Of course she is. And not a problem, all the colors you can think of.

You’re the best mate I’ve ever had, Ravi.

You too, Ryan. I'll see you soon.

Peyton is a super hero. Can you bring extra crayons? I don’t think we have enough colours. Make sure they’re bright.

Of course she is. And not a problem, all the colors you can think of.

Okay!!! Peyton is bringing us colouring books! You can colour with us, Ravi!

Peyton? And I would be honored to colour with you.

Charles needs pictures to hang in his house, Ravi. The walls are bare. He needs bright colours to simulate him!

Of course he does, what a foolish question. I'll be there as soon as possible. Stay where you are so I can get them to you quickly. 

I’m fantastic, Ravi. Like, on top of the world. Except we need colouring books. And Lucky Charms and story books. Are you going to help us? You should.

Sure, I can bring you whatever you need. Can I ask why you need these things, though?

[pm] Yeah, I’m glad, too. I think we can probably manage dinner, sure. Probably have to wait until after things calm down a bit, though.

[pm] Of course. Once this is all over, we will go out and celebrate. 

[pm] Thanks. Yeah, yeah, go ahead and gloat.

[pm] I told you so. And I'm glad you are happy. You both deserve to be. Perhaps all four of us can go out to dinner sometime?

[pm] Well, um… Mallory and I talked tonight and now we’re sort of… together.

[pm] Really? That's excellent, Ryan. I'm not usually one for gloating, but I think an I told you so is in order.

[pm] Well, yeah, all that stuff still sort of sucks, but… there’s good things happening, too.

[pm] I could hear a few good things right now, if you're willing to share.

I'd rather not.
