Alright. Oatmeal it is. Plain and borin'! [ He turns from the thrall to Yuri, his sarcastic grin completely ignoring Yuri's complaints. ] You're gonna eat a whole bowl or I'm gonna stay here and nag you till you wanna stab me with a fork.

[ Complaints? Too bad. Bones will not hear them. Plus he'll keep on taking Yuri's vitals, taking hold of one of his wrists and gently pressing down to check his pulse. By now the thrall has left to fulfill their task. ]

What's your problem with thralls, anyway? What, you think they ain't worth talking to?

[ To be clear, he doesn't think this. He is being abrasive on purpose in an attempt to get Yuri to open up. This is classic Bones for you. ]
