[ Hey, TQ. It's been a while. So long, in fact, Bells doesn't even know why he's bothering with this sort of thing anymore, but he's bored. And more than a little lonely. ]

It's nice all of you are getting these cute ideas about trying to have some fun, but it's probably not gonna last very long. [ Great way to start out the video. He stretches back. ] Everything's shit most of the time, and making the, uh, best of a bad situation just won't work up here. Most of it's boring, sure. But when things get bad, they get bad.

You can't talk your way out of it. [ Much to his disappointment. ] And you certainly can't pretend it's all gonna get better. There's a few easy rules to stick to while you're here. [ He holds up a finger. ] Don't make friends. [ Another goes up. ] Don't try to get cozy.

Stick to those, and things might not be so bad. Then again-- [ Bells shrugs, rubbing a hand over his face. ] Anyway. There are other things worth doing while you're here. However long that might be.

If you wanna know, just ask. If not... Enjoy being in Hell. 'Cause it's all worse than actually being there.

[ And click. The best motivational speaker ever. ]

I don't, so. [ There's a huff. ]

What'd you do if I left and came back? Ignore me?

Punch you in the face as welcome, then ignore you.

I don't think it works like that. You punch me, and you'd never be rid of me.

That's so not how it's supposed to work.

That's how it's gonna work with me. Don't punch me if you don't like it.

Sometimes I just can't help it. Especially with you always yip-yapping about this and that.

Who else have you got to listen to?

Ever think maybe I don't wanna listen to anyone?

Sure. But who else do you have besides-- [ Okay, he's not going to be that much of a jerk. ] Forget it.

[ s q u i n t. ]

Don't make me get out a list. [ no, he really has no one else. or so it feels like... ]

[ He crosses his arms. ]

Go ahead. I'll wait, so take your time.

You wouldn't have the patience for that.

Yeah, well. Still gonna wait. [ So go ahead and start with that list. ]

[ huff. ] God, you're so annoyin', you know that.

So what? You're worse than I am. At least I stopped bitching about it.

Yeah, why is that, anyway? Finally run outta other friends?

I-- [ He just frowns and drags a hand through his hair. ] Something like that, yeah.

Guess the ship figured it was the only way to get us talkin' again.

Don't know why. It's not like you ever had much to say to me in the first place.

Not a whole lot been going on.

I'm not just talking about now. Don't be stupid.

Not a whole lot been going on before either.
