[this is so funny but here i am too]

You okay?

[ she looks pretty down, with people missing again... ]

I'm alright...

[He doesn't really think he has anything to make her feel better at the moment.]

Listen... it's okay if you aren't. This is heavy for me too.

I had hoped the first time would be the last.

That this week would be different.

I was really hoping too.

... But I think we're gonna be doing this for a while.

Without even understanding why...

Do you think knowin' that would help?

It's easier to fight against things you understand.

Right now it feels like we're all blind to whatever's really goin' on.

Whatever is happening is happening behind a curtain. We can only hope it's drawn back, eventually.

Wonder if there's a way to force it down.

Maybe. But it's a matter of whether or not we can find it.

Where would we even start with that...?

I don't know.

[ i'm 11 what do you want from me!!! ]

[I'm 600! It doesn't get better!]

Somethin' to think about.

Hopefully we don't just sit here thinking about it until it's too late...
