Luke, clearly miffed, tries not to let it bother him, but eventually props himself up and looks over Luke's shoulder.
JAMES
Cat-fight.
SUNSHINE
Tigerlily did not 'run in' to you. Luke, how could Tigerlily have run into her if she crushed his leg?
......
SUNSHINE
Tigerlily is a she, Lena. Did you not read the letter she put on your door, introducing herself? She carefully paw-crafted four of them herself--one for each of us!
JAMES
Oh my God, not again.
SUNSHINE
I don't have a door [s]so[/s] and we didn't want anyone to see.
LUKE
(dead-panning)
Screw you. And honestly, James, if you insist on waking me up every night with your reading, couldn't you at least get something we'd both enjoy?
JAMES
(slightly alarmed)
Dot-dot-dot.
LUKE
Did you just…ellipse at me?
JAMES
Uhh…did you just suggest we read porn together?
LUKE
Yes. He's so, so weird! Last night, when I was in the shower, he walked in and started peeing.
JAMES
(snickering)
…in the shower with you?
Luke elbows James through the pillows.
LUKE
Ha ha. You know what? Fuck you.
They both laugh for a moment before they realize Luke's word choice and fall silent.
JAMES
So, um…
(beat)
Maybe we should stop talking…
JAMES
What can I tell him? 'Hey, Lena stepped on Sunshine's kitten and broke its leg, so we paid for emergency surgery'? He'll stroke out; he's already on my ass about keeping funds down, and this is just…unreal.
