[The joke portion definitely feels see through to her given other conversations or earlier in this one.] Okay, that was a rhetorical question meant to just state that no one would be happier without you. Just accept it. [She knows it's not that easy, but she's putting her verbal foot down anyway. If nothing else she assumes he imagines some throngs of other people. She isn't thinking he could mean her.
She's less sure what to say to the last part. It sounds like he just feels trapped and well, he is. They all are. But most days she doesn't just feel trapped. But maybe that's the difference between being dead back home or not.]
Sorry, sorry. I thought that you were asking for a list. [He did not think that at all, but he is sorry. Kitty's trying. She's wrong and doesn't seem to remember that he's never made her happy, but the effort is there and the least he can do is act helped.
He attributes the lack of a further response to annoyance or frustration, which is fair and, honestly, same.]
Never. Lists are the worst. All those things in order? Who can stand it? [Trying to joke around and lighten the mood. Is it working? Should she do a tight 5 on lists?]
If you have a list of people who like lists I'd love to hear it. [What a topic they've landed on. This is the safest of territories and could surely never fail them.]
