 _self_act eat piece of cheese 
 _self_say This cheese is delicious. Im so glad you can understand me Guard. Some days I think I have no one to talk to besides you. 
 _partner_say Well I am stuck here most of the time. 
 _self_say Yes I suppose. I'm not stuck. I get to travel all over the place and outside too where I live it is huge and theres always somewhere to explore.  
 _partner_say And yet here I stand day in and day out. 
 _self_say Is that not what you signed up for? I didn't ask to be a field mouse but here I am living my best life. Sometimes even though we are not able to choose the life we are given we can still make the best of it! 
 _partner_say I know, don't remind me. Sometimes I just feel like a statue or something. 
 _self_say If you were a statue you couldn't talk to me silly. I know you are stuck here a lot. I could not do it. Don't you get a day to spend to yourself ever? 
 _partner_say It seems like we have to work everyday, it is rare I get a day off. 
 _self_say IF you could be doing anything you want right now what wold that be? 
 _partner_say Swimming I think, it would be nice to cool off without the armor. 
 _self_say I'm not a huge fan of the water personally. There are things in there that would gobble me up. I like to eat.. a lot. 
 _partner_say Afraid of the fish I take it? 
 _self_say Yes. Im a tasty snack to them. Do you ever get to look out those windows and just daydream?
