don't run me over (with a horse)

[A much louder laugh]

Kids run away a lot, huh? Least you got some rule breakin' in.

I climbed out the window so much my mom had to have a moat dug outside the tower my bedroom was in.

Did ya get good at swimmin'?

Until she put the crocodiles in...

[blankly stares at him.

what is a crocodile]

The what?

...Like alligators but slightly different?

I dunno those either.

Uh, they're like...

[he draws a picture in the dirt with his shoe. except he is not an artist at all, so this probably does not remotely help.]

... Leviathan?

No, way smaller. It's like, uh... A pretty big lizard with a really big mouth and lots of sharp teeth that swims around.

A real small Leviathan.

[ He gets it! Probably. ]

...Sure, yeah, that analogy works well enough.

Can ya eat 'em?

Uhhh, if you get too close it's way more likely to be the other way around.

Ya can't shoot them?

We don't have guns where I'm from.

Arrows?

I guess, but... We could also just leave them alone.

But they wanna eat you? Might as well eat 'em.

I mean, they're not monsters or anything, they're not super motivated unless you get close. I'm also not sure they taste good...?

They might.

You just want to shoot something, don't you.

I wanna eat meat.

Find a cow or something!

Think a cow's gonna survive in the desert?
