Yeah.

I mean... I have to be.

[vigilantics]

You don't have to be anything except what you're feeling.

[ ... ]

But I get it.

[ she shakes her head. ]

Everyone keeps saying that we're saving everyone.

If Dick is... Gone... Then I have to focus on believing that. So that's what I'm doing.

[vigilantics]

... we're all on the same team now, at least. Which solves one of the major problems we were having.

[ the only one team can win thing. ]

So from here, we can only go up!

[ or else ]

[applechemist]

That definitely makes the numbers a little easier to work with.

Even in a worst-case scenario.

... Which I'm trying not to think about.

[vigilantics]

... we are definitely not doing the worst-case scenario.

[ she puts the papers down. ]

We're gonna kick that snake's ass so hard we're going to get in trouble for animal abuse.

[applechemist]

Yeah...!

[ she's still very much trying to. downplay her trauma and anxiety right now, so she puffs up a bit. ]

I'm ready to fight that stupid snake! It doesn't count as animal abuse if it's a monster.

[vigilantics]

Right! Let's make purses out of it!

[ isn't snakeskin stuff popular? she does not know. ]

[applechemist]

[ Escha is not familiar with snakeskin things? ... but she is familiar with making Anything out of Anything! ]

I bet it has powerful traits...

[vigilantics]

... yes. I agree with this.
