*he shifts slightly, looking out the window* I-I’m cold…
Try to stay awake, Max. Talk to me, okay? I’ll get you to a doctor soon and they’ll take care of you.
*he pulls the coat around himself tighter, shaking softly* i don’t th-the doctors…
What is it, Max? What do you want me to tell them?
tell ‘em to be less.. weird and creepy…
Weird and creepy…? *starts the car and starts driving*
*he nods, glancing at Carlos*
What exactly do you mean, Max? How are they being weird?
*he looks out the window again, mumbling something about ‘scary’*
I’ll be with you, Max, I promise. I’ll take care of you.
*he hesitantly nods* o-okay..
Keep talking to me, Max. We’re almost there.
h-how close are we..? *he shifts again*
Almost there. What do you like to do, Max? What do you like to read, or watch? *they weren’t actually as close as he’d like but he wanted to keep Max busy*
*he shakes his head slightly* i-i don’t watch or r-read alot of stuff.. mostly just vines.. b-but i like drawing i guess..
Okay. What did you draw recently? Can you tell me about that? *just five more minutes.*
t-the shadows.. things from m-my
nightmaresdreams…i-i don’t remember what else
You drew me recently, didn’t you? That was very nice of you. I like that picture. I still have it in my tent, safe.
