[ Yes, how dare he not let Tim get himself roasted alive by his childhood friend. ]

Yes, well. I'd say I've gotten it right a lot more than I've gotten it wrong.

[ Present company as an example. ]

[alwayskayaking]

Hopefully you can stick to that track record. I'm worried it's going to come back and bite you hard in the ass one day.

And not the fun kind of biting.

[massrez]

It has. More than once. It probably will again.

But I won't stop trying.

[alwayskayaking]

And I'm afraid that will sooner than later get you killed.

[massrez]

[ Now you sound like Wrathion, Tim. ]

Perhaps. But I wouldn't change anything.

Besides, didn't you charge a full-grown dragon with an axe to try to rescue me?

[alwayskayaking]

Yeah, and maybe next time I won't be there to fail to help again. Which is why you need to be more careful.

[massrez]

I'm always careful.

But I won't turn my back on people who need help.

[alwayskayaking]

I know you won't. Just don't let the people won't don't actually need help fool you.

[massrez]

I like to think I'm a fairly good judge of character.

[alwayskayaking]

I'm sure you believe that. [Tim isn't so sure.]
