"Josh!"
He looks up.
It's Tyler, and for once he looks somewhat happy.
Excited, even.
"Josh!" he says again.
"What?" he asks.
Tyler shows him something, a symbol that's all too familiar.

"But that stands for-" Josh says.
"Yeah," Tyler says, rubbing his hand where there's still a faint scar. "But...if you turn it upside down..."

"It's something completely different," Josh says.
Tyler nods. "They've tried to force their false ideas on us. But we can turn them upside down still!"
Josh smiles. Just a little bit.
"You're right," he says. "We can. They don't control us."
Tyler draws something else on his paper. A circle.
"Now it is different," he says, looking at Josh.
"It is," Josh says.
And that, that is progress indeed.
