Because while they're here, they'll do you good.

[quadrangle]

[Only a wiggler would be reassured by some trite bullshit like that, but... well, he's kind of reassured. Goddammit, Alfie.]

... Yeah. I guess you're right.

[devoutish]

And if they do disappear, you'll find more friends; you won't be on your own. You're less cantankerous than me.

[quadrangle]

[... HE'S STRANGELY INSULTED.]

Uh, no? You just think that because I haven't been as big an asshole to you. I mean, you're a fucking adult. And a gangster, but it's mostly the adult thing. I'm just scared I'll say or do something to piss you off even if you've already said it'd have to be something major for you to retaliate.

[devoutish]

I never said you weren't cantankerous at all, did I.

[quadrangle]

No, but it's the principle of the thing. And you haven't seemed all that cantankerous to me? I mean, maybe a little when we first spoke, but not much since then.

[devoutish]

Mm, yeah. That's something that'll depend on who you're asking, I suppose.

[quadrangle]

Yeah, and there's plenty of people I don't want to ask. Still, you get what I mean.

[devoutish]

Do they really think you're all that bad, where you come from?
