BB: So, how is it going, Ducks?
Judith: *waves a hand* I was in the court today.
BB: What court?
Judith: Y’know, the trial.
BB: *wriggles his eyebrows * You drove over a cat, didn’t you?
Judith: *sends BB a dead glare* The guardian thing I was asked to become? The debt thing I was asked to resign from on Baby Girl’s behalf? I told you about it! *pouts*
BB: So what did you do? Fucked up or something?
Judith: No, everything went well. Smooth, you might even say. Assembly line, ‘s what it is.
BB: What’s with the act then? Seriously, I will have to ask you to leave, you’re ruining my karma.
Judith: I’m ruining your what? How for the ever loving fuck am I doing that? No, wait. I don’t even wanna know. *sighs* It’s just that, dunno. It’s shitty, and complicated, and all kinds of messed up right now.
BB: *looks in concern* You really didn’t want to hit that cat, huh?
