I think everybody likes to feel liked.
And important.

[medals]

that's true.
sometimes it gets a bit much for me, though. being uh
perceived?

[sunmon]

I know what you mean.
It sort of makes you want to crawl out of your skin.

[medals]

yeah. that's exactly it.

[sunmon]

Sometimes, I have to be convinced.
To get past that.

[medals]

i usually lock myself in a dark room for a couple days. does the trick.

[sunmon]

Oh, yes, that seems healthy.

[medals]

it works!

[sunmon]

For a certain definition of works.

[medals]

you're being very judgey of my coping methods!!

[sunmon]

Sorry, sorry!
I'm only teasing.

[medals]

i wish we had cd players here
or phones.
the dark room experience has to have loud music, too. i can't really show you if the experience isn't ACCURATE

[sunmon]

Wasn't there music at Lottie's party?

[medals]

oh
was there?
we're not really acquainted?

[sunmon]

Really?
I thought she and House and John were very close.

[medals]

i've never seen her around here.
i mean house has a record player? here. but he's very protective of it. like a proud father.

[sunmon]

[ hm. she doesn't quite like that. there's a pause. ]

Be careful, okay?

[medals]

[wilfully ignorant:] oh, i never touch his records. don't worry.

[sunmon]

That's not what I mean, Jem.

[medals]

i know.

[sunmon]

He's ...
Older.

[medals]

almost ancient, really.

[sunmon]

By a certain scope.

[medals]

john is much older than he is.

[sunmon]

All the more reason to be careful.
