Well, back when you were a kid, maybe there really were circuses.
[It's gentle teasing, lacking any real energy but still an attempt to lighten the mood a little now that things are calmer, even if the subject is still a bit somber.]
Yeah, I think I'm done traveling. I'm kind of done traveling outside my house, actually.
[At home, anyway; he's pretty sure he'll decide to spend quite awhile at his parents' house, not even his dorm. here, of course, staying inside all the time isn't really possible even if it might be appealing.]
Well if they're like, anything like on tv they seem like they'd suck anyway.
[He gives a small scoffing noise.]
You say that like I wasn't already. Geez, I make the mistake of going out in the wilderness one time and get attacked by monsters.
[It's definitely an exaggeration; he preferred staying inside on his computer or phone or whatever else rather than going out into 'nature and junk', but that was just preference. He's pretty sure if--when--he goes home, however, he's going to spend at least a solid month inside doing nothing.]
Well, nobody expects the wendigos, right? Not like you could've planned ahead for that.
[Because horror story monsters, those are a thing nobody expects to see in real life. unless you're a winchester]
I dunno, man, it sounds fun until you actually have to do it. I got completely snowed in a couple winters ago for like, three days. I don't love being outside but I was losing my fucking mind after a day and a half of that shit.
[In actuality, it wasn't so much the being stuck inside as it was who she was stuck inside with - Kennedy. Before Nick decided that she didn't actually hate her entirely.]
[She shrugs. Choice is an important factor in a lot of things.]
Seriously, man, I'm fine. [Where might he have heard that before ... ] Takes more than a bullet to the head to keep me down. But, uh, you should probably rest up some too, yeah?
[He's definitely not super convinced, but he is sure she's at least physically going to be okay. So instead of arguing with that, or with her last comment, he just gives a tired nod.]
Yeah. I think um... I'll do that.
I'll talk to you later, okay?
[If things are--more or less--good with them, anyway.]

Yeah, fuck if I know. Ma was usually too trashed to do anything when I was a kid, so I've never been.
[She shrugs.]
You're gonna be a shut-in from now on?

[Like getting snowed in, or being on bedrest, or being buried alive for days.
He needs a nap.]
But um... Okay. I know you said you're fine but you should probably get some more rest, right?
