I don't know. I got all the way to having my knees over the side of the bed, and then it kind of hit me that all I had to look forward to was the exact same things I did yesterday and the things I did the day before that. And then it was an hour later and I was still in bed.
I think so. I mean -- I don't even know when the last time I saw him was. I kind of vaguely remember him when I was sick but ... I don't remember a lot of what happened then to be honest.
[If a picture paints a thousand words, then Kon's expression right now is probably an essay entitled If I knew that, don't you think I would be bothering him? ; A thesis on the whereabouts of Conner Kent.] .
You're staying in bed, in our room, all day instead of going out and looking for him, just so you don't have to come back to our room at the end of the day and remember that he's not here because you didn't find him.
Yeah, he said something similar to me. I threatened to give him dating advice and he retreated but man, was that weird. Definitely filing that under the words I never thought I'd hear Big Blue say.
What do you think brought all that on? Unless he's just taking extra joys in messing with us. I wouldn't put it past him, honestly. We're bad influences.

[Oh. So that's it.]

What happened? Is he...?
[Dead?
Again?][action]

Except that's a good thing, Kon, remember? If he's home, he won't have to suffer anymore. He's safe from Yao. We want that.

Okay, so let me get this straight.
You're staying in bed, in our room, all day instead of going out and looking for him, just so you don't have to come back to our room at the end of the day and remember that he's not here because you didn't find him.
Am I missing something?

I bet you're happy to have dodged this bullet.
[action]
Magicians don't dodge bullets. They catch them in their teeth. ...make what you will of that metaphor.]Speaking of...did you know Kal actually gave me permission to date you or Conner if I wanted to? Just up and out of nowhere.
[action]
... that is one hot metaphor?]Yeah, he said something similar to me. I threatened to give him dating advice and he retreated but man, was that weird. Definitely filing that under the words I never thought I'd hear Big Blue say.
