Church: You two got these things where?

Tucker: Right up there.

The Blues and Ruby were gathered just outside the fortress. The cyan soldier pointed to the giant spinning blades.

Caboose: So, you went back in time and didn't change. . . anything?

Church: Uh yeah, I was just like a. . . passive observer.

Ruby: But if you really did go back in time, you could've got rid of O'Malley by not calling in Doc.

Caboose: I would have tried to save your life, for me!

Church: Yeah, I didn't think of that. Anyways, I don't think it's a good idea that you two are keeping those things.

Tucker: You're just pissed because you don't have one.

Ruby: I'm keeping it just 'cause it looks cool.

Church: No, you must be confusing me with Tex, she's been staring at you two non stop since you found those things.

Tex stood there staring for a few seconds. . . .

Tex: That's not true.

Church: You haven't taken your eyes off of it.

Tex: Yes I have.

Church: Then why haven't you looked at me the entire time I've been talking?

Tex: I'm looking at you right now.

She was still staring at the swords.

Church: No, you're not!

Tex: I've already seen you. . . not too impressed.

Ruby: Tex, no. Finders keepers, and be nice.

Tex: Okay fine.

The Blues were a little taken aback by how fast Tex gave in.

Church: Hey wait a second, why're you here and not with your team?

Ruby: Oh. . . To be entirely honest, I need a small break from them. I didn't wanna be any meaner, so I just kind of came over here without saying anything. Besides, we aren't exaclty fighting, so might as well make friends.

Caboose: Yes! I love friends!

Ruby: Me too Caboose!

Church: Oh god, not two of them.

The Blue rookie then look at Tex.

Caboose: I would have tried to save Tex too. . . .

Church: Well, I didn't Caboose. I didn't try to save me, I didn't try to save Tex and I sure as hell didn't make millions of copies of myself trying to keep the bomb from going off.

Caboose: Oh. *whispers* Because that was my next suggestion.

Ruby: Yeah, it was gonna be mine too.

Church: Leave me alone! I didn't wanna mess with the timeline.

Ruby: Geez, you guys are so mean to each other.

Tucker: That's Church for ya.

Caboose: Time. . . line. *scoffs* Time isn't made out of lines. It is made out of circles. That is why clocks are round.

His response was a little delayed.

Ruby: He kind of has a point.

Meanwhile, Tex, while no longer looking at Ruby's sword, had her eyes locked on Tucker's.
