[The feed switches to video of a bedroom wall, and then quickly pans down to Davesprite's lap--where he's holding a live, half-grown, red-feathered rooster--which some people might recognize as one of the dyed Easter chicks he found--who quickly jumps ship in a squawking flurry of feathers. The feed ends.]

Don't swear! But - I like it! That's a good philosophy.

Are you serious? It's basically the oldest hack saying in the book.

What? But it sounds like it's really true! Like - enjoying what's happening now, I guess? Although I guess it's important to plan for the future, too...

Well, I don't pretend to know jack about journeys and stuff, but the only way to make the future come out is to do the past right.

That's not really true! I mean, you can make mistakes in the past and fix it enough that things still turn out really good. I think what's important is making sure to always do your best in the present.

[It actually takes him a moment to translate all that into non-time-traveler English.]

Yeah. Spoken like a born kindergarten teacher. You ever consider going into the after-school special industry?

It's not just true for little kids!

It's not exactly a thing for bad-ass time-traveling rap ninjas, but I guess you don't really have to worry about that.

If you're talking about you, it sounds like you might be the only one of those. I mean, that's pretty specific!

Nah, there's at least two of us here, and I can't rule out Bro. The dude's a mystery wrapped in an enigma packaged in ironic Christmas smuppet wrapping paper.

[scribble...]

Well, it's good that there's more of you, right? So you're not alone!

I guess.

[Wait a sec.]

What're you writing, nothing I just said's on the lesson plan.

Oh, since you're not going to tell me what any of the stuff you say means, I decided to write it down so I can look it up later! Actually, how do you smell, um, smoopet?

[Hghkl.]

Okay wow you can skip that one. I'm striking that one right the hell off the syllabus, don't even worry about it. Like, wipe that out of your hard memory, you don't need it.

Why, is it something really bad?

[It's sort of handy, how much underlining it makes it look like she's scratched it out.]

Just don't worry about it. I'm not gonna be the one responsible for exposing you to that.

Well, um, alright...

What's the next principle?

Man, you are just a glutton for instruction. Though I guess I can't blame you.

[He shrugs.]

Next one is that downplaying feelings is the rule of cool.

[There's a short pause.]

No, feelings are too important for that.

You don't have to broadcast them to every vulture who wants to pick your bones dry, though.

I think you should be honest about the way you're feeling. It's sort of like lying to yourself if you don't, right?

Not really. You'll still do the right shit, you'll just look cooler for it.

But it's not about looking cool, it's about not being afraid to be who you are!

But being a totally rad life-saving tool is who I am.

But if you're not showing how you feel, isn't that like hiding a part of yourself?
