Music Club LIX

Bull: You ever been in love?

Dom: Got your eye on a special girl, eh?

Bull: Something like that

Dom: I haven’t been in love, no. A few crushes, but nothing solid.

Bull: Say you’re an alien, and you come to Earth, and you fall in love with a woman - but you don’t think the woman will ever be able to love you back

Dom: Cos you’re an alien?

Bull: Right. And on top of that, there’s a special alien law that means you’ll be crucified or something if you ask the woman out and she rejects you.

Dom: So you have to be sure she digs aliens before you ask her?

Bull: Yeah. I mean, you’ll still get tortured just for dating her, cos human-alien relationships are so frowned upon...but at least then you’d get to be with her.

Dom: I’d probably just leave it

Bull: You can’t live without her

Dom: If I was that obsessed but couldn’t tell her, I’d find ways to show her. By doing nice things and stuff.

Bull: Okay, fast-forward a few months. You’ve been super-nice, doing huge favours, but she still just thinks you’re friends.

Dom: Is she kinda dumb then?

Bull: No, but there’s such a big cultural gap between humans and aliens that it’s never even occurred to her that her alien friend might love her

Dom: Then I guess I’d have to tell her upfront. So who’s the lucky girl?

Bull: Nobody you know
