[ fair enough. jonas isn't particularly good at things, or thinks of himself as good in general, but he can be very firm about the things that matter to him. he doesn't know everything about the circumstances from home, but he's very certain that he wants to make sure alex gets out. let her get back to her friends and family.

ideally he'd get back, too, but it's a lesser priority at the moment if push comes to shove. ]

I'm not so sure we're dead either, but I'm not taking a chance and treating it lightly just in case. [ so he understands the sentiment. ] I need to make sure Alex gets back, even though I know she's saying the same about me. Can't force anybody else to play or leave, but I can at least be responsible for us.
