Yeah. She deserves to know.

[cyclists]

Hopefully it goes okay. And if it's done, I'll know, and I can give you what you asked for...if you decide to use it.

[leaberator]

Well, worse that can happen is she gets mad at me. Wouldn't be the first time.

[ ha ha. ]

[cyclists]

If she does, just tell her you're doing it for me. [...] I tried to tell her a few days ago, but I can't. It has to come from you guys.

The rules of this place are seriously getting annoying.

[leaberator]

[ haha, he won't do that. ]

"Getting"? Where have you been? I've been annoyed this whole time.

[cyclists]

You know what I mean. [An eyeroll.]

[leaberator]

I know. Look, don't worry about it. I'll handle Xion.

[cyclists]

I know you will. [He seems assured of that, at least.] ...thanks.

[leaberator]

Don't thank me for doin' the bare minimum, man.

[cyclists]

[...]

I don't see why not. But fine.

[leaberator]

'Cause friends don't have to thank friends for doing that kinda stuff, silly.

[cyclists]

I know. But that doesn't change what I said. I've asked a lot of you, and Xion and Naminé, too. I can acknowledge that much.

[leaberator]

It's not like it ain't stuff we wouldn't have done anyway.

[cyclists]

I know. [Just. Let him acknowledge he's grateful for the assist, damn.]

It'll be fine. All of it.

[leaberator]

You think so?

[cyclists]

[This is before trial and memshares and all sorts of shit, so.]

Yeah. We'll figure it out together like always. [A beat.] Tomorrow...it's going to be tricky to balance. Think you'll be ready?

[leaberator]

Don't got much of a choice, do I?

[cyclists]

Nah, not really. [There's a grin though.]
