[that's just a pretty roundabout way of saying Hakuna Matata, isn't it? funny how that joke keeps coming back, keeps making itself relevant. funny that a light-hearted leadin to a more serious conversation wound up leading in to this one, and stopped Dave from doing something reckless out of desperation.]

[though, that's the way it's always been, after all. the tiniest, often stupidest, and most irrelevant details always wind up being more important to the overall sequence of events than anyone ever expected.]

[and maybe this really happened exactly the way it was supposed to. but at least they've had the luxury of making their own decisions on it in the first place.]

[that's the way it should be.]

They look comfortable, at least. [that's not a lie. the fabric is soft. they'd be warm in this cold and stale pocket of space. Dave doesn't have his god-tier pajamas with him, but they're pretty stupid, too. stupid comfortable, that is.]

If you really hate 'em that much, you could chop them up into a blanket or something.
