I will. You're smart, Jay. Thank you for talking to me about it.

[for what it's worth, Geir's attention to the conversation has sharpened a lot, and any perception that he's not engaging with it fully has long since ebbed.

Jay's very aspirational. his personality and feelings about life aren't a ragged web of questions desperately spun out in the dark, hoping something will catch. Geir feels wistful and a bit melancholic about it, but maybe one day he'll be as sure about things as Jay.]

...I guess I'm glad that someone's really sure. Nobody else has really said that.
