Troy: “I was buried, and nobody ever dug me up.”
Me: “Awww, I’d dig you up. You’re a treasure. The best treasure! A gift from God. Ooh, ooh. Imagine if pirate treasure was called “Troy” rather than gold. Then, everyone would be trying to get a piece of Troy. People would fight to have more Troy. And you’d be richer if you had more Troy. And nobody would ever have enough Troy. They’d want to keep their Troy all for themselves, because it is the most precious thing on earth.”
Troy: “What if I wanted some Troy?”
Me: “Hmmm, I guess you’d be fighting for yourself. Which I guess is a little weird.”
Troy: “Yeah, that’s the weird part.”
