What up, dorks! You know who it is. Leave a message!

Okay... okay, cool. I'm glad you been hanging out with people.

Been trying, anyway.... but I'm-- fine. Really.

...you don't gotta pretend. If you're not okay, I mean.

I mean... I seem to be doing better than most of the rest of us, anyway.

Not really a high bar to clear.

Yeah, well...

[ just trails off, shrugging weakly. ]

Got it all outta my system already so... I'm fine. I'll be fine. Promise.

You need anything - I mean, if there's anything I can do - lemme know, okay?

... think I've junked stuff up for you enough, yeah?

[ with a smile at least. ]

I'll let you know. Thanks.

You didn't mess up nothing, dude.

I'm not gonna sit here and say I didn't make some stuff worse. I know what I did.

By the time we got where we ended up, it was never gonna end better than that.

Yeah, but... still...

[ huffs lightly, and shrugs ]

Naw, no "still."

We were screwed already. We wanted a better end than that, we needed to've got it together way before then.

... not like we had a lot of time or resources.

Had to've been something. We just didn't find it.

We found plenty.

It just found us, too.

...yeah. Guess that's true.
