[The video feed turns on and Beat comes into view. It looks like something is on his mind and he opens his mouth to speak but then closes it again.]

...

[Without saying anything he shuts off the feed. Only to turn it back on a few seconds later. Don't ask. It's a pride thing

Man up, find your balls if you've got them and say it to their face.

[gangstaspeak]

I got balls, yo! Ain't gonna be askin' for help if I ain't done that already!

[havemyflaws]

Look, if you try any of the bullshit people tell you, most people lose respect for you. Don't try flowers or alcohol or a gift or whatever else. It makes you less of a person if you flatter your way out of it. The only way to do it is admit that you frakked up big style and that you're sorry.

[gangstaspeak]

Didn't I jus' say I done that already. Didn't work, yo. Doin' it again ain't gonna cut it.

[poet_of_piano]

It seems like you already know. You simply have to tell them. Or... Is it something that requires more then words?

[gangstaspeak]

Might havta. Done that already an' got nothin'.

[poet_of_piano]

The best thing that you can do is be honest. Sometimes these things take time.

[gangstaspeak]

I was bein' honest, yo! [Mostly.] Ain't 'bout to go an' lying 'bout stuff to her!

[xsillygoround]

Beat? What happened?

[gangstaspeak]

...Me and Flips sorta got into a fight, yo.

[xsillygoround]

..Damn. That sounds rough. Mind telling me a bit more about it? It might be easier to help you that way.

[gangstaspeak]

Naw, s'fine, man. Ya know 'em mistletoe tha's been floatin' 'round? Sorta got stuck under one.

[royalseashells]

Is everything okay, Beat?

[gangstaspeak]

Naw, not 'sactly, yo.

[royalseashells]

[Concerned frown is go.]

What's wrong? Can I help with something?

[gangstaspeak]

I ain't sure. This prob'ly somethin' I gotta do on my own, you know.

[At least the actually doing something part.]

[resonancy]

You just say you're sorry, Beat.

[gangstaspeak]

Already did that, Tails! Ain't gonna be askin' 'bout it if I that worked.

[resonancy]

-- You did? So what happened after that?

[gangstaspeak]

She jus' told me to back off.
