I hope you're proud of yourself.

Look, I...

...I'm really sorry, it was an accident.

Are you okay? I didn't hurt you too badly, did I?

Could be worse.

Could have a really gaudy bandage on my head.

Oh wait.

I already have one of those.

[There is a long pause between one note and the next. Whether this can be attributed to Phoenix deadpanning or feeling guilty, it isn't clear.]

I found out a few things - things you may be interested in, like about bats (not live ones...wood/metal ones). I was thinking... [a soft, contemplative pen tap.] ...that I could somehow make all of this up to you.

"May"? I'm always interested in that kind of stuff. Don't be a stranger. (And don't feel like you have to make things up to me. Giving you a hard time's fun good enough. [smiley face])

Oh yeah. What's your name? Unless you like being called Spiky Head and Eyebrows Guy No. 2.

Niikura - not like the mythological bird.

No problem on that front, but I'll [pen taps] Maybe.

...you're so funny that I almost lost a rib laughing. [small :P face]

From what I was able to figure out, it sounded like the bats are somewhere outside, in a shed? I was thinking you might know someone who could point us in the right direction if you don't know where. I'll hunt around too.

And...who was the guy that was with you last night?

Thanks. I've been known to cause those sorts of things, sorry.

The shed? Really? Sheesh, not that place Nah, I know where it is. If you really wanna go for it, just meet me in the same spot you-know-when.

Oh, his name's Mike. Nice guy, likes cats.
