The brown-handed man laughed and asked, "And then?"
"When are you referring to 'later'?" Grayhand asked.
“It’s the time I’ve been talking to you about this and that,” the brown-handed man said.
The gray-handed man asked, "That period of time? What do you want to ask? Could you be more specific?"
“Of course,” the brown-handed man laughed. “What I want to ask is, while I was talking to you, did you think of any homophones for either of those two words?”
The gray-handed man said, "I've thought about it, but I can't say I've come up with it."
The brown-handed man asked, "You thought about it, but didn't think of anything?"
"What I meant by 'I didn't expect' is that there's no definitive conclusion yet," said Grayhand.
"The fact that there's no definitive conclusion is something I've already considered," the brown-handed man laughed.
The gray-handed man said, "That can't be considered as having thought of it."
The brown-handed man said, "What does that even mean?"
"As I said before, I've thought about it," the gray-handed man laughed. "Or you could say I've imagined it."
“Isn’t imagining something considered thinking about it? As long as you imagine something, you can say you’ve thought about it,” said the brown-handed man.
“You could interpret it that way, but as I see it, that doesn’t count as thinking about it. No matter what you say, I don’t think I’ve thought of it,” Grayhand laughed. “Besides, I’m not even sure if what I’m thinking is the same as what you’re saying, so it really has nothing to do with thinking about it.”
The brown-handed man said, "Fine, if you insist on saying it that way, then I'll assume you didn't think of it."
"You seem pretty helpless," Grayhand laughed. "I'm even thinking of imitating your tone of voice."
“Go ahead and imitate me if you want. I’d love to hear you imitate me,” said the brown-handed man.
"So when I imitate you, do you want to listen carefully to see if there's any helplessness in it?" Grayhand asked.
The brown-handed man laughed and said, "Sure, go ahead and imitate me."
The gray-handed man mimicked, "Alright, if you insist on saying it that way, then I'll assume you didn't think of it." The brown-handed man smiled.
The gray-handed man asked, "Just a smile like that?"
“Yes, what kind of reaction do you expect from me?” the brown-handed man asked.
The gray-handed man laughed and said, "Tell me about it."
"What did you say?" the brown-handed man asked.
"First, tell me how well you imitated me," said the gray-handed man.
“Yes,” said the brown-handed man.
"Just one word?" Grayhand asked.
"Are you disappointed?" the brown-handed man laughed. "Then I'll add one word: very similar."
“You weren’t that excited when you said it looked ‘remarkably like’,” said Grayhand.
"So what if it's so similar? What's there to get excited about?" the brown-handed man laughed. "It's as if I didn't know you could imitate my tone of voice so perfectly."
The gray-handed man said, "Knowing it makes it harder to get excited, right?"
“Yes,” said the brown-handed man. “I knew you could imitate it so well, or rather, I knew you could imitate it ‘exceptionally’ well. How many people get excited when something they expected happens?”
“Okay, then you can continue,” said the gray-handed man.
"What else is there to say?" the brown-handed man asked.
"Tell me, is there any element of helplessness involved?" Gray-Handed Man said.
“I knew you’d ask me that,” said the Brown-Handed Man.
"Do you need to guess? I already said it outright," said the gray-handed man. "I just wanted you to hear if there was any helplessness in that."
