sometimes the outcome you end up with isn’t quite what you expect.
oh, sure, you hope for the best. everyone does. but hope don’t pay the bills.

but you make do. or try to make do. because what else can you do? you don’t have a choice. so you muddle through as best you can, and keep hope alive for that much longer.

l: she’s still out… been out the whole way home, i don’t… ricky, what if she doesn’t…
r: calm down, luka. she’ll be fine. she’ll wake up and be fine, okay?
l: if you say so… shit. i knew that was a bad idea, i knew it, i –
r: luka. you’re not helping.
l: … sorry.
r: i… [sigh] look, i know we’re both freaking out, but just… we have to think positive. or something. pep talks aren’t really my strong point.
l: yeah. alright. i-i’ll try.
r: her mom and dad are here, they’ll keep an eye on her for the rest of the night. we’ll… come up with something to tell them about what happened later. tomorrow. let’s go home for now.
l: but –
r: there’s nothing else we can do here right now, lu.
l: … yeah, you’re right. i’m just so worried.
r: i know. i am too.

r: it’s been like two days and it’s still glowing.
d: freakshow…
l: guys, my gut instinct is telling me ‘bail, and bail right now and fast.’
d: wait… it’s changing.
r: are those… is that writing?
d: it doesn’t look like regular human writing…?
r: that’s definitely not the king’s alphabet.
l: we should go. we should go now.

d: well. here we are. you guys ready?
r: as we’ll ever be, i guess.
l: you absolutely, positively sure about this, dae? like… there’s still time to bail. just say the word and we’re outta here.
d: i… no. let’s just… let’s do this. before i totally lose my nerve.
r: … okay. let’s go.

l: so…
r: so.
l: we can’t do this, you guys. we don’t even know if it’s possible to be un-possessed by the Weird Things after the fact. what if whoever goes through with it ends up possessed forever?
r: i know, i know. i just –
l: ricky. rickster. saint rick. listen to me. this is a bad idea. the worst idea, in fact. we can’t do this.
r: i know, it’s just –
d: i’ll do it.
l & r: wh – what?!
r: daem, you can’t –
l: you can’t!
d: it was my idea from the start, right? so it’s only fair.
r: daem…
l: d, seriously. haven’t you ever heard that taking one for the team is a bad thing?
d: i know. but… look. i want to figure this out. plus, think about it, if we find a way to stop the Weird Things from showing up, we’ll save the town and everyone in it, right?
l: bad idea. bad, bad, bad idea.
r: … if you’re serious about this, then okay. i’ll go with you. 
l: ricky.
r: we can’t let her do this on her own, right, luka?
l: i… ugh. fine. but i want it on record that i said this was a bad idea. numerous times.
d: noted. thanks guys. 🙂
