No, it really wouldn't be. But... That's not the only reason why I'm glad you're not like Jack, you know.

What?

Oh yeah?

Sometimes your "stating the facts" does sound a lot like suggesting.

Yeah.

Does it, now?

I'm just calling it like I see it, Mr. Jones. It's almost like you'd prefer me being the wolf in sheep's clothing, or something, rather than actually have good intentions and a pure heart.

Sorry. I just... I guess I've spent so much time with Jack that it's still a little hard to accept that there really are nice guys out there who aren't in this for any sort of ulterior motive or anything. Like you, for example, if you are really as much as a boyscout as you claim to be.

Okay, maybe I'm not exactly a boyscout. But I really don't have any ulterior motives. Remember, I have a terrible poker face. There's no way I could keep something from you, not really.

I...think you already know about how good my poker face is. I'm getting better at it all, though. Like I've said before, I really don't want to lie to you and well. So far so good, which. I'm actually a little surprised about, really. I don't have the best of track records on these things.

Well, I'm glad that you don't lie to me. There's no reason to, you know - if you want to talk about something, like this or... well, just anything. You don't have to hide it.

I know. I won't. I just.

There are things that I'll need to talk to you about, sometime. Well, tell you about, really. I just. I don't want to scare you away with them, I suppose. That's why I've held back on it. There are only so many depressing points I can comfortably subject you to, you know?

You're not going to scare me away. I defended you against a ghost, remember? I'm terrified of ghosts. If something literally frightening hasn't chased me away from you, I'm pretty sure you're stuck with me.

But I don't want you to tell me anything that you don't want me to. I just want you to know you can be open with me.

Yeah, I remember. Thank you for that, by the way. I know I've said it since, but. Really.

It's fine. Honestly. I'll get there eventually. I want to get there eventually. "Ghosts and all", like you said.

Thank you for helping me after I got knocked down by that glass. I don't know what would've happened if you hadn't taken charge there.

All right. Well, I'll be here, whenever you get there.

Well. Nothing good, I gather. Which is why I stepped up then, as it is. I won't lie, though, it absolutely terrified me to see you that out of it and bleeding so much. I'm not generally the one out in the field, having to deal with that sort of thing.

Yeah. I know. And I'm glad for it. Especially of the fact that you'll be patient with me about it all. It's nice. Refreshing, being able to share in my own time, and all.

I'm glad you held together for it. I don't remember much of anything after that, to be honest.

D'you mean after you got hit, after we set out with our "plan" from the bathroom, or after we got out of the room itself, that you don't remember after?

It still is weird to think that you're totally fine now, after all that. I mean, I'm glad that you are, but. This community has almost frightening abilities to fix everything that it's messed up...

After I got hit, honestly.

I'm equal parts horrified and grateful for it, so I'm trying my best not to focus on the fact that I nearly hemorrhaged and didn't end up with so much as a scratch.

I'm not surprised, really. It... I'm no doctor, but it looked pretty bad.

Yeah. I understand completely. I'm going to pick grateful though, personally. It's a bit eerie, but I'm glad to see that you're alright again. I've got enough experience with concussions to know that you would've had to watch yourself for the next month or so, just to make sure you didn't hit your head again, because then things really would be bad. That is, with today's technology, anyway. Though I can't really see there being much advancement in that field, no matter how much you are in the future.

Yeah, it didn't feel very good, either.

Concussions will always be a pain in the ass, but yeah. I'm glad it didn't stick. I... don't like being like that.

Thought as much. And no, I don't suppose you would. I mean. Not that anyone enjoys being incapacitated, but. You seemed to be especially put out about it all.

It was different to have to be looking out for someone, really. Usually I'm the one who needs saving, as it is.

I'm not big on being incapacitated like that. I'm... just glad that you were the one there.

Well, I'll make it up to you. Next time you need saving, I'll be the daring rescuer.

Well, I'll do my best to fit into the maiden in distress role, let you come in and whisk me out of danger and off into the sunset, if you so feel the need. Can't make any promises there, though.

It'd really help repair my bruised ego, that's for sure.
