As DL’s flying power ran out he landed on the ground. DG landed next to him, “Ran out of steam?” grimaced DG.
“Can you give me a lift to New Laputa?” inquired DL.
“It’ll cost you.”
“Never mind, I’ll get the hover bus.”
“Have you got any change?”
“Why?”
“It’s just that the cash you have acquired from me is all $100 bills.”
“Oh. I don’t suppose they’ll change a hundred?”
“I’ll give you a lift for a hundred,” offered DG.
“A hundred, that’s daylight robbery!”
“It has been since the beginning of this story. I am a super criminal after all, the same as you.”
“We’re supposed to be partners.”
“50/50?”
“Alright then.”
DG caught DL up in his arms and flew to New Laputa with him.
“Good job my invulnerability still works,” moaned DL, “you have made my costume chafe.”
“How do you know I am chafing you if you are invulnerable?”
“I’m guessing.”
“You’re gassing as well, I can smell it, have you lost another power?”
“No, I told you I told you it was the beans. Ouch!”
“What’s the matter?”
“I can feel the chafing now.”
