please explain the meaning of these sentence and phrases
Thankfully, our boat docked at that moment before **my little water-puppet drama – and **my bowels – **unraveled any further.

"Normally, I resist inquiring about your odd behavior. But this time it seems to have **become personal. So **amuse me. Why did you kill me off?”

Answer

Thankfully, our boat docked at that moment before **my little water-puppet drama – and **my bowels – **unraveled any further.

bowels = insides of the stomach

He is referring to getting seasick. The boat got to land just before he was about to spew up.

Answer

I don't know the exact meaning the writer wants to bring to readers, like "my little water-puppet drama" and "my bowels", what are them refer to?  (the writer is telling lies at that moment)

Then, what's mean by "become personal", is it mean the matter has some connection with the asker?

Answer

Could you write your question a little more clearly, please? It's difficult to understand how much of this you want explained.
