White Mage | How did you get us lost?! |
Black Belt | We're not lost. We're, uh... exploring. |
White Mage | "Exploring"? |
Black Belt | Er yeah. Y'know, for treasures and stuff. |
White Mage | I see. And it doesn't bother you at all that we're doing this instead of fulfilling our destiny? |
Black Belt | Not really. I figure the world owes us--or or it will owe us when we triumph as per our destiny. So what's wrong with taking some now? |
White Mage | How does the world owe us for doing the right thing? |
Time passes... | |
Black Belt | I think I saw a treasure chest around here somewhere. |
Black Belt walks out of frame to the right. | |
White Mage | Okay. We'll talk about the ethical ramifications of using destiny for profit later. Right now, I'm more worried about our decoys. They could be in danger. |
Black Belt | (out of frame) If you're so hung up on this whole 'destiny' thing, then you shouldn't be worrying. |
White Mage | How do you figure that? |
Black Belt | (out of frame) Well, if you really believe that we're all just playing out pre-destined roles to save the world, then technically we've already won. It's just a matter of catching up with fate. |
Black Belt appears to the left of White Mage. | |
Black Belt | Er... how did I get back here? |
White Mage | I knew it! We are lost! Grah! |
Black Belt | Speaking from a purely philosophical perspective, we're not lost so much as spatially displaced. |
White Mage | You failed philosophy, didn't you. |
Black Belt | Big time. |
