sciencest...
Call it a hunch?
badbatter...

badbatter...
>ughhhhhhhh
badbatter...

Hmm.
sciencest...
Why don't you want to eat, then?

badbatter...
I don't feel like it.
badbatter...

If the stuff I make is /bad/ then I can always get it from somewhere else...
sciencest...

N-No, it's... Not bad.
sciencest...
Really?
badbatter...

sciencest...
Ahhhhh.

I thought I forgot...
badbatter...
Forgot?
badbatter...
Because you don't eat?
sciencest...
Ohh, yes.
sciencest...
It's only for fun when I do these days.
sciencest...
> + Tragic Backstory but Anyway
badbatter...
Oh.
badbatter...
... I never learned how to cook.
badbatter...
I didn't think it mattered.
sciencest...
It's kind of theraputic?
sciencest...
But eh. Also a lot of effort.
sciencest...
Doesn't hurt to learn the basics, though.
badbatter...
Sure it does.
badbatter...
I set my kitchen on fire once.
sciencest...
Oh?
sciencest...
... Ohhh, that's what that mark there is......
sciencest...

sciencest...
Anyway.

There's a bed though, rejoice?
badbatter...
I mean. I guess.
badbatter...
I've been having trouble sleeping again.
sciencest...
Mnnn.
sciencest...
You're always so wound up. I suppose that's why.
badbatter...
Maybe.
badbatter...
>sinks into the couch as he keeps eating
badbatter...
I don't like sleeping.
badbatter...
Being dead would be easier. Probably.
sciencest...
Being dead's no fun at all.
sciencest...
> smiles and reclines
sciencest...
You'll be forced to work until your eyes burn out and you can't even remember who you are.
sciencest...
Sleeping's a foreign concept in that kind of world.
badbatter...
I'd rather have that.
badbatter...
Do mindless work and not have to think about myself.
sciencest...
Sounds like pure torture.
sciencest...
> sighs slowly
badbatter...
Yeah.
badbatter...
Sounds nice.
sciencest...
Oh, trust me. Even if it sounds appealing now, the experience would be anything but.
sciencest...
So I've heard.
sciencest...
> leans his head on his hand
badbatter...
Existing is a horrible experience.
badbatter...
What's worse than this.
sciencest...
What makes /this/ so horrible?
badbatter...
Not. Not being with you, just. Everything before this.
sciencest...
Life can be shitty, I guess.
sciencest...

badbatter...
What's so good about me.
sciencest...
It's just nice.
sciencest...
Spending time with you.
badbatter...
Why.
badbatter...
I don't do anything.
sciencest...
You're good company?
sciencest...
You don't have to /do/ things to be good company.
sciencest...
You just have to /be/.
sciencest...
So congrats.
badbatter...
I don't want to be.
badbatter...
I want to hang myself.
sciencest...
I know.
sciencest...
That's why I'm here.

sciencest...
I'm here, you're not dead, and that's great.
sciencest...
But I know you're still miserable.
sciencest...
I can't make you /not/ miserable. You have free will for a reason.
sciencest...
Just wish I didn't suck at my job so much.
sciencest...

You. You don't suck at your job.

I. I'm just horrible.
sciencest...
Oh, Batter.
sciencest...
You're not horrible.
badbatter...
You feel like shit because of me, that's...
sciencest...
No, no.
sciencest...
Don't blame yourself for that. Really, I'm fine.
sciencest...

Biiiig and powerful and wooonderful divine entity here. I can manage.

No.

You wouldn't mind if I stayed then, would you?

Stayed?

badbatter...
Or.
sciencest...

Can't do that. They'd snipe me.

Just... a while longer, I suppose.

Oh.

Until you feel better.
badbatter...

badbatter...
Maybe I'll never feel better, then.
badbatter...
Keep you here.

Hahaha. Oh, Batter.

I guess we'll see.

badbatter...

sciencest...

For the meanwhile though, I hope you'll allow me to help you still.
sciencest...
Even if it is just making meals and keeping you company.
badbatter...
...
badbatter...
Are there... Other ways you want to help me?
sciencest...
> shrugs
sciencest...
I guess that's up to you.

I'm flexible for the most part.

So no, I can't kill you.

Do you ever dream, Batter?
badbatter...
... Sometimes.
badbatter...
It's part of why I never sleep. I don't like my dreams.
sciencest...
Ah, I see.
sciencest...
I think I did too, a long time ago.
sciencest...
Not sure if I was fond of them or not.
sciencest...
But I do hope that you like yours tonight, if you do have one.
badbatter...
You don't remember?
badbatter...
... What do you remember?
sciencest...
No, not really.
sciencest...
It's been a while.
sciencest...
I remember... water.
sciencest...
I don't much like water.
badbatter...
Oh.
sciencest...
Maybe it comes with being a skeleton. Can't swim.
badbatter...
Because you didn't learn or because it's impossible?
sciencest...
Aaanything's possible if you put your mind to it.
sciencest...
But I don't know. I suppose it'd be really hard for me. And I find no reason to learn why.
badbatter...
To... Swim with me and make sure I don't drown?
badbatter...
I might drown.
sciencest...
Oh, do you like swimming?
sciencest...
> he looks curious
badbatter...

Uhh...
sciencest...

badbatter...
I can't recall either, but I know what you mean.
badbatter...
You got me before I could jump off a bridge. I guess you didn't need to learn how to swim for that.
sciencest...
Yes, I did.
sciencest...
And before you took a running leap with that noose.
sciencest...
Also that time you ran out to oncoming traffic...
sciencest...
