Will you let me stay by your side?

[ A simple, but selfish wish. ]

Stay by my side... For as long as you wish.

Then, that's what I'll do.

[ There's nothing else he wants more but this. ]

And if the stars separate us? What then? If our journeys take us in different directions...

So long as we remain in the same timeline, won't we simply meet again later on? I'll come find you, if I have to.

Then if that is something that you truly want, I demand that you do it.

You'll wait for me? Even if it takes a while?

Yes.

Of course.

Yet, if you take too long, I'll be quite upset with you.

You can punish me if I make you wait too long.

That, I'll be sure to do.

Thank you, Gallagher.

Didn't even hesitate?

I see. That's what you're into...

[ He is amused, ok. ]

[... !!]

You're not denying me. In fact.

Isn't it you that might be ... into it.

I hope you weren't expecting me to deny it.

Why would I?

[ Because he is into it, really. He likes it when Sunday takes control of what he wants. ]

I think you might quite like it when I tell you what to do.

Is that a bad thing?

Not exactly.

I'll be sure to remember that the next time we spend time together.

Then, I'm looking forward to next time, birdie.

So long as you don't complain when I command you about.

I'll be a good Hound.
