Part 857: Brady B

Nah! You all right?

B-Brady? I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?

Uh, because you nearly drowned back there? You sure you're okay?

Absolutely. Really, I'm fine... Thanks to you. At least, I heard it was you who dove in and saved me. My memory is still pretty hazy.

Ugh, who told ya? I asked everybody not to make a big thing outta it...

But it is a big thing, Brady! Especially to me. So, thank you.

Aw, it was nothin'.

Nothing? I could have died!

Not sure how. That water was three feet deep, and that's bein' generous.

Augh... Please, don't remind me. I'm embarrassed half to death as it is.

What about me? I heard you shout for help, so I dove in thinkin' it was deep! Nearly telescoped my damn spine!

......

But, hey, I guess we both pulled through. Just be careful in the future, yeah?

...You're worried for me?

What? W-well, sure, Nah! We're on the same team, ain't we?

You're actually really sweet, you know that?

What? Where'd that come from?

I had you wrong. I thought you were colder. ...Scarier.

So you WERE scared of me! I knew it!

But not anymore! Now I know you're really a good, kindhearted person!

Gah, stop already! I ain't used to praise. It feels almost as weird to hear ya say that as it does you calling me scary!

Good people should be recognized as such. ...Which is why I'm making a point of telling everyone in camp what a sweetie you are. (leaves)

Hey, hold on! You don't gotta be tellin' no one nothin', see?!
