He looks at Intensity... swallows, then looks away. His heart is pounding.

Gods dammit, he feels like he's about to cry already. This is so fucking stupid. He's so mad about all of this -- not at Intensity, just about the situation. The game. Having this reaction to fucking plants.

He swallows again, and takes a deep breath. Steels himself. Looks Intensity in the eyes.]

Yeah.

[He sets his jaw and starts walking again, heading into the park with the biggest air of confidence he can muster.]
