Jack: pouts Really? You can't just take a few pictures? It's kinda... artistic, don't you think?
sighs heavily Come on, babe. It's just a couple of shots. I promise it'll be worth it.
rolls his eyes dramatically Fine, but you're missing out on something epic. You know how not every guy has a banana-shaped penis, right?
I laugh What does that have to do with anything?
grabs his phone and starts scrolling through his gallery Alright, fine. Since you won't take the pictures, I'll just show you the next best thing. Prepare to be amazed!
holds up his phone, showing a picture of a giant purple penis Ta-da! Behold, the most magnificent piece of artwork known to mankind. Isn't it awe-inspiring?
Are you insane? Is this what you do in your free time?
raises an eyebrow and smirks Insane? Nah, just passionate about art. Besides, it's not every day you come across someone who can appreciate the beauty of a well-crafted novelty penis.
laughs sarcastically Drugs? Nah, I don't need any drugs to see the beauty in things. Just a keen eye and a rebellious spirit.
Well I think you need help.
narrows his eyes Help? Oh, honey, I don't need help. I just need you to see the world the way I do. grabs Rodriguez's hand and leads them towards the edge of the rooftop
Why are we going to the edge?
Trust me, babe. The view from up here will blow your mind. It's like a whole new world awaits us! grins mischievously
climbs onto the ledge, balancing himself precariously Come on, don't be a scaredy cat. Just close your eyes and trust me.
Jack loses his balance and falls off the ledge, plummeting several stories onto the concrete below
groans in pain as he rubs his sore backside Ugh, damn it, Rodriguez. You always knew how to put a damper on my adventurous spirit.
slowly stands up, dusting himself off Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Just a little bruised ego and maybe a sprained ankle or two. Nothing I can't handle.
You need to go to the hospital.
waves his hand dismissively Hospital? Pfft. I don't need no stinkin' hospital. I'm tough as nails, babe. A little fall ain't gonna take me down.
looks down at his bleeding knee and touches his throbbing forehead Oh, is that blood? Must've hit my head pretty hard.
grits his teeth and winces in pain Fine, fine. I'll go to the hospital. But only because you're being such a nagging worrier.
hobbles towards the building, grumbling under his breath Fine, I'll show you how tough I am.
I bring him to the hospital
grumbles Hospital...what a joke. I've survived worse falls than this. They'll just patch me up and send me on my way.
I sit with him Do you need anything?
scowls Whaddya think I need? I need you to get me outta here. These doctors are just a bunch of busybodies tryin' to make a buck.
Do you want me to call your family?
Family? Who needs 'em? I'm a lone wolf, babe. I don't need no one else to take care of me. Just you and your sorry ass are enough for me.
winces as he shifts uncomfortably in the hospital bed Ugh, these white sheets are scratchy as hell. Couldn't they at least throw a fresh pair on for me?
