Live And Let Die (What, You Expected Me To Alter It?)

> "None of your business, Longwood," he snapped.
> She frowned. "Hey, I'm just trying to be civil here. Don't be such

"Civil I don't have a problem with," muttered Keto, "It's
irritating little people with prying minds that I have a problem
with."
"What is your *problem*?" snapped DJ, coming to an abrupt
halt, "Did someone perform an operation to make you such an asshole?"
"No, it happened entirely naturally," spat Keto, "Are we going to
find that smegging engineer or not?"
Unfortunately, trying too hard not to look stupid or let DJ say
anything TOO derogatory, Keto had not been paying attention to how
far they had walked into the temple or where he was going.
Therefore, his comment was ironically followed by a yelp as he
slipped at the entrance to the tunnel and fell, landing right on top
of Commander Smegg, who had been trying to climb out.
DJ peered over the edge into the tunnel.
"Are you okay down there?" she asked.
"Define okay," came the reply, "Oh, and when you've got a second,
giving us a hand out of here would be a nice idea too!"
