SORRY THIS WAS NECESSARY

[burningspiral]

[A few low, shaky, scared breaths.]

You're all mad at me. I know you're all mad at me. I helped get people brainwashed and make a mess of the town. It's partially my fault Grady's about to do whatever he's gonna do.

[Another few breaths.]But I'm not gonna apologize! I'm not gonna say I'm sorry for doing what I have to do! I'm not gonna

Whoa, geez--! That was loud!

[burningspiral]

... I wanted to get everyone's attention.

It's important that we don't start giving up now.

[kaitopants]

You did a good job.

... that's the Simon I know.

[burningspiral]

...

I have to do it for Nia. I have to see her again, someday. And that means I have to get out of here.

[stop_it_tewi]

... did you have to shout that loud?

My ears aren't for show...

[burningspiral]

... S-sorry.

[stop_it_tewi]

Mm...

Just... mind that in the future, please.

[burningspiral]

I'll block it from you next tim.

[supersizedpower]

Hear hear!

Though don't forget it's my fault too! And I wanna get the hell out of here, too!

[burningspiral]

Then even if it's just us! We'll find a way out, right!

[supersizedpower]

It won't ever be just us, we've both got friends and allies who won't give up, either.

But we're going home, that's for sure.

[burningspiral]

M-mm!

[theblindbadass]

Hey, I didn't even know who was in charge of the whole thing.

But he's only threatening us 'cause he's scared. What's a little broken windows and some brainwashing compared to getting our stuff back?

[burningspiral]

It was me and America.

If he's scared then we're doing something right.

[theblindbadass]

Good to know. As long as you don't pull anything too stupid, you can count on me pitching in.

Anyway, that wasn't half bad as far as speeches go. Name's Toph, what's yours?

[burningspiral]

Awesome!

I'm Simon. Simon the Digger!

[eldest_hatter]

I'm not sorry for what we did, but I think perhaps next time we should be more prepared for what we want to do, and the consequences it can bring.

[burningspiral]

I shoulda warned everyone better... Kaito told me what happened last time I tried... but I don't remember it.

[eldest_hatter]

Last time?

[burningspiral]

When I was here before, I did stuff like this.
