Who: The intrepid crew of the SS Bloodsport!
Broadcast: Maybe?
Action: Probably!
When: Right now!

[SO HEY GUYS WHAT'VE YOU BEEN UP TO.

what's cooking on the Bloodsport? what fresh drama is unfolding?

has anyone thanked Robin for how the cargo hold doesn't smell like death and slowly-reversing decay anymore because that stuff was gross.]

I hope so. I try to make people feel better.

[At least his fingers are already calloused, so this isn't doing him any harm.]

And you do such a great job with it. You should be proud, really, Cole.

I... should be?

[He looks up, head canting to the side, curious and innocent.]

[That gets a soft smile. ]

Yes, you do good work, you help people in a way that no one else can, and you do it selflessly. That's something to be proud of.

I don't know Pride. Pride and Faith get tangled together. Sometimes... I feel pride from others. But not the bad sort, which makes you think you're better than others.

Oh no, this isn't the bad sort. It makes you feel good for doing good. It's a warm, fuzzy kind of feeling. It's like a reward for being a good person, even if you never ask for it.

Oh.

I like knowing I've helped someone, because it makes them happy. When I do it, I'm a bit more... real.

You're always real to me, amigo.
