[1] Worth it. [2] Don't stop too long, Mr. Thoroughgood, or I'm going to throw you over my shoulder. [...] [3] Yeah. I'll probably see some of them. It's just hard to know what to talk about, you know?
[1] I feel a little bad about it but it was pretty amazing funny. [...] [2] Again, I'd like to see you try. [3] It is. Everything feels very different, now. [4] I guess it is.
[1] We'll see. [2] I have to get you back before you catch frostbite. Ces would never forgive me otherwise. [3] But don't get me wrong, I'm glad we're here. I'm glad we can do something to help. [x] But I don't [4] Are you going to see any old friends?
[1] Ces would have the sense to blame me some too, at least. [2] Please don't throw out your back or something. [...] [3] I'm glad, too. Everything's just always [...] an adjustment, I guess. [4] I'll likely see one or two, I think. But I'm busy when I'm home, so that helps me [...] avoid too much hanging out, at least.
[1] Mine are the same. A couple of them are pretty open-minded, but it's still a small town. [2] Small enough that my whole school knew we were transferring to Finchwood within a day of getting accepted. [3] I've been told that some people think I'm too good for them now. And it's not that, it's just... [4] Hard to know what to say when talking about Finchwood.
[1] Yeah, small towns are hard. Especially [...] [2] I didn't tell anyone I was going, for a while. [3] Not sure what anyone thinks of that. [4] Sorry people think you're being all superior about it, though. It is hard to figure out what to say.
[1] It's alright. I was never that popular, anyway. [2] My family knows how I really am, even if I can't technically tell them much either. [3] How did everyone take it when you left?
[1] Really? Being very popular doesn't seem fun, anyway. [2] I had a lot of friends, I guess, but I was only actually close to two or three people. [...] [3] Everyone was supportive, but a few people were upset even though they eventually got past it. [x] Like my [4] Did your friends take it ok?
[1] I was more Neal's quiet friend. Same as you, there were maybe only two or three I really talked to. [2] I don't know if they were happy or sad about it. More surprised? [3] It was the exact same group of kids in our class since preschool. Any kind of change was just [...] unexpected. [...] [4] It feels terrible to say, but I spent most of my summer missing you guys here.
[1] I imagine it's easy to just let Neal do the talking. [2] But yeah, I can see how that could cause a bit of a ruckus. [3] No one I knew really expected me to leave. I think even my parents were a little surprised, when I told them I was going to apply. [...] [4] I never really clicked with anyone at home like I have at Finchwood, so I know what you mean. It was odd being here without everyone.
[1] I'm glad you applied. [2] That both of us did, really. Without Finchwood, we would've never met. [3] Knowing you [...] and everyone here is worth anything the SW can throw at us.
[1] I am, too. [2] I can't really imagine not knowing you. Funny to think it hasn't even been two years. [...] [3] We'll see if you think it's worth it when you have to pick me up out of the snow.
