my damn thumbs. [His hands are huge. Fuck that.]

Oh my! How does it stay in there?

And how does one type with one's thumbs?

Everything is...as well as can be expected, I suppose.

Thank you. Really. I'm not sure what there is to talk about, though.

Anything you'd like, really. I'm an excellent listener.

I know you are. I hate that you were put in this position, though.

There's no need to think of it like that. I certainly don't mind chatting with you.

I had actually wanted to talk to somebody about something myself. I'm a bit disappointed, actually, as I thought I had an excellent wardening idea, but Mr. Spinola wasn't at all interested. I'm not sure where I went wrong.

Much of what we say isn't easy to send with text. You lose a lot of meaning that way. I like the other ways of doing it. [Insults from Jane just aren't insults unless she can make the faces.]

I agree. I've also had people have difficulty understanding me overthe telephone before.

It's easier to look at someone when they talk to you. It's more difficult to hide.

To hide what?

I say, it has a telephone setting? [Bertie was shown how to use his communicator once, and promptly forgot about half of it.]

I must try it. Let me see...
