The Last of Us (11)

Tyler scurried through his backpack. He was looking for something that might calm his brother down…

Looking…

Looking…

Looking…

“There it is! Got it!” He said in excitement.

“Got what?” Conor asked with a strong emphasis.

Tyler pulled out a blue question mark box.

Conor’s eyes grew big once again, this time with excitement. He didn’t have to open the box, because he knew what was inside. Some could argue he didn’t even need what was inside anymore, either.

“YAY!” Conor expressed. He snatched the box right out of Tyler’s hands and then popped it open. “Mushrooms!”

Yes, that’s right. Regular (not special) mushrooms sat inside the power blue box. Conor quickly tipped the box over and poured them straight into his mouth while Tyler shook his head in embarrassment.

“You’re an idiot.” He said softly.

Conor hectically chewed the mushrooms while trying to hold back a smile so he could keep them all in his mouth. “Amazing.” He stated. “I love mushrooms.”

Tyler’s eye rolled. “I know it’s hard for you, but can you act normal for once? The Developer is a pretty serious fellow. I don’t think he wants to be part of any kind of…” Tyler looked over Conor, who was still chewing. “Well, this.”

Now finished, Conor piped up. “I have energy. I feel good. I’m no longer scared!”

“Good. Glad the placebo effect still works.”

Tyler walked towards The Developers office. This time, he wasn’t so worried about his brother following behind.

“What’s a place-bo?” Conor scratched his head, thought about it long and hard, figured he had no clue and then tried to catch up.

CONOR GETS ENERGY.
