Gordon is nervous, and heads for the stairs, speaking a bit loudly so the team can hear.
I-it’s uh- it’s been a long day so- so i’m just gonna head to bed-
Tommy was closer to the stairs than the others, and he grabbed Gordon’s arm so he could at least try to talk to him.
No. N-No, you kn-know what? I’m done. You need- You need to talk about this, this is get- it’s ab-absolutely ridiculous.
T-Talk about what? There’s n-nothing to-
Gordon i-if you say one more word of that- of that sentence.
!
Y-You’ve got to face it at some- at some point. I-If you keep dodg- dodging it, you’re gonna regret i-it. You did before, an-and don’t tell me you d-didn’t. You have- have a second chance here. Don’t- Don’t waste it.
He lets go of Gordon, who stands there for a moment watching him, then looking back to the others, before ascending the stairs without another word.
God dammit n-none of these bastards have a- have a single braincell between them. I got- gotta do all the thinking a-around here.
I don’t know what you’re muttering about but doll boy here fell asleep. Also Coomer and I are going home, we’ll meet up with you guys at the fest tomorrow.
Ok B-Bubby. I’ll handle Benrey, see- see you guys tomorrow.
