AH: XDXD Man, seriously. XDXD
AH: XDXD You've never made these kinds of conversations easy. XDXD
AH: XDXD Look, it's really obvious that you're up to something. XDXD
AH: XDXD I'm not sure what it is, and I'm not sure I WANT to know what it is, but I sure as shit don't like the smell of it. XDXD
GS: Again, I must reiterate.
GS: Delusional.
AH: XDXD Am I? XDXD
AH: XDXD Why all the goddamn secrecy, then? Why all the shady deals and forward thinking tirades?? XDXD
AH: XDXD You're not slick, you know. XDXD
AH: XDXD Even if rocket science wasn't a dead and defunct field, I still would've been able to figure it out. XDXD
GS: Figure "it" out? The only thing you've done is make assumptions about me.
GS: You've concocted the pieces of an imagined mystery, which you yourself have directly stated to know nothing about.
GS: It reflects worse on your character than it does mine.
AH: XDXD Argh! Okay, back up. XDXD
AH: XDXD This is getting away from both of us. XDXD
AH: XDXD Let me give it another shot. XDXD
GS: Fine.
AH: XDXD If there's anything I'm not sold on, it's that there's a mechanism in this game that'll tell you what you actually need to hear. XDXD
AH: XDXD So... bear with me. XDXD
AH: XDXD Because I'm not saying this to try and kickstart some sort of internal twelve-pronged self-destruction mechanism. XDXD
AH: XDXD It's for your benefit as a person. XDXD
AH: XDXD Here goes. XDXD
AH: XDXD Nobody likes you anymore. XDXD
GS: Wow.
GS: I hadn't noticed.
AH: XDXD Let me finish. XDXD
GS: Oh, please. Do go on.
AH: XDXD You have painstakingly severed yourself from every relationship and stringy fiber of connective tissue in our soul circle. XDXD
AH: XDXD Because you feel wronged. XDXD
AH: XDXD And y'know, in a lot of ways, I recognize that's kinda true! XDXD
AH: XDXD Maybe there's even more to it that I don't get! I'm not the omniscient arbiter of righteousness. XDXD
AH: XDXD But speaking as your FRIEND, your BUDDY, your COMRADE and truthfully the ONE PERSON WHO ACTUALLY KNOWS YOU AND WILL STILL STICK HIS NECK OUT WAY FARTHER THAN IS REASONABLE FOR YOU. XDXD
AH: XDXD I know when you're going too far for something that's just not worth it. XDXD
GS: A sound motivational poster.
GS: Now all you need is a point.
AH: XDXD I've got one. XDXD
AH: XDXD From here on out, I'm keeping an eye on you. XDXD
AH: XDXD And on everyone else too! But you especially. XDXD
GS: I'm touched.
GS: I'd been wondering where all the guardian angels had gone.
GS: Presumably, they were on strike for the longest while, but I see that's not the case anymore.
AH: XDXD Hey, an out is an out. XDXD
AH: XDXD Get it while the gettin's good. XDXD
GS: Well, you make such compelling points that I'll just have to craft a damn timesheet for us.
AH: XDXD Hah! That's right. XDXD
GS: May as well give me a list of your favorite villas.
AH: XDXD The hell is a villa? XDXD
GS: It's a decadent place where upstanding citizens of culture go to meander and eat posh cheeses, pondering the circumstances which brought them to the brink.
GS: I find myself in desperate need of one to consider why I'm still entertaining this conversation.
GS: Perhaps it's nostalgia, the root of all evil.
AH: XDXD Okay. XDXD
AH: XDXD Now, I don't say this lightly, but... maybe you should try taking a page out of my hideous scrapbook and stop pretending to be something you're not? XDXD
AH: XDXD Honestly, I don't even think all of your changes were bad! Like, in the abstract. XDXD
AH: XDXD You used to be a sniveling, neurotic toadie, and I was a naive nitwit way too deep in their own head. XDXD
AH: XDXD And I think beneath all of your bullshit, there's just as many good parts of you as there are maddening, infuriating ones. XDXD
GS: Are you trying to insinuate that you want to fix me? Like a delicate broken vase?
AH: XDXD I'm trying to say that I should've been there for you. XDXD
AH: XDXD You've never made these kinds of conversations easy. XDXD
AH: XDXD Look, it's really obvious that you're up to something. XDXD
AH: XDXD I'm not sure what it is, and I'm not sure I WANT to know what it is, but I sure as shit don't like the smell of it. XDXD
