[talim]

I hope you're right.

[ jude locks his hold on 9s a little tighter, head leaning against his shoulder. ]

[deem]

Try not to worry too much, alright?

[Leave that to him]

[talim]

... Mm. I'll try.

[deem]

It's challenging, I know.

[The eternal struggle to worry less]

[talim]

I know you know.

That's exactly why I'll do my best.

[deem]

You always do your best.

[This is an observable fact]

[talim]

[ this is not untrue. ]

Well... you still help motivate me to keep at it.

[deem]

Giving me a lot of credit there, but I think you're just that kind of person.

[Doing his best as a matter of course]

[talim]

And now we're just going around in circles.

[deem]

Well, I like the company, so I don't mind.

[Go figure]

[talim]

I guess I don't mind, either.

[ and they continue to go in circles... ]

[deem]

[At least they're not walking in circles]

You guess?

[talim]

I mean I don't.

[deem]

You didn't sound too sure there for a second.

[talim]

Pfft. You're just picking at words.

[deem]

I'm a details kind of guy.

[talim]

[ jude is just going to poke him in the cheek. ]

[deem]

What's that for?

[Not that he objects, but it seems to serve no purpose]

[talim]

Because I don't think I have anything more to add to this conversation. You're just a serial flatterer.

[deem]

You say that, but I'm just saying what I observe.

[talim]

[ doing his best 9s impression: ]

Yeah, yeah.

[deem]

[He huffs]

I'll keep right on saying it and meaning it too.

[That'll show Jude]

[talim]

I'm sure you will.

[ yep. that'll show him. ]

[deem]

[Now that that's settled...]

Should we go back to the house, you think?

[Mission complete and all]

[talim]

Where else would we go?

[ as soon as jude realizes what he said, he asks himself just when 9s' home starting becoming more familiar than his home. since before the flood, surely. ]
