[ stops - literally ]

[acceptabilities]

This is getting nowhere.

[solvabilities]

Well I don't have any more plans.

[acceptabilities]

[silent for a moment, then:]

You still need to eat.

[solvabilities]

. . . Yeah.

[acceptabilities]

[I don't feel like going back to the others now tho. and I doubt you do either]

[solvabilities]

[ shitty mood is a go ]

[acceptabilities]

... I'm sorry.

[solvabilities]

Steve . . .

[acceptabilities]

I understand if you're upset with me.

[solvabilities]

I'm not upset with you. Did you miss the whole thing I just said?!

[acceptabilities]

I allowed myself to be captured. I couldn't even protect myself, much less all of you. That's not being strong.

[solvabilities]

Steve, you can't allow yourself to be captured.

[acceptabilities]

I should have been more on my guard, but I wasn't.

[solvabilities]

Why are you being the unreasonable one? Stop it.

[acceptabilities]

[... inhales, and then sighs]

Bottom line, it's not your fault, Tony.

[solvabilities]

. . . Right.

[acceptabilities]

...

Let's go eat.

[solvabilities]

Okay.

[acceptabilities]

[just. going to lead the way]

[solvabilities]

[ after that, I guess we're finally sitting down to eat ]

[acceptabilities]

[finally]

[solvabilities]

[ eating quietly ]

[acceptabilities]

[... at least there's that. even if... this quiet is deafening and kind of. tense]

[solvabilities]

[ yeeep. ]
