Episode 107

[spongetastic]

I thought I understood, but I guess I still needed a lesson. Maybe it's just been too long. I forgot. But I get it now.

This place... What's it really doing to us? All of these things that happen, the experiences we have, why bother? What's the point if not to help us grow and change? If it even means to help at all.

We're lucky for that much.

[spongetastic]

I wouldn't call it lucky, since most of the time what we deal with isn't very pleasant.

[gottaknockhard]

Well, as long as you learn from it.

[spongetastic]

Mm. So, you ever get those cigarettes?

[gottaknockhard]

[... Yes. He also snuck out that side window he mentioned -- except none of that ever happened.]

Which ones?

[spongetastic]

Whichever ones you like. I don't know much about brands.

[gottaknockhard]

[Not much of a nurse, then -- don't say it.]

I can normally find some way to get by.

[spongetastic]

That doesn't surprise me.

[gottaknockhard]

You always have to think about survival.

[spongetastic]

And you need cigarettes and whiskey to survive? [he's just teasing. Sort of]

[gottaknockhard]

It helps. [Joking, only not.]

[spongetastic]

I'll remember that for next time. Maybe I'll keep some in my medical bag for emergencies.

[gottaknockhard]

That's not a bad idea.
