Ah . . . was it Hyacinth? 'Cuz I spoke to him a lil' too.

I don't think it would've been too hard, but - is there anyone here who knew ya well before it happened?

Yeah, Cinth. He had one of those masks from some booth, and it turned him into a real dick on top of that.

[ affectionately ]

Nah, you're the closest I've ever found. On the boat or before.

He did seem more bratty than usual.

[also affectionately. And then, in the same light tone]

So then, I can speak for everyone when I say it wasn't hard at all ta be 'round ya, since I'm the only one.

[

going back in for a hug ]

[aww. Of course he'll hug back]

I don't know what I'd do without you.

[oh, well. He hugs him tighter at that]

You'd be doin' exactly what ya have been.

But 'm glad I can be here for ya.

Maybe. But it'd be a lot harder.

Nah, yer a strong kid. You would've managed just fine.

You really think so?

Y'oughta know by now that I don't say that shit if I don't mean it.

I don't feel like I've been super strong. But I do believe you, so...

As ya should. 'M never wrong 'bout that.

Never?

Never. 'M a good judge of character in folks.

That basically sounds like a superpower.

It does?

Being a super awesome read of people? Why not?

I dunno? Thought it was just bein' observant.

Like I said. super power.

Heh. I'll just take your word for it.
