HA! YOU MISSED YOUR CHANCE THEN, 'CAUSE I WAS CLOSED ALL WEEK. TOO BAD FOR YOU!
[He appreciates it though. Too much worry and concern always makes him squirm a little. Joking (or not joking) about stealing his profits is a welcome change of pace. ...And it makes what sympathy that does come a little easier to handle.]
NAH I'M GOOD NOW. FORD AND DIPPER ARE ALIVE AGAIN. BACK TO BUSINESS AS USUAL AROUND HERE.
I DUNNO, SHE DID JUST GET CAUGHT RED-HANDED LYING TO ME TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER.
[Honestly, the thought of her thinking she needed a leg up to beat him at all is incredibly flattering. Imagine that! Competition that actually sees him as legitimate competition!
But eh, Luz probably has to get the white lying from somewhere, right?]
WE'RE GONNA MARATHON DUCKTECTIVE!!! THE SHOW ABOUT THE DUCK DETECTIVE! 🦆🔎
IT'S BETTER THAN I'M DESCRIBING IT I SWEAR. THEY'RE PROBABLY FEELING OKAY ENOUGH FOR GAMES THOUGH, GOOD IDEA! WE GET KINDA COMPETITIVE TOO SO THAT'LL BE FUN WITH THE TWO OF THEM ON COLD MEDS.
FUNNY YOU SAY THAT! I MADE A DUCKTECTIVE OUTTA SPARE PARTS BACK HOME! NOT FOR THE SHACK THOUGH JUST FOR FUN. SOOS SAID IT WAS FANART OR SOMETHING BUT I CALL IT A MASTERPIECE!
GOOD POINT! FANART MASTERPIECE IT IS! I OUGHTA MAKE A NEW ONE FOR THE MURDER HUT. KINDA OFF BRAND BUT IT'S MY HUT I CAN DO WHAT I WANT.
I'M HOPING THEY HEAL UP SOONER. DID THAT WHOLE WEIRD SACRIFICE THING SO IF THAT'S NOT A TOTAL SCAM THEY MIGHT NOT BE DOWN FOR THE COUNT SO LONG! WORST CASE SCENARIO THEY HAVE TO PUT UP WITH ME YELLING AT THEM ALL MONTH TO ACTUALLY STAY IN BED.

[ What's life without a little healthy competition? ]
good. death sickness is nasty. get them some games or something, cause its really boring.
[ Eda might send over some food, but she won't mention it because she can't do that. She can't be that soft. ]

good. anything to stop the boredom. worse than the actual flu
[ But at least they live with people. Eda lived alone when she died, and she bullied (hinted, really) people into coming over and bringing her food. ]

[It was not a masterpiece, and it was definitely made out of a turkey and possibly a beaver? No one's really sure.]
YEAH THE TWO OF THEM HAVE BEEN A MESS SINCE THEY WOKE UP. NEVER SEEN THEM THAT SICK IN MY LIFE!

the flu isn't fun, but it isn't the worst. not worth giving up anything valuable to get rid of.

[That sure isn't an answer about what was sacrificed though!]
no subject
at least they'll get better sooner. won't have to deal with whining too long, huh
no subject
BUT, EH. IT WAS NOTHIN.
[Taking praise for it feels so strange and uncomfortable? In his head, there was no other option. He was always going to make the sacrifice.]
