how old actually are you? i dont think ive ever asked
best guess or w/e

[snikthatch]

I was born in the 1880's so however old that makes me

pretty sure it makes me old enough to be your great great great grandpappy

[extent]

well i like 'em a little bit immortal

p sure the o'broins were off being irish bog witches back in those days or like whatever they do on that side of the continent

[snikthatch]

maybe you just want to make sure we're not going anywhere

[extent]

are you?

going anywhere, i mean

[snikthatch]

pretty sure I'm not actually immortal

I met an older version of me once and he wasn't exactly getting around like he should have been

[extent]

huh, so its like. really slow ageing i guess? a stretched out timeline? or it just catches up with you

i meant more like
with me

[snikthatch]

figure it's all three

why would I go anywhere?

[extent]

i dont know

its been a while, sometimes things yknow
i'm not exactly used to long term

[snikthatch]

neither am I

but we haven't made any promises to each other

[extent]

yeah
i guess we havent

[snikthatch]

so maybe it'll be easier like that

[extent]

do you think it is?

[snikthatch]

[ There's a.. decent pause there. ]

no

not really

[extent]

do you just want easy?

[snikthatch]

kid if there's anything I've learned about love, it's never just easy

even if you want it to be

[extent]

yeah, i think ive learned a little about that too

do you like
i mean do you ever

want promises?

[snikthatch]

I try to not make a habit of making promises I can't keep

or of asking for them either

[extent]

thats not what i asked

[snikthatch]

I don't want you to make any promises you can't keep

[extent]

ok

so what would you ask for
if you could ask for anything

[snikthatch]

world peace and an endless supply of beer

[extent]

if you dont want to answer you can just say that

[snikthatch]

I want you to stop getting hurt, especially on my account

but I can't stop any of that just by wanting it, right?

[extent]

doesnt mean you can't want it

but for the record i don't get hurt by you
