[ Alberto gives a comedic grimace at the mention of skeletons, but it's from the heart, man. ]
Uh, yeah, no. I bailed on that skeleton island. Tell Bruno. I thought of him.
[ He points a finger at her emphatically. ]
I got off the boat, almost got attacked by a skeleton, then got back on the boat. I promised Bruno before we came here that I wouldn't go looking for danger, and thaaaat seeeeeemed like doing kind of exactly that. So I'm following the rules~
[ Spread the word. He brags about this like this is an unusual accomplishment, maybe. The fact he feels the need to draw attention to it is telling. Let alone that he and Bruno made this pact at all. It's sweet. But like so much else of what Alberto has said: mildly worrisome. Granted, the first time Pepa met Alberto, Bruno felt the need to tell him "Don't jump!" from like three stories up. So... this checks out. It's progress. And an apparent testament to Bruno's latent parenting skills? Who knew! ]
