04 🍎 Some cats, they know how to fight, some cats run

So let’s get this straight. Giant monsters attack cities all over the Pacific Rim [aaah he said the title!], slaughtering hundreds of people in destructive rampages, and three-quarters of you dive headfirst into glorified suits of armor to punch and shoot them.

Right. More proof that the lot of you are crazy.

You, me, Monopoly. What do you say?

I am calm. Just wondering what's up with you, is all.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

It's the schadenfreude. It's fantastic.

[tucky]

I don't know what that is.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

And I will still feel this way when you're done looking it up.

[tucky]

What if I don't wanna bother?

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Then you stay in the dark.

[tucky]

Fine by me.

... My warden's a good guy. He ain't rubbish at all.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Never said he was.

[tucky]

The idea that he's a hero ain't rubbish, either.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Yes it is. There's no such thing as a hero.

[tucky]

Bull-fucking-shit.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Truer than Gospel.

[tucky]

Don't talk about the Bible with me.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

I was talking about heroes.

[tucky]

I know. Still don't use those Bible analogies; they ain't gonna get me to change my mind.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Truer than... Huffington Post?

[tucky]

I don't even know what that is. But unless it's not true at all, then no.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

If you believe nothing else I've told you, believe this: there's no such thing as a hero. There are people who help you and people who hurt you.

That's it. No matter what they do it's all people and where they stand.

[tucky]

Yeah, and he helped me enough that I'm considering him a hero; fucking deal with it.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Ooh, tough call. I'll lose sleep over this.

[tucky]

You're a dick.

Go fuck yourself.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

Yes, I am.

Only if you admit you wish you could.

[tucky]

Who says I couldn't? You think I'm pretty.

[sauntervaguelydownwards]

You've got pretty going for you. What else?

[tucky]

Plenty of stuff, I don't know. Ain't that for you to tell me?
