You're tense.

[trickor]

I don't mean to be.

[captainkink]

I figured. Something on your mind?

[trickor]

Nothing so specific, no.

[captainkink]

Okay.

You know you can tell me anything, right?

[trickor]

I know.

[captainkink]

Then we're good.

[trickor]

You...worry. So very much. Why?

[captainkink]

Who else is going to worry? Besides, I signed up for it.

[trickor]

So long as you remember you need not stay out of obligation.

[captainkink]

I wouldn't.

[trickor]

Don't.

[captainkink]

I won't.

[trickor]

Good.

[captainkink]

[ he doesn't say anything to that. ]

[trickor]

[they can both just sit there in silence, then. at least it's a pretty comfortable silence]

[captainkink]

We've hit a point of no return.

[trickor]

Captain?

[captainkink]

Nothing. Just talking aloud.

[trickor]

Come now. Do share your thoughts.

[captainkink]

I was just being cynical. Nothing big.

[trickor]

Cynical how?

[captainkink]

How? I don't know. Just -- relationships, I guess.

[trickor]

Relationships.

[captainkink]

What? You know what I mean.
