I do not, either. It is too easy for all of us to lose our tempers when it is like that, and it just makes things worse.

[boxcar]

In a closed crowded space too. It's just...

It is a lot.

[jiaohua]

Yes. And even if you do manage to step outside for a bit while it is all happening, it's to investigate a murder, and we have had so many fires that it is hardly a chance to get fresh air...

[boxcar]

The fires were okay.

[ Dude who went to a place that was on fire. ]

I just prefer getting to step outside.

[jiaohua]

The fires were preferable to being in the church with all of us?

[


y'know, fair.]

[boxcar]

They were handle-able fires.

Being inside that long with so many people especially when things get tense is... uncomfortable.

[jiaohua]

...to say the least.

You spend a lot of time looking out for the rest of us, Marcoh. Who looks out for you?

[boxcar]

Huh?

[ He blinks. What kind of question is that. ]

...I think you all look out for me too?

[jiaohua]

...I don't know. You seem like the sort to overwork yourself if someone doesn't force you to take breaks, and I suppose with everything going on I'm concerned that it might slip our minds.

[boxcar]

...I can handle it.

[ He promises. ]

I prefer it over being empty-handed.

[jiaohua]

...I hope you are right.

[boxcar]

I promise. I have my own ways of handling stress.

[jiaohua]

...I suppose it would be disrespectful of me to keep questioning it.

[boxcar]

It is nice of you to be concerned.

...Thanks.

[jiaohua]

Of course. I don't think I can protect you the way you've said that you will for me, but... I can at least try to check in and help take care of you where I can.

[boxcar]

Seeing that you're alright is all I need.

...I know some people have a hard time believing that, but I mean it. If you feel are feeling alright, then that must mean I'm doing something right.

[jiaohua]

...taking that in reverse... these past two Fridays must have been more difficult for you than nearly anyone else.

[boxcar]

...

No, it doesn't feel good.

[ Especially knowing they just kind of slipped out from under your nose and died while you were forced to be unconscious. ]

[jiaohua]

...I thought so. Hopefully... hopefully we will find some way of preventing this from happening again.
