[ooc: dated to... idk. When the moon is not noticeably freaky. ALSO. The cut below is there because there are over 30 filters beneath it that take up a ridiculous amount of space, wow.

Gee, I'm sure going to be able to sleep better at night.

He's gonna be there no matter what happens here, you know. Even if he comes back.
