[Now would be the lousiest of times to backpedal on his own self-depreciating, doubtful talk. White takes the compliment like he should, casually.]

No, I'm not like that.

[Not right now and not with Jimmy.]

I say it because you need to hear it. And I'll say it more because you're a shitty listener.

[trenchknives]

People always did say I was bad at listenin'. Stubborn, I guess you'd call it.

[He's listening now, though. Mostly.]

[whitetwoguns]

Yeah? I'm the same.

[Which could be why despite frustration he keeps...on...trying... Look at him on the phone this long for god's sake.]

[trenchknives]

I'm gonna... try, okay? Thanks for talkin' to me.

[whitetwoguns]

Atta boy.

[Immediate and genuine encouragement. Goddamn if he can't try pick up the guy when he's down so low.]

I'll check up on you later, brother.

[He can't bring himself to say that he's welcome because White now feels uncertain of how much good it all did in a short amount of time.]
