Well.. Yeah. You've got a couple people, I imagine, that won't waver regardless of the whisper campaign, and we're back at the doorstep of 'They can't come to you for help if you're not there'. I mean - I know they still can, but seein' you in there is better, in my opinion. Makes you more accessible.

I don’t understand why I always have to live in shame for other people’s bad behaviour.

[tinstar]

You don't. You're not responsible for their actions or their choices. You shouldn't be punished for them either.

[abrightboy]

But I am.

[tinstar]

Yes. You are. It ain't fair and your options are limited amid a situation you can't change. So do you spend time arguin' about how it ain't fair or do you get on with your day?

[abrightboy]

I’ll get on with it. I just. Wish her rampage could be stopped.

[tinstar]

Yeah- [The word is sighed out, heavy and tired from the whole ordeal and his day in general.]

I know. I'm gonna do what I can, with what little weight I got to kick around, but.. It's her choice. We gotta live with it for now.

Thank you, Raylan. For helping me.

[tinstar]

'Course. You're my brother. I love ya.

[And that's not something that Raylan Just Says either.]

Go have some tea and relax for today. Focus on what's gotta happen in the next few hours, let tomorrow deal with tomorrow. And I'll talk to you then.

[abrightboy]

[He knows it’s a rare and fragile treasure. He smiles down at the table.]

Okay. I will. Talk to you then.
