All right I definitely get that we have a big moral dilemma about the whole thing with the folks in Zymandis breaking out and causing a real mess at Oska and did we do the right thing and now we have a big fight coming up, but I have a real big need here.

I'm out of liquor. Went through it all, it's all gone, and we're still on this cat planet and they don't have anything like, say, cat bourbon or whatever.

Please tell me someone has something.

You? Capable of art? Don't make me laugh.

[fateality]

So judgmental! Dancing's an art, and I'm very good at that, tetrad.

[fourscores]

Passable. I doubt you like dancing enough for it to help you right now.

[fateality]

I definitely don't want to, nope.

Why so invested in helping me out, anyhow?

[fourscores]

[It's not at all because he knows what it's like to want something you can't have. He just had to endure it for years with monks hovering around him. It definitely isn't that. It's just keeping an eye on Fate and that's all.]

Am I not allowed to be nice? My mistake.

[fateality]

I can't help but think there's an ulterior motive is all.

[fourscores]

Your lack of trust in me is insulting.

[fateality]

Don't take it too personally. I don't tend to trust a lot of people.

But thus far, I don't have a reason to think otherwise, now do I?

[fourscores]

What possible reason could I have? Helping you doesn't benefit me in any way.

[fateality]

Whatever you say, tetrad.

[fourscores]

Suppose you better get to finding an alternative on your own.

[fateality]

I can cover myself without your idea of help.

[fourscores]

As though you know what my idea of help is.

[fateality]

Guess it'll be a mystery.

[fourscores]

Guess so.
