[ So, wait, should he be glad that Piper's happy here, even if it means that things must've been pretty shitty back home? Or should he feel bad that this is the better alternative? Man, he is a genuinely terrible person no matter what, huh? And why does he have to overanalyze every single goddamn thing? ]

Well, hey, I'm happier than I'd be if you were in Keystone, too. Guess we have that in common.

[countdone]

Yeah...that's uh, definitely one of the things that's better about this place.

[You know, pretty much the biggest thing, but you give James an inch and he runs a mile.]

[airshow]

[ He's gonna run that mile anyway. ]

Awwwwwwww, you really do like me.

[countdone]

Gee, I don't know where you could've gotten that idea after, you know, all the time I spend with you.

[airshow]

Hey, I hang out with lots of people who'd like to see me get hit by a bus. Personal feelings have almost nothing to do with it.

[countdone]

Yeah, well, no one like that puts up with your shit the way I do.

[GESTURES TO THEIR CURRENT POSITION.]

[airshow]

We can switch places next time [ GESTURES RIGHT BACK ] if that'll appeal to your sense of equality.

[countdone]

How considerate of you.

[airshow]

Maybe you bring out the best in me.

[countdone]

Well, in that case, it's a good thing that I spend so much with you.

[airshow]

Few more years of this and I might even be a productive member of society.

[countdone]

I don't know, that might be too much to hope for.

[airshow]

[ In a few more years he might be dead again so yeah probably. ]

Give yourself a little credit.

[countdone]

[Hahahahaha...ha...]

Alright, maybe you'll be a little productive.

[airshow]

Careful, don't sprain anything being nice to me.

[countdone]

Well, it's not like you want to be a productive member of society, anyway.

[airshow]

Maybe not quite enough to meet your lofty standards.

[countdone]

And yet I somehow like you anyway.

[airshow]

[ What the hell is this FEELING HE'S HAVING? God, how annoying. ]

Careful, someone might hear you.

[countdone]

Well, the rats already know.

[They know everything.]

[airshow]

... Because I like you too, I'm gonna be nice and not ask if that means you gossip about me to a pack of rodents.

[countdone]

If you think about it, you probably don't even have to ask.

[Consider who you're talking to, James.]

[airshow]

So do they have enough built-up goodwill towards me to not nibble my toes while I'm sleeping?

[countdone]

I already told them to be nice to you.

[HOW'S THAT FOR A NON-ANSWER.]

[airshow]

[ For once, James decides, he won't press his luck. He just snorts and snuggles into that pillow and hey, he really is gonna fall asleep riiiight heeere. Lucky Piper. ]
