[ Another person might protest. Refuse the goggles or go into some explanation of how they don't need them.

That person is not Gorgug, and also: he hates explaining anything. What does Gorgug know will happen to his head or any part of his body, really? So when Alex offers back the goggles, he looks at them not with any particular expression (curious, at most) and then takes them. ]

Okay. [ No complaint here! Instead, he reflects on something that they did say, and with a nod, says, ] My friend, he's a fighter too, and my head's really hard, but he learned the best way to make people focus on him in a fight. You've got to be a good dodger.

[ Or so he hopes Alex is, if either of them are the same. Then again, does that make any sense to them? Regardless, Gorgug puts the goggles back on over his eyes.

He's a good boy! ]
