doubt it
it’s alright, don’t really know why it’s illegel but *hic* i don’t really care
*blinks at the hiccup* It has to do with the fact that children are still growing and a full work schedule can stunt their growth. They’re also easier to exploit than adult workers. Do you… do you need some water, Max?
nah, it’ll pass again.. and i’m not wroking a full schedule, this is actually the first time i’ve been called in *hic* in awhile…
It’s still illegal. *he sighs* Unfortunately, I’m not in a position to make a formal complaint – I”m not your legal guardian. I’d prefer that you didn’t work though – not where it’s an illegal situation like this.
i don’t know if i have a ‘legal gruardian’ anymore, consittering i’m not even from this timeline… *hic*
Okay, seriously, we should get you some water to drink. And what do you mean you’re not from this timeline?
i mean this isn’t the universe i was born in, before i was here, i was at a normal verison of this camp then i k-.. died and when i woke up, i was here!
Oh, I see. I suppose that explains for some of the weird occurrences that happen here…
*hic* yeah.. *he glances away* what were we talking about again ?
Water. You’re going to get some. You have some in your tent, right?
probably not *hic* there should be some in the mess hall though
Okay. Back that way we go, then. You should keep a water bottle with you out here in the woods – just in case.
*he nods slightly, starting to walk towards the mess hall* meh, i don’t really need water anymore, i had a water bottle but i lost it..
Is there a lost and found here? I could also buy you a new one. And sure you need water… you’re still capable of dying, aren’t you? That can’t be a pleasant experience.
yeah, but there are way worse way to die..
Better to not die at all though, right? Especially of thirst.
*he hesitates before nodding* yeah, i guess that is one of the suckier ways to die..
How are the hiccups?
i think they’ve passed, so that’s go-*hic* fcuk!
*smiles slightly* They get you just when you think they’re gone.. heh. Sorry, buddy.
*sighs* guess i’ll just have to wait longer.. *hic*
We’ll get that water, and you can drink it through a straw. That should help them go away.
why through a straw? should just drinking water work? *he tilted his head slightly*
Well, when your bronchial tubes are spasming it’s sometimes helps to occupy them with another function, like holding your breath. But sometimes that’s not enough so drinking through a straw works your tongue muscle and your esophagus, and usually the complex functions happening when you drink through a straw makes your bronchial tube forget what it’s doing.
Er, I mean… because science.
