"Well, yeah, but those were trained bears," Will reasons, folding his hands in his lap, now that he's arranged the coins on the table to his liking. "They had practice. If you just put a bear in a truck, it's not gonna know what to do. It's gonna just...chew on the wheel or something." Soon they're going to be discussing the finer points of higher education for bears.
This seems suspiciously like homework of some kind, and Will's eyes narrow for a moment in skepticism. But he does like short stories too, and he likes reading and Sam doesn't seem like she's trying to trick him into reading something dumb. "Which ones are the gross ones?" He knows what macabre means, look at him.
Then, sitting up a little straighter, a bit of that fear creeping back into his expression: "MRI's don't make you burn. Right?" That's the next step, now that EKG has failed most of the doctors. The idea of being inside a big metal tube, taking pictures of his brain is already terrifying.
