[makes a grab for the finger]

N' what am I doin', bro?

[but he does sober a bit]

Tell me how big ya want it and I can get it done ASAP.

Uhhhh.

[ looks around in his room. whew. ]

Big enough fer us to make notes an' pin shit to it, but not so big that I can't hide it if someone else comes in here. I figure we keep it in here for now since no one'd come into my room unattended.

I'll do ya one better, I'll make it so ya can hide our notes without havin' to pull it down all the time.

Okay, yeah. That works.

We were gonna share shit 'bout what we know goin' on around here too, yeah? We can put 'em on there too, instead of messagin' each other shit.

Makes sense. Yeah. I was sharin' stuff in Cade's group chat, but . . .

[ trails off. gestures vaguely. ]

. . . yeah. We'll keep this to ourselves for now.

Fer the record, I hate bein' the secret keeper. It fuckin' sucks.

'Course it fuckin' sucks.

[ wait until nue means something and you realize HOW LONG i have been the secret keeper . . . ]

It's bullshit. Ugh. Who'd do this shit willingly?

[boy is he going to hate it]

Beats the shit out of me. I wouldn't be able to do it - 'least not with you.

I hate doin' it with you. I will throw a friggin' party when I don't gotta keep shit up my sleeves anymore.

[huffs a bit]

You never had to start doin' it in the first place, dumbass.

No, uh. I did. I really, really did.

[ AND I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER IF I SUCCEEDED OR NOT!! ]

Just trust me.

. . . I do trust ya. I've kept my mouth shut 'til now 'bout you keepin' shit to yourself 'cuz I trust ya.

[it's one of a few reasons, but the big one]

[ rubs at his hands again, ugh. ]

Okay. Okay. We'll get this board goin'.

[watches him do that, then reaches over to cover his hands with one of his]

I can have it done tomorrow, I'll start it as soon as I get back to my cabin.
