6th Spell [Audio]

[taintedtalent]

Ya know, there are times I wish I could drink without it killing me. This would be one of them.

[This is the most melancholy Reese has ever sounded. After months he's still here, and the feeling that he might not actually get out of this one is beginning to creep up on him. More than that, more than any of that, he's lonely.]

Gettin' fuckin' tired of milk.

[taintedtalent]

Hey now fella I ain't doin' a thing. This is all you.

[yolonceler]

You're acknowledging my rather serious case of foot in mouth dise -

Not that I have -

[NOW THAT IT'S BEEN BROUGHT TO ATTENTION HE CAN'T STOP]

I'm going to stop talking forever.

[taintedtalent]

[He's just going to start laughing now. Thanks Once-ler, he needed that.]

[yolonceler]

[Glad he could be of service.]

Are you done.

[taintedtalent]

[Give him a few more moments.]

Alright, yeah, I think I got it all out.

[yolonceler]

Hope you feel better.

[taintedtalent]

Feelin' pretty good actually. Thanks fer that.

[yolonceler]

[Wait that's not sarcasm? Awesome!!]

Oh, uh, you're welcome.

[taintedtalent]

[See? Saying stupid things can be good sometimes.]

Yeah, I needed that.

[He'll be missing Ada again soon enough but for now he's got a smile on his face.]

[yolonceler]

Glad I could help, even marginally.

[taintedtalent]

Maybe ya ought to take a career in entertainment fella.

[yolonceler]

I almost did, but my mom said I wouldn't make it as a musician.

[taintedtalent]

What, and ya listened to her?

[yolonceler]

Well, she was right, y'know? But it doesn't matter anymore, because I made it as a businessman.

[taintedtalent]

Tell me ya at least tried it out.

[yolonceler]

Uhhh, I was in a few musicals, and I wrote a few songs, but it didn't go anywhere.

[taintedtalent]

[Well at least he gave a shot then. Reese can't fault him for that.]

If ya say so, but ya really don't have to worry about that in a place like this do ya?

[yolonceler]

Right, yeah1 No pressure here. Everything's totally chill.

[taintedtalent]

[He wouldn't go that far but he won't kill Once-ler's attitude.]

Definitely don't gotta worry about anyone tellin' ya what to do with yer life.

[yolonceler]

That is the best part.

[NO MORE RESPONSIBILITY WOOHOO]

So, hey, uh, Reese - what did you do back home?

[taintedtalent]

[Now how does he explain this one?]

I help people.

[That's not vague.]

[yolonceler]

That's pretty vague.

[taintedtalent]

I fight cartels, destroy cults, kill criminals. I help people.

[yolonceler]

[Wow.]

Wow.

[That's intense.]

That's intense.

[... KILL CRIMINALS OH NO ONCIE IS SOOO GONNA DIE]

What sorta criminals?

[taintedtalent]

Killers, rapists, drug dealers, all the bastards that the law can't catch.
