you don't think the risk is worth it, to escape from this place?

[everempty]

No, I don't.

And what are you running towards, Nate? You have a life here with people you love. Business, pets, boyfriends. All of these things. Are you planning to bring all these things with you? Do your boyfriends want to come with you? Will you go with them?

What's your goal?

[guylining]

my freedom, thorn. their freedom

you don't think that matters? we were trapped in hell for so long and all we were trying to do was get out

the people i love, i'd love to keep them with me. it should be their choice, though, they should be able to choose where they go instead of just having this place and its caste system forced on them

[everempty]

Why not stay here and fight the system then than escape?

Will freesom guarantee you any of those things? How does being trapped in their home world grant them the ability to choose? It's just a different prison.

[guylining]

fighting them never gets anywhere, they just squash it all before we can

not that trying to escape has ever done any better, it's just

i have to do something. i have to, i can't just sit back and do what they say and never even try.

[everempty]

Then plan. Study. Attack.

Don't just rush into things without a plan.

[guylining]

we've been planning the ship for months, thorn. they were planning it since before i was even involved.

[everempty]

And the plan for after?

[guylining]

we have to see where we get with this first. we have to see if there's a chance to escape this way at all, or if it's just another dead end.

[everempty]

What do you expect to find? A magic door with a sign that reads 'Back to your world here'?

What if you pass into another dimension without realizing it? What if another demon grabs you again?

What are your contigency plans if there's no door that tells you to turn back before its too late?

[guylining]

anything could happen. any number of things

the point is that if we don't go then we don't know what's possible or what the dangers are

we're never any better off
we're just stuck. always, with no end unless our overlords decide to let us out

and i can't live with that. i just can't.

[everempty]

I know.

You're right.

I'm just anxious of something happening to you.

[guylining]

you could come?
i mean if you wanted

[everempty]

You'd want me along?

[guylining]

since i met you a day hasn't gone by that i haven't wanted you.

[everempty]

You don't have to be so charming about it.

I would feel better if I were there taking the risk with you. Like we did in Hell together.

[guylining]

come, then. i'll talk to the captain, his name's jack.

[everempty]

Then consider me a sailor I suppose.

[guylining]

not just a sailor. a pirate.

pirates are cool. i'll buy you a hat.

[everempty]

Don't pirates plunder? Are we plundering?

[guylining]

doubtful, i don't think there's a navy out there

no we're rebelling against duplicity authority and searching for something new
and maybe fighting a sea monster. we'll see.

[everempty]

Ah somewhere I can be useful. Fighting a sea monster.

[guylining]

there's something very wrong about that being the bright side...

[everempty]

I detest being useless.

[guylining]

and maybe you wouldn't mind having something to fight?
