Philosophical Differences

Month 10
Endergaln


Bax and Ethan catch each other in the street and go for a drink to catch up a little. Ethan asks how Bax has been dealing with the city, and Bax asks how he deals with the city, how he adapts so quickly. Ethan expresses that it’s a rich place and it’s easy to find gold and ways to survive, with no animals or nature out to kill you; Bax returns that at least nature only kills you, it won’t pretend to be your friend and backstab you, and that most of the sorrow in their lives has come from other people. They both reveal that they are mutually paranoid and rarely sleep in beds any more. Bax says he might leave the city for a bit to get a break from it. Ethan gives him some money to explicitly spend on something for himself and says that no matter what Bax chooses, he’ll probably do the right thing for him, and that he’ll be there to help him regardless. Bax ends up spending it all on one kebab.
