FriendigoTM: I've got a question

Sammy: I might have an answer

FriendigoTM: it's kinda a serious one

Sammy: oh???
Sammy: is everything alright???

FriendigoTM: yeah
FriendigoTM: just wanted an honest opinion on something

Sammy: what's up?

FriendigoTM: so I was talking with my mom earlier
FriendigoTM: I mentioned that I was debating on going back to college

Sammy: you are???

FriendigoTM: sorta

Sammy: that's great!!

FriendigoTM: I don't know what I wanna go back for
FriendigoTM: not really sure if I'm cut out for psychology all things considered

Sammy: I could see you going into film school

FriendigoTM: I've been thinking about it
FriendigoTM: but that's not what I wanted to ask

Sammy: then what is?

FriendigoTM: if I were to go back to school
FriendigoTM: my mom says that it would probably be smart to get something done about my uh
FriendigoTM: my face

Sammy: there's nothing wrong with your face

FriendigoTM: Samantha
FriendigoTM: sweetheart
FriendigoTM: are you fuckin blind
FriendigoTM: I look like a fucking resident evil monster

Sammy: no you don't

FriendigoTM: there's a reason I don't leave the house without a mask on sam
FriendigoTM: I'd rather not scare the shit out of people everywhere I go
FriendigoTM: my point is that mom offered to get me plastic/dental surgery to deal with it
FriendigoTM: but you know how I am about doctors and stuff

Sammy: Josh, you don't have to do it if you aren't comfortable with it
Sammy: there are plenty of people out there who choose not to alter any scars they have

FriendigoTM: I know
FriendigoTM: but it got me thinking
FriendigoTM: do you think it bothers the others?

Sammy: what do you mean?

FriendigoTM: I look like one
FriendigoTM: I look like the thing that nearly killed them
FriendigoTM: I know I joke about it all the time like hEy LoOk aT mE iM A fRiEnDiGo but like
FriendigoTM: do you think it bothers them??

Sammy: in all honesty, it did at first
Sammy: but not for the reasons you think

FriendigoTM: ???

Sammy: we all felt really guilty about it for a long time
Sammy: some of us still do
Sammy: it reminded us of how we managed to fail you two years in a row, and nothing would change that
Sammy: Ashley and I read a journal that went into detail on the transformation
Sammy: so when we saw you we knew how much pain you were in because we screwed up
Sammy: again
Sammy: but now you're here, and all of us are recovering together
Sammy: we've forgiven what happened in the past and are moving on as best we can
Sammy: I don't think that would have been possible if you had never come back
Sammy: so no, to answer your question, it doesn't bother us anymore
Sammy: not me at least
