James is staring down at the cup I handed him. He hasn't taken a single sip of it. I take it from his hand and take a drink.

"If I wanted to kill you I would have done it in the insane asylum we were trapped in," I hand it back to him. He smirks and takes a heavy drink.

"It never crossed my mind. I was just wondering why you would try to be any kind of hospitable to me,"

"You're just giving me a job and letting me go?" he asks confused.

"What did you think I was going to do?"

"Keep me in a box until you require my services,"
