My eyes are crossing from all of the quotation marks.

Intriguing! I’d love to know what they are/are not talking about. :)

This was interesting. Stories with no narration are hard to pull off usually, but you did it with ease. The conversation didn’t seem forced, which was good. Although in line 9 I think it is, I would take out the second ‘you’ and replace it with “my”. Just a suggestion!

I wish I knew what they were arguing about! Comical story.

Conflict; the focal point of many books and scripts. This exchange between reluctant follower and empathetic leader is nice to read out of context. So we guess. We guess the relationship, their sex, their predicament. But, I know they are both courageous and strong individuals and sometimes it takes a stronger person to be led than to lead.

What you wrote is a story within a story.

Janette Winterson wrote a book titled Written on the Body. The narrators gender is not identified. Its a difficult read. You’ve done the same thing. Our assumptions are the true story of our individual perceptions. You’ve written a Sociology experiment.
