He was.

I suppose the worst part is he was already thinking of ... life. After everything. Arguing about schools, what he wanted to do, plans. I don't know that I've been able to do that myself. I am going to miss him greatly.

[camena]

Yeah. He told me he was homesick. I'm homesick too.

So it's comforting to talk about that stuff, even if you know it's not happening. It's fun.

[frogzoned]

I know. I feel the same way.

If you are able to go home, what would you like to do?

[camena]

Go to college. Probably in town. Stay where my friends are. I don't know.

What about you?

[frogzoned]

I think you should. That sounds good. A worthy endeavor to stay where there are people you care about.

I don't know.

The world is ending. There are people I need to say goodbye to. So hopefully at least that.

[camena]

I'd been thinking of leaving. And my friend was mad about it. And he's mad about more, now. But it's still a nice thought.

Just... ending? Just like that?

[frogzoned]

Just like that. I would like to see it stopped, to save it all, but I don't know how possible that is. It's most likely too late already.

[ he's been oversharing a lot with teens lately, so, might as well continue. ]

Leaving isn't so bad either. My wife - Elody - left our kingdom. When she needed to fight. She was always braver than me. So I know I am the one who will suggest doing nothing, but it isn't as if I know anything.

There has to be something you can do.

This isn't how fairytales are supposed to go.

[frogzoned]

I think the problem with fairytales is often what comes after. They don't tell stories about things like that. So you have to make it up as you go along.

[camena]

No but isn't that the whole

point of "Happily Ever After" like

things are just good from then on?
