This is probably one of those times where it's better not to ask questions and just accept we're ridiculously lucky

[kindofbadass]

Right.

I think I'm flattered there was even a second you thought I knew how to do that but I do not know how to just... accept that

[stevieboy]

You're NOT going to accept the fact that we're alive? It's dumb luck Nance we're not that good

[kindofbadass]

No, of course I accept that we're alive!

I mean I guess - no, never mind

I can't accept that it's just luck. It's been years now, it can't just be luck.

[stevieboy]

Okay maybe by now we have a bit of experience to go off of but none of our plans ever go right and we always get through by the skin of our teeth
Sometimes some of us DON'T get through
It's mostly luck

[kindofbadass]

...

I really hate that.

No, if I let myself think about it as mostly luck I'm going to lose my mind.

[stevieboy]

Ok, look
You're amazing at coming up with plans and switching gears and you just run into everything without fear but you never panic
And that's probably a little bit why we're alive too

[brb taking a moment before replying because it is very sweet and very Steve to react to "I'm going to lose my mind" with a bunch of compliments]

Thank you.

I think you're actually better at the running into everything without fear thing than I am

[stevieboy]

Yeah but I do it stupidly
You do it with a plan

[kindofbadass]

No, I think "protect everybody" is definitely a plan

[stevieboy]

You’re not supposed to be complimenting me when I’m trying to calm you down

[kindofbadass]

You just complimented me like five times, you started it

[stevieboy]

I’m not the one having a crisis here

[kindofbadass]

I think you very effectively distracted me from the crisis already, don't worry

[stevieboy]

Oh yeah? Then good, I did what I wanted to do

[kindofbadass]

Yes.

So you have to take the compliment.

[stevieboy]

Fine, compliment taken

[kindofbadass]

Thank you.

And... Thank you.

[stevieboy]

Yeah of course. I got you, you know that

[kindofbadass]

I do.

But, well. You'd be well within your rights to have opted out of that by now, so - I'm extra grateful. And extra lucky.

[stevieboy]

What? No way, you’re stuck with me.

[kindofbadass]

Good, I'm going to hold you to that.
