Nny "I WANT you to start college and a career and go on fun dates. I WANT you to move on; surround yourself with real friends and a loving family for once--
You'll forget I ever existed and it will be the best thing to ever happen to you."
Squee "NO! I would NEVER do that to you."
Nny "You wouldn't?"
Squee "NO.
I do want to grow up and do all that stuff, but I want you to still be around through all of it."
Nny *sniff* "You really don’t."
Squee "Yes I do. You want to know how I'm afraid it's all gonna go down? One night, I look out my window and a whole squad of cops are dragging you out of your house in handcuffs--
The last time I see you is in a court room. And, I'm sorry, but I never say one goddamn word in your defense."
Nny "I wouldn’t expect you to."
Squee "You're sentenced to rot in solitary for however many lifetimes, but long before that, you somehow manage to carve a bunch of other inmates or prison guards into chunks with a broken plastic spoon or a shank you craft from a leftover steak bone--
Then they strap you to a table and stick a needle in your arm. That's how you die alone."
Nny *lighthearted laughter* "Wow... Fret not, Squee. Maybe I can’t escape the horrors, but I'm a pro at escaping the cops, ok? There will be no arrest. I will have slaughtered half the squad and the remaining officers will have shot me dead before they can stuff me in a cop car. On a bad night."
Squee "Either way the best friend I ever made is ripped out of my life forever. I won't be able to recover from that."
Nny "Jesus, you really worry about all that stuff?"
Squee "I worry about everything, all the time, in general but, yeah, that's like, in the top 5."
Nny "You worry about me?"
Squee "Yeah. A LOT."
Nny "You consider me your friend?"
Squee "Y-yeah... I'm your friend too. I don't want bad things to happen to you. I don't want to see you in pain... Maybe this is my dumb wishful kid brain talking, but I believe things can get better. It may take a shit ton of hardship and every step of the way will SUCK, but things can get better. They HAVE to or things will get worse...
I will help you any way I can for as long as I can, I PROMISE, but you Have to meet me halfway. You HAVE to STOP doing crazy shit like this!! I'm sorry-- I'm not trying to shame you or judge you or guilt you, I just--"
-bloop of an ended call--
Squee "Damn it."
"Excuse me?--"
