[He rolls his eyes.]

Shut up. So at least we have a one-time-save on both of us. That helps a little.

[He glances at the oven then.] Are they done?

Yep. [ he'll just get them out...

he learned from ignis so they should be good??? he'll plate them up and glide over to the table, though. ]

...I won't get you killed again, though.

[He's eyeing these little pastries, but the conversation isn't lost on him.]

I am not really that concerned about that. I already know you're going to do everything possible to make sure it won't happen.

[ dave sits down at the table, taking his own pastry. ] Yeah, just. I'm still sorry, y'know?

[He's blowing on his own pastry to cool it a bit.]

Let me ask you this. If I said "sorry I wasn't fast enough to save you" what would you say?

[ he sets his pastry back down and props his chin on his hand instead. ] You already know and I know you know. [ ... ] Point taken. But if I said to you what you know I'd say, would it make you feel any different?

[A shrug.] I don't know. I think you and I have developed a really bad habit of being reckless for each other, but I am also not sure I want to stop that.

...I always had that. [ MAY AS WELL COP TO IT. ]

We'll talk about why that is worrying later. So...what do we do about that? There's two of us who are like that now. Should we be worried?

It's just kind of part of - [ a shrug. he doesn't feel like explaining, and anyway it's not really a huge concern. ] It's not a thing I know how to stop doing about you. You just...matter too much to think straight when it comes to shit like that.
