We don't have to think of ourselves as one thing, y'know? Or... I dunno..." Mikey smiled again, smaller and directed down at his feet. "Used to be, I knew who to go to when I needed it. I'm relearning. That's all. Hah, you think that maybe by the time we all go home I'll have learned at least one new thing?"
