“It’s been a while since we’ve done this, huh?” Smitty asked, tone upbeat and nowhere near accusatory. But tone did nothing to dissuade John's acute sense that he was being interrogated. “Yeah, I guess it has been a while,” John said, voice matching Smitty’s. ‘You just gave yourself away by admitting you know exactly what he’s talking about,’ said a part of his brain - part that had been silenced so many times over the years that he hadn’t even heard it speak. “It's good to be doing it again, man,” Smitty said sincerely. “I, uh, kind of missed talking to you. You know, just you.” Just you. “Me too, dude. It’s, uh, quiet enough to actually fucking think when those other idiots aren’t in the call," John said, ignoring the way Smitty's words made his head spin just a little. Think. John doesn't like thinking. Nothing good ever comes of it. There was a time, he's pretty sure, when he admired Smitty's ability to think, but those days are long gone. He knows, now, the fury that thinking wields. He's made himself deaf to his own mind; this way, he'll never think again. But then sound is thrust upon him once more, and he must confront the bedlam, and that which only dwells in his own thoughts.
