Here there be Spoilers for MTMTE #6

[rememberme]

I know why you're doing this. Why you're really doing this, but I'd like to address that later. And while I can't say I approve of your methods of finding balance, that isn't what I want to talk to you about today.

I'd like to direct your attention to my current physical state; the one you intend for my arrival (if we're accepted).

Now I want you to ask yourself something: Is this honestly, completely necessary? 

You are aware I'm going to be at a rather ... pronounced disadvantage, but have you taken into consideration the long lasting effects of your decision?

That's something I'd like you to think about.

Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

[Cough]

Just for the record? NOT my intention at all.
Also Rod was screaming at me.
And I think the ship shuddered a bit.
Plus I think Fortress Loopimus did.... something. That threw me off.

Sorry.

[This is. All so awkward. This is like. The WORST time to talk to patients. Or take on new ones.

And you can bet your spoiler, Rung thinks you've got 'new patient' spray painted all over you.]




It.
Was a very stressful situation.

I believe you.

[Swerve needs a gag, not a shrink.

...although, someone who has to listen to him talk and can't escape. There's a certain appeal there.]

Really?


Oh man, that's a relief. I was worried you'd go all vengeful spirit on me there.
I mean, can you imagine? Trying to tell someone I was being tormented by the ghost of Rung? They'd think I'd pissed off the spirits of the ladder or something.

[Listening to people talk is what he lives for. Otherwise he wouldn't have kept Red Alert on as a patient those last 6 centuries.]

I...

[This... this is why he never goes to your bar, Swerve.]

I'm glad you're doing fine.

[cantshutup]

I dunno if I'd say fine. I mean, yeah. Shot someone I knew in the head. Not completely my fault but still. Kinda puts a damper on the day, ya know?

[See, you got at least a good second or two of silence]

But hey, getting all morose and introspective and... you know... [hand flails] Prowl about it won't help any.
And I'm really that you're also doing fi- well. Uh. Better than dead.

[rememberme]

For the record Swerve, my door is always open if you feel you'd like to talk about what happened.
