I realize this is sort of coming out of left field. It's so far left that it's left the field and into the parking lot adjacent to said field.

But.


Is there anyone here who could help me build a catapult?


It's for a friend.

Look, all I'm saying is that I could get mad right now, but he's going to do it anyway so I'm saving my energy for when it actually happens so I can get mad then.

They tell me it's called maturity. Not sure I'm a fan, but what can ya do?

[neverfeltbetter]

Fine. I won't be helping him make it.

[Even though he totally could.]

I'm sure we'll know when someone has.

[surfaceshine]

Spoilsport.

Come on, we could put an airfoil on it.

[neverfeltbetter]

What was that about being mature?

[surfaceshine]

Did you catch the part where I'm not a big fan of it?

[neverfeltbetter]

Yeah, I did.

And, I don't care what Ned says; I ain't helping him make a potentially dangerous toy for his sword happy buddy.

Beyond that, I got no say. I'm almost sorry I asked.

[darknessb4me]

Look, I'm sorry, alright?

[neverfeltbetter]

Yeah, yeah. I know. The flood made you do it.

[darknessb4me]

Yes, because I used to be that. I'm sorry.

[neverfeltbetter]

So that was you of the past. And you of the present doesn't approve of his actions?

[darknessb4me]

Yes.

[He hasn't killed someone for fun in like... days.]

[neverfeltbetter]

[He strokes his thumb over his lip thoughtfully. After a moment his hand drops away with a sigh.]

Okay. I accept your apology. But it doesn't mean I'll be turning my back on you anytime soon.

[darknessb4me]

Fair enough.

[neverfeltbetter]

Anything else?

[darknessb4me]

Do you really want to see what I can do with a pair of knitting needles?

[neverfeltbetter]

I'm sure I can just imagine.
