You're not being a buzzkill about stuff like this. You just care, and...that means a lot, man.

[Ryan has gone through his life without that, and it sucks. He's not used to someone caring about his emotional baggage and actually worrying about it, but it's weirdly nice? It's nice to have someone care that much. It makes his heart swell.]

And that's the thing! It sounds like a huge big deal and like, yeah, it was at the time, but...I really don't think about that shitty tour as much anymore. Why would I? I've got our awesome amazing tour now! And now our side tour in this pokémon place! I love being on tour with you!

[He's been so excited ever since they were gifted instruments here. Sometimes it feels like it's all he can talk about.]

It's a totally different experience. Day and night. But it means old tour stuff's not usually bothering me before it comes up. And then it comes up and suddenly we've got a weird birthday show and I have to try and be normal in front of the guy offering to pay us a bunch of money and-- you know. I hadn't thought about it in a while before that. It basically punched me in the face out of nowhere.
