[that's how comfort with lup goes!

Besides. We didn't have to come. We could've just said no, for this one.

What? I definitely had to, there's no way I could just abandon Pops like that! It was probably like that for everyone else too!

Not that any of us were going to say no. Just that we had the choice.
