Bus XXXII

Scott: Cinema tonight?

Louisa: Sounds good

Jack: Can Alby come?

Louisa: Who’s Alby?

Scott: Albert Winterson. His new best friend.

Jack: He’s just this new guy in our tutor group. He knows all about Plato and Buddha and Nietzsche. He uses them to show us where we’re going wrong in our lives.

Scott: He’s a dick. Anyone can read a load of books. It takes actual effort to finish Wizard’s Palace III or know who won every World Cup.

Jack: Scott’s what Alby calls an unbeliever. He says all the unbelievers will be vanquished soon.

Louisa: Vanquished? What does that mean?

Jack: I think it means they’ll be flipping burgers for us

Louisa: He can come. Sounds funny.

Scott: I’m not coming if he does

Jack: That’s okay, you wouldn’t be allowed anyway. Alby’s put you on his blacklist.
