[Really? Really? Okay, old man, you asked for it. Two can play at this game. Freddy grinds back with an equal amount of steadiness and ease. He beckons for Larry to curl over closer. They're in their own home, sure, but this needs to be whispered.]
I'll tell you a secret, okay? Something I ain't ever told anybody.
[Freddy shakes his head.] When I was in college I had to do this project on astronomy, something about catching Venus near Orion's Belt. I had to head up to the observatory, you know the big one in Griffith Park? James Dean? Everything I know about the sky I learned from comic books so I had no fuckin' idea what I was doing up there. I kinda just kicked around with my backpack, looked over LA, I thought maybe I gotta sneak in to get the telescope cause I'm not paying for some VIP membership just to get an A. Well this other guy up there, I'd seen him in the place where I was, writing some I don't know what in his notebook. He looked like a real smart scientist type, probably some professor over at UCLA. Handsome, brunette, shaved, glasses.
[This is going somewhere, Lawrence Dimick, honest.]
