So… your brain just… stops?

[cactusy]

Yeah. It's nice.

[abrightboy]

My brain doesn’t stop in there. It never stops.

[cactusy]

I've gathered that about you. The inside of your brain must be exhausting.

[abrightboy]

Yeah. It helps to have something outside of me to focus on.

[cactusy]

[Like murder. Like Will.]

If you say so-- I'm no therapist. Luckily for all of us, right?

[abrightboy]

Your lack of kneejerk emotions wouldn't be a disservice in that field, to be honest.

[cactusy]

Therapists are supposed to be way more patient and understanding than me. Faking my way through the mental health courses in pre-med and med school was hard enough, and I didn't even have psych patient contact.

[abrightboy]

But you've spent enough time with me here to say you have now! [He can make the jokes!]

[cactusy]

[And she lets out a soft snort of amusement. Success!]

Maybe they'll give me an honorary degree, huh?

[abrightboy]

Next time we see Neal, he can make you one. Authentic enough to work as a therapist in any state.

[cactusy]

[He just gets an audible gagging sound at that.]

[abrightboy]

Or you could stick to shooting people for the government but hang it in your office to confuse people.

[cactusy]

You think I have an office?

[This is apparently more important than "You think I still work for the government?"]

[abrightboy]

Where else would you keep your collection of really big guns?

[cactusy]

The fridge, mostly. The kinds of places I rent don't have gun safes.

[abrightboy]

…You keep your guns in the fridge? Just… just because people won’t look there?

[cactusy]

That's one reason. I also didn't keep a lot of perishables around, so it was easy storage.

[abrightboy]

There wasn't a danger, if you had to grab one quickly of it heating up on firing too quickly and cracking the casing from the temperature change?

[cactusy]

I didn't keep all of them in there, just the spares.

[abrightboy]

You don't carry that giant one around with you.

[cactusy]

Giant guns are always spares except in active combat zones. It's dumb and impractical to carry around something like that in an environment like this.

[abrightboy]

Do you take it out in the Enclosure for fun though?

[cactusy]

You know me, Bright. I don't go into the Enclosure for fun.

[Just when she's feeling particularly stubborn about forced exposure therapy.]

[abrightboy]

Can I try it some time?
