Hey, Tyra.

[wannabeimprtant]

Y'know me, Matt. I'll get through it. Guess some crazy part of me might be missin' the people in Dillon.

Makes me wanna ask what that made the rest of us, but I think I know. Ya ain't so naive, are ya?

[panthers7]

Yeah, I can get that. But most of them ain't even gonna be here soon. Ya' should come visit while they're all still here.

I was more stupid when I joined than I am now. Now it ain't so important. Back then, I just wanted to do somethin' to make Grandma proud.

[wannabeimprtant]

Maybe I will... Always thought I'd be glad to get outta there.

I think she was always gonna be proud of ya, Matt.

[panthers7]

Dillon ain't as bad as most think. Everyone looks out for everyone else. Ya' won't get that in Austin. No offense, Tyra.

She's proud of me when I make pancakes, but it's cool. She was the main reason I did it. But once I was there, I kinda liked it.

[wannabeimprtant]

None taken. Not sure anyone ever looked out for me 'til Mrs Taylor and... um, Landry.

Does she still have that tiara? That's how the dark side works. Waits 'til ya in before it hooks ya.

[panthers7]

Yeah, an' now look where ya' are.

Oh yeah, and I think I'm still payin' it off, too. She's wears it for Sunday lunch every week. Only difference is, ya' only stay hooked if ya' don't know when it's time to walk away and it is my time.

[wannabeimprtant]

Yeah... guess it's pretty nice. Although I might think about movin' in to a dorm. I think my wallpaper just wriggled.

Now that is somethin' I really wanna see. There ain't anythin' ya gonna miss about it?

[panthers7]

Might be cheaper in a dorm, too. Save some money, ya' could have more gas money to visit Dillon more and not feel so lonely.

Everyone on the team without a doubt. Ain't no mates like them.

[wannabeimprtant]

Ya gonna roll out the welcome wagon every time, Matty?

Ya guys do have a pretty strong bond. 'Least ya still gonna have Landry.

[panthers7]

Sure ya' don't want Landry to?

Yeah, Landry's a good alternative to a whole team.

[wannabeimprtant]

Me and him weren't ever gonna last... I don't think.

He's got enough enthusiasm as one.

[panthers7]

Ya' don't think?

Yeah, guy gives me a headache some days.

[wannabeimprtant]

I wanted it to... Don't get me wrong. Just... I'm not sure it was ever gonna.

It's okay to get a breather from him now and again.

[panthers7]

Because he's Landry.

We'd probably kill each other if we were together much more.

[wannabeimprtant]

Yeah, but not because of what ya thinkin'. I just don't really deserve him.

I always thought it was a bit weird the way you two hung out, but it's actually pretty sweet. Friendships like that are rare.
