[1ST] lookup - plenty of new things to learn

[riderpedia]

[There is a young, somewhat femininely dressed young man wandering in circles outside the farmhouses, reading a book. Were someone to catch a glance at the book, they'd notice the pages were all blank. Even so, he seems completely enthralled in what he's reading. He's either very good at pretending, or there's something going on that isn't

[Another man sits beside the farmhouse, reading a book.

Unlike Phillip, this is a physical book and in a rare moment of eating his lunch, he catches Cougar in a moment of not speeding around on foot or in a car.]

...

[Suddenly, Cougar bursts out in laughter!]

That's how the world works.

The faster you do things, the more you can get done! It's the way the world works!

[riderpedia]

Though if you rush through everything too quickly, it's possible to miss out on things you enjoy.

[shortentheworld]

I said fast, not sloppy.

You need to do it fast and completely, not fast and half-assed.

[riderpedia]

No no.. that's not what I meant at all. You shouldn't ever do anything sloppily. You'll make mistakes.

But there are somethings that are wort taking time to enjoy.

[shortentheworld]

But you can enjoy more things if you get done with other things faster.

[riderpedia]

There are some things important enough that make missing out on other things worth it just to enjoy them longer.

[shortentheworld]

You're entitled to your opinion, even if I don't like it.

[riderpedia]

I agree with you for the most part. There are just somethings I regret not enjoying longer when I could have.

[shortentheworld]

Not me.

[Other people involved in certain events would disagree.]

[riderpedia]

It's good that you've been able to live without regrets. Even some of the best men cannot say that.

[shortentheworld]

...

[Cougar pauses for a moment and puts his glasses back on.]

No regrets.

[riderpedia]

It's hard sometimes.

[shortentheworld]

It's not fun if it isn't hard.

[riderpedia]

...Sometimes it isn't fun, either.

[shortentheworld]

Can't be helped.

Some fun or no fun at all. I'd rather have some than none.
