He looked thoughtful for a moment and then said “That shouldn’t matter at all. Your brain isn’t doing anything different at all. It’s just not recieving all the input you normally do.

“And yes, I do think if you two sat down and could keep your insults to yourselves for a moment we could perhaps reset things. But that would mean you’d have t be willing to hear each other out,” she said.
