Was everyone who went to check on the Pillar altered somehow...?

What happened down there?

[He hesitates. It hasn't really seemed like anything good came out of going down there. Except for, you know, the whole No More Pillar thing.]

...

If there's anything that I can do... I will. Police should help those in trouble. Shouldn't they?

[deadlydoctor]

Wow, I can tell already that you will be a great detective.

No, those are nicknames but they work the same. Bunny calls me Red anyway.

[thxforthememories]

What's that supposed to mean?

Just use their real names.

[deadlydoctor]

Nothing, nothing.

I like my way better.

[thxforthememories]

Your way is more confusing.

[deadlydoctor]

My way is also less formal.

You aren't the best at social interactions, are you?

[thxforthememories]

I do fine.

[deadlydoctor]

You could do better.

You are as serious as Ratchet sometimes, you need to let go and relax. Do you have any hobbies?

[thxforthememories]

I look after Kay.

Does that count?

[deadlydoctor]

The little thief girl? [He likes her.]

Yes, she probably needs someone to look after her.

[thxforthememories]

Yes.

She does. We're family.

[deadlydoctor]

How sweet. Did you get her a Christmas present?

[thxforthememories]

...

What?

[deadlydoctor]

Christmas was two days ago. On Earth people who are family give each other presents.

[thxforthememories]

Two days...?

[He shakes his head a little. He'd thought it was -- that's weird.]

She hasn't said anything.

[deadlydoctor]

The 25th. I think Christmas was that day? I don't have all the humans holidays memorized.

Perhaps it's not important to her then.

[thxforthememories]

I wouldn't know.

... Last time, Gunmax kept track.

[deadlydoctor]

It's not really all that important.

You miss him? I thought you didn't get along.

[thxforthememories]

Why does it matter to you if I miss him or not?

[deadlydoctor]

I take that as a 'yes'.

[thxforthememories]

Take it how you will.
