Yeah. Being alive tends to be a good thing.

~~Althought sometimes I wonder...~~

Most times. grins

~~I've wondered the same thing myself.~~

How've you been?

I've been....alright. I'm alive, so I guess I should say good, right?

~~It would make things so much easier.~~

What about you, kid? You alright?

You should only say good if it's true, but that doesn't mean it isn't nice to hear.

~~I hear that.~~

Like I said, alive. Can't ask for much more at this point.

I'm right there with you. I'm not really good, but I'm alive, so I that's....something. Something to be proud of, at least.

I know you have to be all secretive and whatever, but...you're ok?

Definitely something to be proud of.

breif smile, ducks head I'm okay.

If there's anything I can do, you know...

I'm kind of out of a job and everything so, yeah. I've got a lot of time on my hands.

Thanks for the offer.

Not saying you can't handle yourself, but it's dangerous. People have a habit of dying around me.

Why do you think I'm out of a job? Trust me, danger isn't an issue for me. Just a part of my life.

The danger is an issue for me and I won't bring anyone into the fold that doesn't already know the situation or have to be there. I'm sorry.

You're a tough kid. It shouldn't have to be like that.

No, it shouldn't but it is. shrugs How the cards are dealt, you play what you can.

You sound way too much like me when I was younger.

Should I take that as a compliment or be worried?

Ordinarily I would say a compliment, cause I'm kind of amazing, but....I'd be worried.

We don't have any plans of letting you die, John.

I didn't mean it like that, Derek.

You know I had to say it though.

That's...ominous.

My life usually comes off like that.

Everything sounds ominous to me lately.

How it goes sometimes. Want to talk about it?

Yeah, well apparently I help save the human race. That's always fun to be told.

watches carefully Doesn't sound like information you should be sharing openly.

I'm kinda new to this whole end of the world thing.
