If you notice a cup of coffee on the front of the desk, that one's mine.

Your planet makes good drinks.

[conagain]

Thanks for the warning, would've right out been disastrous were I to take a sip.

I don't mind coffee, but I prefer me tea.

Can't think there's much to work with on Arrakis for drinks. Besides, sweat, tears, piss... I don't want to think about it anymore.

[desertpowered]

No problem. We're friends, aren't we?

You're right. Now you know why I don't care how cold the coffee is. We don't have that where I come from.

Even cold coffee's better-tasting than, as you put it, sweat and piss.

When we go back, we're taking a water truck with us. Did you even know how many waters there were to choose from?

[desertpowered]

Tell me. I'm interested.

I'm holding onto that CD player too. I'd like more Pink Floyd records - they're good, but you can only listen to "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" so many times.

[conagain]

You're going to like The Wall, that's their 11th album.

Also, it wasn't a question really, just you know... there's all sorts of water you can get out here. Bottled, distilled, tap, well water, bubbly...

[desertpowered]

There's a few...Dark Side of the Moon, Animals, The Wall, as you said...

I've had bottled. You probably noticed there were less water bottles here when I was finished with them. I apologize.

[conagain]

It's all right, you take what you need.

Now, what are your thoughts about Queen?

[desertpowered]

Thank you. I have a lot to get through.

Queen is very distinctive - I only got to a couple songs so far. You like them?

[conagain]

It's bloody well my privilege to like them, being a native!

Not as good as Pink - ah, you want to watch the movie?

[desertpowered]

Yes. Yes I do.

Can we have popcorn with it? That's the tradition in your world, I think.

[conagain]

Yes, popcorn, fizzy drinks, sugary treats.

The rate we're going, we'll not be fit enough to return to the desert.

[desertpowered]

Oh, I don't want to overdo it...but a bowl of popcorn and some soda wouldn't hurt.

Maybe you can show me the kind of work you do. You talk to spirits. I'd like to try one day.

[conagain]

Right.

I've been keeping my secrets, haven't I? Didn't mean to, mate, we can do that before the flick.

[desertpowered]

We have ourselves a deal.

And I'll share some of mine to even the bargain.

[conagain]

You've been holding out on me? Dear old John??

<font face="courier">You just admitted to holding some out on me.

[conagain]

Well, yeah, that's to be expected. I'm a magic man, with tricks up his sleeve!

[desertpowered]

You're not the only one with tricks up his sleeve. I think your friend will find that out on his own.

[conagain]

I'll take maximum delight at the sight of it.
