Mean, David. I thought you were supposed to be uplifting my spirits.

[helpdesk_hero]

I think we've gotten past the point of me caring about your spirits given you have no respect for me.

[mysterioisthetruth]

You're wrong.

[helpdesk_hero]

You fucking twist everything I say, and you ignore the meaning when you KNOW what I mean.

[mysterioisthetruth]

What are you talking about? I've done all you've told me to do.

[From his perspective, he thinks that's true.]

[helpdesk_hero]

Oh my god you're just... A mess.

[mysterioisthetruth]

And you're being stubborn.

Look, we probably can't even go anywhere until we do this.

[helpdesk_hero]

Really? You think?

[David turns. Fine, he'll be the one to walk away.]

[mysterioisthetruth]

Wait! Waitwaitwait---

[He sounds a bit anxious.]

[helpdesk_hero]

[Really? That scared? David grins.]

Oh? You superstitious?

[mysterioisthetruth]

Around here? You have to expect the worst to happen if we don't follow these rules.

[helpdesk_hero]

Don't care. I wish the worst on you.

[Because Beck definitely doesn't have the guts to grab him and force the issue.]

[mysterioisthetruth]

[He looks genuinely upset by those words.]

Well, I don't wish the worst on you.

[helpdesk_hero]

[David scoffs.]

You definitely don't wish good things for me.

[mysterioisthetruth]

I thought we could be friends. I tried but...

[He winces, looking down.]

[helpdesk_hero]

You didn't, Beck. At all. You just ignored me.

[mysterioisthetruth]

I didn't.

[He sounds a little desperate.]

[helpdesk_hero]

You are. You do. Everything I said. Everything I tried to do to help you!

[mysterioisthetruth]

You don't understand.

All you do is walk away, just like you're about to do here.

[helpdesk_hero]

You don't CARE about what you dragged me into. You could have ruined my life and you never tried.

[mysterioisthetruth]

And you never cared about me.

It was only ever about other people.

[helpdesk_hero]

Therapists and their patients aren't friends. They CAN'T BE. And you never earned it. My friends matter to me, and they care about me. We care about each other more than anything else.

[mysterioisthetruth]

You're not my therapist any more. Officially or unofficially.

[He moves forward, closer to David. Strangely, the mistletoe moves with him.]

[helpdesk_hero]

That doesn’t make me your friend.

[Wait. Did that just...? David’s eyes narrow.]

A fucking illusion‽ Dammit Beck!

[mysterioisthetruth]

What?

[He glances up.]

Oh... Look, I didn't do this.

[He makes a helpless gesture at the mistletoe.]

This is just proof that we have to do... something. Or this thing is going to keep following me around.

And if it's not you then it'll have to be someone else.
