Shit, are you... is there anything I can do?

[faultlesscon]

Quite frankly? The answer is no.

Don't believe you'd want to, anyway. What've they done to you, Alex?

[and_another_war]

I was put into a trap almost immediately.

[A shrug]

Obviously I escaped, but... I dunno, it's all messed up.

[faultlesscon]

How so?

[and_another_war]

They made me admit some stuff. It sucked.

[faultlesscon]

What happened if you didn't?

[and_another_war]

[and_another_war]

[faultlesscon]

I believe we established the fact that this place is shit.

If I can't handle it, then I'll be back in a few days.

[and_another_war]

Yeah, I guess.

Yeah, doesn't mean I can't think it's shitty, though.

[faultlesscon]

It's not like I don't already lose sleep in this place--hell just wants to push me to death at this rate.

[and_another_war]

Yeah, I know.

[A pause]

Well, if you do die, I hope you come back quickly. That sounds so weird saying that.

[faultlesscon]

I appreciate the sentiment, as odd as it does come off as.
