Revision as of 01:03, 7 June 2007
Basically, Dylan confronts Alex about his seduction of Aimee. Dylan ends up saying something along the lines of "If all you care about is the photo, I'll get you a photo"...and then, well...I'll get around to talking about that once we're sure that Dylan and Alex are okay with an extremely awkward kiss.
I'm sorry, what were you saying?
We're friends, wouldn't you say? We're friends.
Yes. Although you can be boring.
And you can be a fucking jerk, but that's not my point. This bet.
Yes?
I want you to stop it.
Okay.
Okay?
Okay.
Okay what?
Okay, I realize you want me to stop it.
But you're not going to stop it.
Why would I? For that matter, why do you want me to stop?
Because you're hurting people.
(Makes buzzer noise) Incorrect! Since when have you cared about people? (Imitates an announcer) And that's a lie, Alan, going all the way back in left field...Santiago making a dash for home plate...and the ball is in the air, he's reaching for it, it might be over the fence...
(cutting Alex off) Because you're hurting Carmen.
Carmen's a big girl. She can handle it.
Do you like her?
That's one of those questions that's just begging to be answered untruthfully.
<center>DYLAN
don't
That's the problem with you naturalists, you see everything as to formulaic, governed by law and not by nature. You have two people, they pair off, they fuck, have children, raise them, and then die. But we're, I'm, not a bloody animal, I'm not going to conform to your pre-concieved notions of love just because you happen to think I'm bound to some contractual social obligation. I'm not a fucking tool, I'm not a machine... I'm a rational human being, and sometimes that means thinking about yourself, and trying to rise above what you are.
You are fucking formulaic, don't give me that shit... your more formulaic than Fibonacci sequence. You try and win, whatever walks into your path, and that's all you care about. I hate to sound like a republican, but there's more to humanity than just a constant drive to win, you've got to have compassion; that's what makes you more than an animal.
Alright, Saint Toby, my friend, I'll cut you a deal. I'lll drop things with carmen, but in turn, I want something from you.
oh, and what's that?
A chance to show your compassion, if you kiss me, I'll let Carmen well enough alone.
...and I'll need a picture
I'm... alright.
At this stage alex walks up to dylan, and launches into a mouth to mouth with almost preditory ferocity, and yet almost effortlessly extracts a phone and takes a picture... shortly after the picture dylan pushes alex away.
God, I didn't say you could with tongue.
.
Dylan then proceeds to spit for a moment, as if to wash the taste out of his mouth.
You're sick
Alex laughs with his farsical barritone.
, Well, my dear Toby, Carmen is yours. Enjoy!
Alex slaps Dylan on the back while talking
You honestly didn't hear anything I told you...
Oh, I heard you, like the wind wispering through the emptry trees.
Dylan turns and walks out.
