Not exactly. The technology and advances in this world are everything I have dreamed, nay beyond that. And I have Kevin here as well and do not have to worry about what might happen to him back home.
And you are here as well, as are some other people.
[He sighed though, because this was hard.]
But the path to my dreams is still back home and there are other people there. One in particular that I need to talk to. And more than anything, I need to make that right with him.
[He closed his eyes for a moment.]
But there is no use worrying about that until the moment to choose is upon me.
Shit, how's he supposed to express how hearing that makes him feel? This is dumb! It's a normal thing to say, right? Obviously everyone's happy to have their friends around! You just take that for granted, or they wouldn't be your friends in the first place, right? So why does he feel all tight about it? Why does William saying that make it so hard to swallow?
What do you even say to acknowledge that feeling?
You probably just don't. He decides not to, not wanting to risk getting all—sappy or whatever. But after a beat, he does reach over to smack William companionably on the shoulder. It means, you too bro, or maybe more like please don't leave me.
Smack.]
Who even knows what's gonna happen between now and then? Right? That's how I see it! For now all we can do is go with it and see what happens!
[He laughs a little at the shoulder smack, but says nothing. Because no, he isn't going to just leave Leon if he can help it. Granted, such things are often out of one's hands. But as long as there is a choice...
But do what you can and all of that.]
Exactly. If one ignores their present life for the future, they will live to regret it. So let us make sure to prosper together.
