TF: it smells like, uh, well yes salt, but not rotten fish TF: i think it smells kind of fresh, actually TF: and it smells warm, if that's, er, a thing TF: i mean obviously it is warm, but it's not just a feeling there

KN: You're doing good, butterfly. Now keep going. KN: What kind of sounds would I hear?

KN: There is nothing wrong with going into details. Use that vocabulary! KN: I've got a good imagination, but even I can't do much with the vague answers you're giving me. KN: What do the birds sound like? Do they have a soothing sound, or are they tone deaf? KN: And what about those waves, hm? You say crashing. Do you mean they're loud and scary sounding?

KN: So, let's review. I'm sitting on the beach, surrounded by stuff that's like gravel but not quite gravel. I guess I picked a good time because it's pretty much empty. There's birds having arguments above my head, and the water is attacking the shore. KN: Let's try moving onto the next aspect. KN: What's it feel like? How's the air feel? Is it dry, or can I feel the humidity?

KN: Deserts aren't humid, that's why they get so cold at night. They don't have the water in the air to hold onto the heat. KN: And we're doing this to save me from my unrelenting plague of boredom by letting me visit a place in my mind that I'll never be able to see in real life! KN: Next question! KN: What does the air taste like? I bet it's salty, huh?

KN: Honestly, butterfly. You need to start paying more attention to the world around you. KN: You're going to grow old and wrinkly and covered in age spots someday, and want to relive these precious moments from your childhood, and guess what? You won't be able to! KN: That, or those little things you keep looking over are going to come and bite you in the ass. Either or!

KN: You're over thinking this. KN: Just by breathing through your mouth you can taste the air! KN: And what's all this about we're all going to regret things?! Are you really going to give up that easily?! KN: I thought you were better than that, flutterbug. KN: If you feel like you want to do something, just do it! Who gives a shit what the other people think? KN: You're either going to look back on it and be embarrassed for a little bit, or lose the opportunity forever.

TF: and everyone has some regrets, even if they made the right choice, right? TF: people wonder whether or not the, er, other choice would have been better TF: or maybe they did something and it all turned out well but they still regretted doing that initial thing? TF: um, i'm just sort of rambling now, aren't i?

KN: Why waste time thinking about the regrets you don't have yet? KN: It's like getting a long ass rope, lassoing an ominous gray cloud and forcing it to cover the sun. KN: ...oh great, now look. You went and put a damper on my wonderful mood. KN: Just forget about the beach for now. I guess we can worry about that later. KN: I'm just going to go lay face down on my bed and sulk about all the mistakes I could make in my life before I make them. KN: *SIGH*
