Swing Life Away

Sorry, but it wouldn’t have been as funny as that reaction.

You are....very rude.

Wow, who knew you were so poetic? I find out new things about you every day, it seems.

Well what can I say? I'm a secretive man.

I, uh - I’m not really sure. Someone has to be sorry for all of this, right? Someone has to be sorry for all of the lives that have been taken. Someone has to remember everyone who has fallen. We can’t just forget them…they can’t just be another number added to the total. — I’m sorry, I don’t know where that came from. You can just ignore that and walk me to Rations.

I know exactly how you feel Scout but there's nothing we could do about this. Feeling sorry and remembering those who we have lost are two different things, Scout. We just need to accept what has happened and try out best to move on, think that those people are in a better place now. Remember them but don't feel sorry. Hey, it's okay. You know you can talk to me anytime you want. Sure.

Rude. I’ll have you know that I’m a delicate flower that many wish to water.

Well then Mr. delicate flower, you should go find one of those people before you wither away...

Ah come on dude, you’re no fun. I actually think I left my knife in that couch, so that’s why I’m here — making sure you don’t get stabbed in the butt.

What! You could've told me that earlier.

Someone has to be, right? — Um. Actually, that’d be helpful. You don’t have to, of course, I can be alone it’s just…that’d be really nice of you.

Why would you say that? Of course, I'd love to .

Does this mean you’re rejecting my offer? Because I can go and find another bestie, if that’s what you’re saying.

Good luck finding someone who can handle you other than me.

Actually, where I’m standing all is good.

Alright then, do whatever you please.

Yeah…yeah, of course. Just got to breathe, right? Gotta calm down. S-sorry…I’m just not myself today. Maybe I can sit down once I get to Rations but I have to be there soon. Thank you, though, for the advice.

There's no need for you to be sorry. Hey, it's no problem. Do you need me to come along with you? 

Hey there, calm down. It's okay, I know what you mean. Just sit down and try to clear your head.

Who said you’re allowed to keep secrets from me? I thought we were “besties”, or whatever.

Please don't talk like we're a bunch of high school kids. I mean besties? Really?

Sucks for you then.

Aren’t I always? Anyway, what were you trying to think about — or is that top-secret information that you can’t share?

Not really. Top-secret. No one can know about it.

No.

Don’t think too hard, David, you could hurt yourself.

Ha. Funny.
