You contemplate responding to Dave, but you decide it would be the best idea to, considering we all know you really want to.

TG: alright dude i got most of this shit packed

EB: that's great, dave! so seriously, what is the earliest flight you can catch?

TG: dunno man

TG: ill go check that now so be right back

You're now Dave, once again. You just finished packing, as we're all aware, and John has asked you what the earliest flight is, you were curious about that yourself. You honestly can't wait to get there and give John a big ol' bro hug. You minimize pesterchum and get onto some random flight booking website. The earliest flight you can catch is in a month. Your heart sinks. You begin checking other websites, but it's all the same. All of the flights are booked. How are you going to get to John? You have no idea. Maybe Lalonde has some ideas. You don't want to tell John the bad news yet though, so you think you'll talk to Lalonde before you go and crush the idea.

TG: lalonde

TG: dude you know everything so i like

TG: need help here

TT: Need help with what, exactly?

TG: okay so i was gonna spend christmas with egbert

TG: but all the fucking flights are full

TG: i don't know what the hell do to

TT: Sounds like you're in a bit of a pickle.

TT: How many flight service websites have you checked?

TG: about ten

TT: Well, I don't know what to tell you.

TT: Unless you're willing to walk, or have someone willing to drive you...

TT: But I really don't recomend the walking part.

TT: You may just freeze to death.

TT: After all, it is getting quite cold in some areas.

TG: i wasnt planning on walking god dammit

TT: Don't get snappy.

TT: You asked for my help, and I'm giving you all I have.

TT: Would you rather me not help you at all?

TG: im desperate right now

TT: Alright then.

TT: You're not old enough to drive, none of us are. We're only thirteen.

TT:  Do you have anybody close that may be able to give you a ride?

TG: dude my only family is bro you and your mom

TG: and then again im still not sure if thats even true

TT: It is, now hush a moment and let me think.

TT: Actually, let me get back to you on this.

TT: Go finish packing, I have an idea.

You continue to be Dave.

Rose just left you hanging here in anticiation.

What could she possibly pull out of her sleve this time? You have no idea, but she usually has the answers to all of your proplems. It's like she can see the paths of the future, and know which one will lead to the thing you're hoping for. She likes to refer to herself as the Seer of light. Whatever that means. John is blowing up your phone again. Can't this kid wait for a fucking hour? You love him, but sometimes you think he deserves a good kick in the face. You decide to ignore him for now because Rose is pestering you again. You can't help what to wonder what she has to say.

TT: There is a bus system.

TT: The Greyhound bus system.

TT: It may not be the ideal transportation, but it will get you where you need to be, I hope.

TT: I would hate to see something happen to your Christmas plans.

TG: oh my god

TG: why didnt i think of the fucking bus system

TG: i could rondhouse kick myself in the face right now

TT: Please, that would mess up your face.

TT: I don't think John would be to happy about that.

TG: whatever

TG: anyways im gonna go finish packing

TG: thanks rose

TT: Anytime, David.
