[Nick's voice is raspier than usual, the way voices get when their owners have been screaming, or crying, or possibly both.]

You know what, you motherfucker? I'm coming back to haunt your ass after I'm dead. See how you like it.

Goddammit.

[Nick exhales sharply through her teeth.]

Not you too.

Haha yep, sorry. [lloyd why are you apologizing for being buried alive.] Otherwise I'd definitely come and get you out myself, count on it!

If I get outta here I swear I'm gonna kill that asshole.

Ah, it's not that bad, Nick! [lloyd what, no.] I mean it's kind of boring, but I'm sure everyone else will get us out soon.

Yeah, right. I'm sure everyone knows exactly what they're doing, too. Any minute now, they'll be digging us up.

Exactly! Everything will turn out okay, I'm sure of it.

The concept of sarcasm is totally lost on you, isn't it.

People tell me that a lot.

OK, well, for the record, sarcasm is when you say something and you really mean the opposite. So when I say "oh, that's great, I love being fucking buried alive," what I actually mean is "this sucks beyond the telling of it."

I know what sarcasm is.

Apparently not, if a lot of people say it's lost on you.

I guess I just don't see the point most of the time.

It's sarcasm. Being sarcastic is the point.

But isn't it usually about saying the opposite of what you mean? Why wouldn't you just say what you mean instead?

'Cause it's boring? Fuck, I dunno. Because it's a thing you do, you're thinking too hard about this.

I guess I just don't like it when my friends try to use sarcasm to distract me instead of just asking for help.

... I don't need your help, kid.

[Is easily the biggest lie of at least the last five minutes.]

Maybe you don't need it, but I want to give it to you anyway.

That's what friends do!

I don't want your help either.

[... no, that's the biggest lie of the last five minutes.]

I thought we went through this already, kid. I'm not good at being a friend.

Then I'll just have to be a good enough friend for both of us. [you think he's not capable of that? he's more than capable of that.]

[Nick sighs loudly, and the grumbling tone she uses now carries with it a note of resignation.]

You're really irritating, you know that?

[you can't see it right now but lloyd is beaming.]

My friends usually tell me that when I'm right about something.

Yeah, well. Don't come crying to me when this all blows up in your face or whatever.

Don't worry, I won't!

[nick his last best friend temporarily sided with the bad guy and kidnapped one of his other friends and that didn't even throw him. basically you have no chance.]
