[wounds]

You're nervous? Are you doing alright?

You could've said no.

[blindfoldcode]

I'm eventually going to have to play no matter what. It's easier with you right now than anyone else.

I just don't... like being in the public eye. Even less than I used to.

[wounds]

[He doesn't like putting her in uncomfortable situations.]

Anything I can do to help?

[blindfoldcode]

Start by worrying about me less. [She frowns.] It's just nerve wracking. You know Lesedi's going to be watching us.

[wounds]

... I'm just a worrier. You're stuck with me now.

Yeah, more reason to make this go well.

[blindfoldcode]

Then how is it I've never seen you calmer?

[wounds]

Because I know my dream guy is just as great as I thought.

[You.

Dweeb.]

[blindfoldcode]

I didn't realize that was in question. [You've been so obsessed with him.]

[wounds]

... For a while I though he was the reason my family was killed.

[But it just didn't fit.]

[blindfoldcode]

What?! When? [And why didn't you tell her she feels out of a very important loop.]

[wounds]

After we were captured.

[Because he didn't want to dwell on it.

And because it made him completely miserable.]

[blindfoldcode]

That's why you were acting like that?! You should have told me!

[wounds]

You had your own things to worry about.

[blindfoldcode]

I still care about you, dumbass. I want to know things like that.

[wounds]

It doesn't matter now. It's not true.

[blindfoldcode]

At least it's not. He seems like a decent enough guy. Worried about you.

[wounds]

I hope he'll show up tonight.

[blindfoldcode]

I'm sure he will. I'll try to keep an eye out for him... [Not that her vision's great anymore.]

[wounds]

I'll be on the look out too.

Don't strain yourself.

[blindfoldcode]

I'm fine. Relax. [She rolls her eyes, plucking at the bass again. It's the line to Children Record, this time.]

[wounds]

This is me relaxed.

[blindfoldcode]

Yeah, I get that. And yet you still stress me out.

[wounds]

I can't stop existing.

[blindfoldcode]

[She doesn't answer at first, just playing the bass. Her voice is quiet when she finally starts to sing.]

Taking point, you hide your sense of dread
Stick out your tongue and go ahead
Now it's your turn
Just say the word and then...

[wounds]

[He hums softly along with her, just a backing instead of taking anything over.]
