Heh.

You got me to thank for that, ya know.

[cyke_out]

. . .

I've got you to what?

[canadianclaws]

Ever wonder why she decided to propose right then?

[cyke_out]

Am I supposed to say it was because you weren't there?

[canadianclaws]

No.

It's 'cause I told her she should.

[cyke_out]

Yeah, right.

[canadianclaws]

Yeah, I guess it is pretty unbelievable that she listened to me.

[cyke_out]

Do I want to ask why you would have told her something like that?

[canadianclaws]

Sometimes I can be a decent guy, Summers. I know it's a shocker.

You and Jeannie were good for each other.

[cyke_out]

I wasn't aware she was waiting for your permission.

. . .

Wait, you didn't even come to the wedding.

[canadianclaws]

Advice, not permission.

And I was a little busy at the time. I'm not that good a guy.

[cyke_out]

I'm more confused than ever.

And that's saying something.

[canadianclaws]

Seems to be your natural state these days.

[cyke_out]

Like that was ever different.

[canadianclaws]

One of these days you're gonna get a clue, and the whole damn world's gonna collapse.
