do you both promise to use your words
i promise why are we doing it this way
because when you have peace talks you
need someone neutral to mediate
otherwise it just breaks down into
yelling this is dumb well we're doing it
besides it took me five minutes to get
in this chair and i'm not getting out
grandpa promised you're off to promise
okay fine i promise good
now i will admit that hostilities may
have escalated more than either of us
anticipated
you don't touch another man's computer
that's not cool
that's what war is all about kiddo war
i just want my room back no yelling
i'm not yelling he's yelling say you're
sorry to grandpa
no it's it's okay sweetheart i love you
grandpa i love you too
stop that stop what what's going on here
nothing's going on you're supposed to be
neutral
i don't even know what that means means
you shouldn't act like you like him
better than me
i do like him better than you he gave me
a cookie
okay that sounds worse than it is it is
true a cookie was given but it was way
before this negotiation had even been
scheduled
chocolate my favorite
mine too that's it i'm done
piece is cancelled no gallen shut up
shut up the bad word peter can you get
my second cookie now
peter peter peter hold on please come on
you're right a cookie may have been
involved
which may have been an attempt to
influence the mediator which in
retrospect may have been inappropriate
may have been okay to be fair you went
to negotiations with a bit of an
attitude yourself you didn't really give
peace a chance either
