"James! We need to keep moving."

"Are we still too close to the water hole?"

"What? No... but you can't need another rest? We really need to build your stamine up."

"I'm touched by your concern."

"But you're not moving."

"I'm not. Not until you tell me what your plan is."

"You're what?"

"I'm staying here until you tell me what you want from me."

"James... are you on strike?"

"I... I suppose that is one way to look at it."

"What's stopping me from walking off and leaving you here, lost and alone?"

"The fact you apparently need me."

Lester is always smart. Although Helen isn't looking happy.

Thanks, the muse was reluctant to produce wordage.

Oooh, that's very intriguing! And well done Lester for figuring it out!

Helen still hasn't told me what she's up to. Lester's happy he figured it out.

Thanks for reading.
