[Yeshua truly is not immune to distractions; in fact, one might assert that Yeshua seeks them. At the very least, they're valuable to him in a way Wilhelm cannot afford. They're valuable to a price Wilhelm has no capacity to pay. Wilhelm wonders, now, whether he also functions as a distraction, and whether what he distracts from is also what he represents. He wonders about Yeshua. About him, and what he wants. Yeshua is an odd being to perceive. He has duties, and he has desires. There are things he wants, and things he knows he must do, too. That's not widespread, as far as Wilhelm has found. Creatures want things. It's simple, in that way. Creatures hold wants, whether or not they're given a responsibility as well. Wilhelm, meanwhile, will not hold a want. He has things he must do, and that is his sum. It's a different sum than human beings, and the sum of human beings is different from him.

And then: Yeshua, and all his equations.]


Is it by design, then, that I have such a kettle? Or, if you'd rather, you may answer this, instead: will you be joining me in tea for two, or will we drink alone tonight?
