The magical death cruise problem?

And what would the solution look like, to you?

I'm still trying to figure that part out. I haven't been here that long and I don't have that much information. And I don't know what an ideal solution looks like to everyone.

I get the impression you might be underestimating the scope of this whole situation.

Is that a polite way of saying you think I can't do it? That might've hurt my feelings. You don't know me well enough to know whether or not I can do the impossible.

I think I'd like to see that.

Then please be patient and cooperate. It'll go faster if we all work together.

[laughs]

I'm not not cooperating.

I know. It's just a friendly reminder. You'll be more entertained if you play along, so you won't lose out.

Oh? There's entertainment to be had, too?

I mean, probably. Isn't that why people love reading murder mystery novels? Solving a mystery is entertaining.

[there's a bit of an awkward silence there]

Is that what you think the genre is?

[quiet on the other end of the line, the humor slipping out of his tone]

I'm not sure. Like I said, I'm still figuring things out. It's hard to get a full picture in only two days. What genre would you categorize it as?

I don't know. I'm afraid that isn't really my area of expertise.

I don't read enough stories to know for sure. But maybe we can settle on an "action/adventure" story with a bit of mystery thrown in until we can narrow it down.
