[dogsled]

But this will be our house, Ray, is the point I'm trying to make.

[kickem]

But. Curling.

[dogsled]

You may find you come to enjoy it, with a little exposure. At least the hockey games will be for our mutual benefit.

[kickem]

We can just stick to hockey. I'll just uh, leave the apartment if curling comes on. Maybe take Dief for a walk. Unless he likes that shit too.

[dogsled]

No, Dief can't watch curling. He finds it frustrating that the people chase the stones and still never seem to catch them.

[kickem]

At least one of you has some sense. So yeah, okay. Me and Dief can have some buddy time while you're watching the most boring 'sport' in history.

[dogsled]

Curling is a riveting sport, Ray!

[kickem]

Yeah, sure. If you're into watchin' paint dry.

[dogsled]

Is that a sport, Ray?

[kickem]

Probably in Canada.

[dogsled]

Paint doesn't dry very quickly in lower temperatures.

[kickem]

Don't mean it can't be a sport.

[dogsled]

Well, if you say so. I suppose we can play if you teach me the rules.

[kickem]

No, Fraser. I'm not gonna watch paint dry. That's your thing.

[dogsled]

If you say so, Ray.

In that case I can't think of any reason not to co-habitate.

[kickem]

Like.

Wait. Does that mean you're staying?

[dogsled]

You did say I was all you wanted for Christmas.

[kickem]

Well, yeah. But uh, actual stayin'? For good and not just Christmas?

[dogsled]

That would be the idea, Ray. A Mountie isn't just for Christmas.

[kickem]

Okay. Good.

Great.

You uh, you wanna bring some stuff over tonight?

[dogsled]

I have a box of personal belongings, a spare uniform, several sets of clothes. Diefenbaker's bowl. Those sorts of things?

[kickem]

Yeah! Those sorta things. I got space for 'em.

[dogsled]

Thank you, Ray.

I have to admit, I've been wondering if you'd ever offer.

[kickem]

You'd been waitin' for an offer? You couldn't just suggest it?

[dogsled]

It wasn't my place. You were... Well, it's your apartment. You might have been enjoying your freedom.
