Me Too. I hope they made some bacon.
i dont think we’ve met. name’s Ralph Wolf.
You never know.
Simba.
I imagine that it is. Of course I do, why would I want to be with someone that is predictable? I like a little excitement in my life, especially in this dump. Oh I still worry about you, but I guess it’s just in different ways and I guess it’s not something that can really be helped. I think worrying comes along with loving someone, even if you don’t want to worry you can’t help but do it a little bit. Simba, you don’t have to feel guilty for coming here, it’s not like you did it on your own accord. I know she isn’t a fake bitch, and I know it was out of line for her to say, that’s why I got so angry with her. It didn’t help much when she came back a week later and slapped me. And believe me, I know you two are friends I can’t even tell you how many times she repeated that you were her best friend. Yeah, Buzz was trying to make me feel better the other night. He’s been such a good brother to me. It helped a little but it was only temporary. I knew it wouldn’t really be better until I got to talk to you. And I was right, you have a funny way of always saying what I need to hear when I’m upset. I know it’s just you and me, I just wish people would leave you and me alone. First there was Nala and Hercules and then her. But Nala actually apologized to me the other day about what she had said. So nothing is going to happen with us right? I mean, when you break out of this place you’re still.. I’m going with you, right? *smiles pulling him into the cafeteria* Well you don’t have to wait much longer. *nudges for him to go in front of her* You need food more than I do at the moment. You go first. I’m glad to hear that. Especially with the games that you like to play with people.
Excitement is everything in a place like this. Without it, we’ll all go insane. Well… even worse than we already are. You shouldn’t. I’m still here, and I’m healthy and I’m fine. That’s all you should be worrying about, and none of it’s wrong… so it doesn’t matter. I get what you’re saying though- I worry about you too. But I worry more about Kuzco trying to get his fucking hands on you. It doesn’t matter what I have to do. The thing is, I don’t want to be in this place. I never have, but people make it a little more bearable. I don’t know why other people don’t think so. I’ll go talk to her if you want. She slapped you? Are you okay? -laughs slightly- Best friend? I thought that was Eric. But considering the fact that she never would admit it, I’ve got to go rub that in her face. Buzz is great. He’s… just what you need as a big brother. I don’t think he likes me, but that’s okay- not many people do. Well, I’m here. Do you feel better now? A funny way of making things better? I don’t think so. Nala doesn’t know what she’s talking about. She’s just being bitter because of who I used to be and who I am now. Because she still thinks I’m this petulant little kid who drags her off to graveyards to look at elephant carcasses. And Herc just wanted the best for you. You know that, right? She did? That’s… a change. I tried apologizing to her. Three times now, and nothing works. It’s like she really doesn’t care about me at all anymore. Think you can keep up with the rush, Meg? If so, then of course. I’m taking you and Timon and we’re gonna go out and find Pumbaa. Then we’ll see what we can do from there. With the games I like to pla- that was a one-off. I was bored. You don’t actually think I would’ve been killed by Russian Roulette, do you? -picks up a bowl of cereal, turning back to her- I’m smarter than that.
Okay, then. You’re just grumpy, then? Or should I just drop the subject before you get mad at me? Yes, sometimes it takes years, but eventually, it’ll happen. Your wishes do come true. Why wouldn’t he be proud of you? You’re here getting better, right?
I’m nothing. It won’t, because the things I wish for will never come about, don’t you see? And that fucking sucks. You really believe that? These pills aren’t working- they’re just sedatives.
Where’ve you been hiding?
I told you, I’m good with this kind of thing.
My darling you are many things but predictable isn’t one of them. I like that about you though. I like not knowing what will happen with you. Every time I think I know how you swill react to something you surprise me in the most wonderful ways. Yeah well it was especially true this encounter. It didn’t help that I was upset about my father, and then Hercules randomly disappearing without even a goodbye. Then she went and called Ella a fake bitch. *sighs shaking her head* Yeah, Buzz said something similar to me. I tried not to let what she said get to me, but it was just really hard. She told me that I wouldn’t be able to keep you around, that I was too boring. She said that I was just some miserable bitch that is only trying to prove that I can care about someone. And the worst of it was that she kept repeating over and over that you deserved so much better than me. That was when I slapped her. I tried to tell her that she was wrong and that she didn’t know what she was talking about but she wouldn’t believe me. And I think that’s what got to me the most. That she didn’t believe me, that people don’t see what we have and how special it is. *sniffles giving him a soft smile* I bet you are hungry, with all of that sleeping you’ve been doing I bet you haven’t had any time for food. That’s another reason why I was worried about you. Can’t have you dying of hunger on me, can I?
I’m glad. Being predictable must be extremely boring. You do? Then that’s good. That tells me that you don’t worry about me much… and that’s great, actually. I don’t like people worrying about me… you can just think about my resentment toward coming to this place. That’d just show people that they were actually worrying about me… and it just makes me feel guilty for ending up here and… that’s not good. Ella isn’t a fake bitch. That was.. out of order of her. She’s my friend though. Buzz said something similar? Well, that makes sense, I guess. You’re not boring in the slightest. I like you just the way you are. Without having to liven up or anything, because you’re great just being you. I don’t care what I deserve. She doesn’t know what I’ve done. I don’t think I deserve you. At all. It doesn’t matter what other people think of us, Meg. It’s you and me. Not them. Just you and me. Yeah, I’m really starving, actually. Let’s go. I won’t die on you. I don’t die.
Bad? Who said anything about you being bad? Yeah we don’t really get along. Never have to be quite honest. *nods* We were talking about Ella and she had had enough and she turned to walk away and then called out that she would say hi to you for me. She said some really harsh things Simba, about us, about me. Oh good! I like the sound of that already. *takes her arm in his* What are we going to have for breakfast?
Okay then, am I really that predictable? Well, I knew that much. I think everyone in the whole asylum knew that you two really didn’t get along. That’s… well, considering I was completely out of it, that would be pretty hard to do. Well, you know what they say. If you can’t be like someone, you envy them. Don’t beat yourself up over it because it’s not true, whatever she said to you. -starts to walk toward the cafeteria with a grin- It depends on what’s there. But I’m hungry as fuck, so whatever, really.
Coming from you those words don’t surprise me, and I am actually a little happy to hear you say them. I don’t normally resort to slapping people, but I just snapped I guess. *chews on her lip* It was, Esme. I started it I guess, I was defending Ella and then she brought you into it and it escalated… Yeah sure in their eyes it would have been perfect, but not for me, not for you either. *gives a soft grin* I’m not sure about the havoc but I’m pretty sure getting them to love you gets them to stop running. *nods* Okay, let’s go get some breakfast.
Really? Am I really that bad?
It’s okay to snap sometimes, Meg. I do it. Far too frequently, but yeah. I do it. Esme, huh? Well… that’s… great, I guess. I know you guys have kinda… clashed. She brought me into it? What happened? What did she say about Ella? Esme’s… she’s nice. To me, at least. We both have the same… hobbies. Okay, I’ll go to the doc later and get them changed. At least then I’ll be able to spend more time with you. Breakfast sounds good.
I did something stupid. Well, it wasn’t stupid at first. But I, I got into a fight with someone and they said somethings that really got to me and I slapped them. I’m so glad to hear that! I really wish they would stop trying to give you sedatives. You’re right they don’t fix anything at all, and the rest of the asylum might not care but I really do miss seeing you around when they make you sleep like that for a long time. I’m pretty positive that you can, part of it was because I had some stuff that I needed to talk to you about and you weren’t conscious to start a conversation with.
You did? Well that’s… I probably shouldn’t say this, but good on you, Meg! Yeah, I really shouldn’t say something like that. Who was it with and what was it over? It would’ve been perfect, really. I mean, how else do you stop someone from running away or wreaking havoc? Just… sedate them. It’s the best fix, except when they figure out what’s happening. Well, I’m here now. Let’s go get some breakfast and talk about it.
Oh no, I know you can, it’s just you were sleeping a lot and I tried to wake you a couple of times and nothing I tried worked. Oh um, I’ve been going through some mood swings I guess, I’ve been either really um, upset or seriously irritated. Some stuff happened and it messed with me a little bit.
What stuff? Don’t worry. I’m going to get my meds changed. It’s obvious that they’re not working, because they seem to just be a sedative. Sedatives don’t cure things, they just… make them go away for a bit. Well… I hope I can make it so you’re not upset or irritated.
