Maybe I am. But I dunno, isn't it okay if I am? I feel like I have enough crap that I can't let go of that I don't want to collect more. I'd rather...I don't know, try to believe in people? And find a way that we can walk together instead of getting mad and splitting off. It ain't the easiest way, but it's maybe worthwhile?

[ hi, guren. there's a surprised pause as dave is not...sure...how to deal with fatherly affection, but he doesn't tense up or push guren away. he's just momentarily stymied on what to do next. praise and affection are things he desperately wants after his childhood free of those things, but dave never really figured out What To Do Once It Occurred. ]
