Howdy, pal ! Long time no see ;]

@thatredcaboose

...Caboose.

The hell you doin' here.

What's with that tone, buddy ?

Can't I visit my old friends every once in a while ?

You aint visit no one without no reason.

What're you doin' here.

Awh gee, what's got you so riled up ?!

I told ya — just sayin' hi ! It's been a while after all . . . Remind me , when was the last time I saw you ?

Nothin'. I just dont wanna see you.

Oh, piss off. If all yer all gonna do today is get me more pissed off, then you can beat it.

Hey — what did I ever do, GB ?!

You ain't being so nice today . . . I swear I'm not tryin' to upset you, buddy ! What sort of a friend would ever do that ?!

Like yer always nice, mr two face. I heard 'bout wha' you told that damn electric, when they came by while I was in repairs. Parently, you did a real shit job at takin' me out. Not Rusty. Me.

Tell me when the hell y'started planning fer tha', huh?

Whaaat ?! Lil' old me ? I would never ! You know how Electra likes to lie, pal . You wouldn't believe anything like that now, would you ? I wouldn't dare lay a finger on ya, Greaseball !

We never made no plans, buddy ! And I'll swear on it !

I aint so sure recently, Caboose. Seeing the final race and all, i got all belief that you'd do somethin' like that. Besides, you aint had no qualms about disqualifying someone after making them believe youre their friend. Kinda hard to believe yous then, aint it.

What can I say — I'm a changed man ! Things got a bit . . . dire during the race ! Even a champ like yourself has to admit ya did a few things you ain't especially proud of , huh ?

You talking 'bout Rusty ? That was totally different , buddy ! I took him out for the benefit of everyone , see . Did it for you and Electra ! Races are no fun with a lousy steamer !

Dire . . . Like y' wouldnt have done it if Rusty weren't there , even though you very much would've .

And please . You aint even take him out right . He came back the next race , and you had nothin' ta show for yer doin' .

Hey ! It ain't my fault he had some freaky religious awakenin' ! Usually after being crashed , engines give up on all their dreams !

Well . . . Suppose I can't do much if ya don't believe me . . . (☹️)

Usually . You didnt even know for sure . Sides , its not like ive given up after crashin' .

I dont got no reason to believe you anymore , 'boose . You've done and proven you aint someone thats worth trusting no more .

No , no , GB ! 'Course you wouldn't give up ! You ain't the average engine ! You're the reignin' champ , after all .

Look , I was risking a lot tryin' to crash the rust bucket ! Don't forget I was also in that race , Greaseball . Could've ended just as bad for me ! It's a very technical balancing act , you see . Can't do too much damage , or I'll get hurt too !

Let me ask you this , Greasey — you think you're so trustworthy ? Do you think you play fair ? None of us do !

I aint never said im trustworthy . That aint my deal . Been trynna play fair , but we both know i aint the most trustable guy out there . Dont matter no more now anyway . Gotta find a new coach ta be going with me .

See , we're the same in some ways ! If it's any consolation , GB , I trust ya ! (😀)

What happened with Dinah ? I heard something went wrong there . . . Real sorry 'bout that , pal .

We aint the same in no ways . Where i know I aint to be trusted , you seem ta be real keen on trynna get everyone to trust you . Even after everything's happened , you still seem to wanna have that .

I aint gon tell . An you aint gonna know .

You're so frustrating pal ! I know I messed up just a little last race . . . But I'm tryin' to fix it , y'see ! Don't ya miss when we were real buddies , huh ? Remember how fun that was !

Well . . . Dinah would tell me .

Frustrating , huh ?

An' you didnt just mess up a little . You know how much you messed it up , and you're just trynna crawl out the hole you dug yourself into during it . You aint slick no more , CB .

An go and ask her , if you really wanna know . But that'll be rid a' the last time I tell yous anythin' .

Ah geez , I'm wastin' my time here , aren't I ? There ain't nothing I could do to make you forgive me ? Nothin' at all ? You know I'm good with favours ! C'mon , doesn't that interest you , GB ?

I swear — I ain't done anything bad since the race !

You aint got nothin' that you could do fer me an you know it , CB . Why're you trying so hard to make dues anyway . Everyone knows you're a cheater , and a liar .

And ill believe that when I see it .

As said .

You aint slick no more .

C'mon , you don't want anyone crashing ? — or I could go 'round telling everyone how great you are ! I ain't any more of a cheater and a liar than you , GB ! Surely we gotta stick together ! 'ts not like you've got much of a gang anymore . . .

I aint got no one left ta crash . An working with you would jus prove all of em right . You talkin bout me ? No . Would just ruin my reputation more than crashing itself did .

An we aint .

My gang is gone , my gal is gone, an i aint got no reason ta cheat no more .

Boring , boring , boring !

When did ya change so much , GB ?!! It's like ya don't care anymore ! Just because you've lost your pals , don't mean it's the end of the world . . . Don't ya wanna start fresh ? You could be a respectable racer again !

Whatever — seems like you want nothin' to do with little old me anyway ! Maybe Electra will be nicer . . .

Yeah . I wanna start fresh alright . An' starting fresh means that I dont wanna be associated with you , of all people .

What do you think they'll think , huh ?

Former champion , still in cahoots with caboose after spectacular crash . Former hotshot , trynna climb his way out by cheating and bribing .

My only chance at making it , is if I make it on my own .

An if I gotta cut some people cause of it , so be it .

Oh , fine ! Have it your way . . . Jus' forget about everything I ever did to help ya ! I make one mistake , and suddenly I'm a total villain ? Don't seem right . . . But whatever suits you , boss .

Enjoy your life of loneliness and solitude !

You know where to find me if you change your mind .

Yeah . Yeah i do .

Good luck with Dinah .

I guess youll have better luck than me in tha' regard .

She aint even speak ta me no more without arguin .

That's your problem now , GB ! Bye-bye !

( Caboose skated away , not even looking back )

Whatever. Bye.

[ Greaseball watched before returning to his work. ]

have you heard theres a girl version of you?

Yeah.

Im better than her.

So it aint matter to me what they say.

you ?

better than me ?

alright old man, whatever helps you sleep at night.

Oh please.

You aint never gonna be better than me, jus' you wait and see. There aint nothin' you can do to be better.

i don't gotta do anything t' be better than you. i already am, and i always will be.

You really aint. You aint gonna prove nothin' if you keep gaslighting yourself into thinking youre better than someone who's better than you.

i aint gaslighting myself into thinking anything. it's not my fault i know my worth. im in my prime, and you're past yours.

I aint even past mine, you just dont know what the hell youre talking about. Didn't you crash recently? That part of yer prime too, kid?

like you ain't been crashed too. the crash wasn't even my fault, so it don't count. and i ain't no kid. 'm an adult. you're just old.

No im pretty sure yer jus young and stupid, kid. And please, it might s well have been with how you fell down and shit. Not even a bruise. Like a soccer player.

im plenty smart thank you very much !! and not even a bruise ?? yeah, right. that's some bullshit.

Y'might as well have been left unbruised when comparin'.

well then that just proves how good i am. means im strong.

It means you werent even goin' fast enough to get injured.

i was goin' faster than anyone else on that damn track even with that new coach holdin' me back !! i coulda gone faster too, but starlight forbid i don't wanna waste my energy being extra ahead of some over designed toaster and a rust bucket !!

Keyword . On tha' track . On another one , ya might s well have given up on the competition the moment you started .

An' ye couldnt have gone faster . If ya could have , you would have . Ensuring victory sounds like somethin' you'd do , so dont even bother lying bout tha .

givin' up is for losers, and im sure as hell not a loser.

i could have gone faster actually, just didn't feel the need to since my opponents were so slow. it's less fun when you're so far ahead of 'em. y' clearly don't know a thing about me.

"So slow" , an' if I recall , you were head ta head . So much fer them bein slow .

An you sure are . You lost , after all .

head t' head for the fun of it, duh.

and i wouldn't have lost if the crash didn't happen. that's the only reason that steamer won.

An just seconds ago you claimed to be moments ahead . Yeah . Real slick there , kid .

An' what about that electric ?

They couldve won just as well .

i mean- i was, but i was close t' the others.

the electric ??

you can't be serious.

Head ta head is head to head , kid .

You werent ahead .

An i am . If you could've won had there not been a crash , they could have as well .

they wouldn't have won shit !! everyone knows it. i woulda won and that's all there is t' say about that.

Do they?

Cause from what ive heard, plenty a' people think they would have.

ok, maybe not everyone.

anyone with common sense knows they would never have won against me.

Anyone with common sense would know that they had just as much of a chance as you did.

if that's what you wanna believe, that's your call, but it ain't true. i woulda thought you of all people would be able t' see that a diesel could easily beat an electric.

Guess its part a' reconsidering everything you ever were an' would be . You start to uncover a lot , then .

I think diesels can beat electrics . But in a head ta head , you both have the same amount a chance .

damn. . . no need to get all deep n' shit. . .

whatever. i know i woulda won. doesn't matter t' me what anyone else thinks about it.

Whatever, kid.

Howdy, pal ! Long time no see ;]

ok, maybe not everyone.

anyone with common sense knows they would never have won against me.

Anyone with common sense would know that they had just as much of a chance as you did.

[ The former champion sighs . He's been busy arguing and trying to sign in to smaller races . He's somewhat pissy about all of it , but at least he's outside now . He seems to be limping , slightly . ]

Howdy, pal ! Long time no see ;]

@thatredcaboose

...Caboose.

The hell you doin' here.

What's with that tone, buddy ?

Can't I visit my old friends every once in a while ?

You aint visit no one without no reason.

What're you doin' here.

Awh gee, what's got you so riled up ?!

I told ya — just sayin' hi ! It's been a while after all . . . Remind me , when was the last time I saw you ?

Nothin'. I just dont wanna see you.

Oh, piss off. If all yer all gonna do today is get me more pissed off, then you can beat it.

Hey — what did I ever do, GB ?!

You ain't being so nice today . . . I swear I'm not tryin' to upset you, buddy ! What sort of a friend would ever do that ?!

Like yer always nice, mr two face. I heard 'bout wha' you told that damn electric, when they came by while I was in repairs. Parently, you did a real shit job at takin' me out. Not Rusty. Me.

Tell me when the hell y'started planning fer tha', huh?

Whaaat ?! Lil' old me ? I would never ! You know how Electra likes to lie, pal . You wouldn't believe anything like that now, would you ? I wouldn't dare lay a finger on ya, Greaseball !

We never made no plans, buddy ! And I'll swear on it !

I aint so sure recently, Caboose. Seeing the final race and all, i got all belief that you'd do somethin' like that. Besides, you aint had no qualms about disqualifying someone after making them believe youre their friend. Kinda hard to believe yous then, aint it.

What can I say — I'm a changed man ! Things got a bit . . . dire during the race ! Even a champ like yourself has to admit ya did a few things you ain't especially proud of , huh ?

You talking 'bout Rusty ? That was totally different , buddy ! I took him out for the benefit of everyone , see . Did it for you and Electra ! Races are no fun with a lousy steamer !

Dire . . . Like y' wouldnt have done it if Rusty weren't there , even though you very much would've .

And please . You aint even take him out right . He came back the next race , and you had nothin' ta show for yer doin' .

Hey ! It ain't my fault he had some freaky religious awakenin' ! Usually after being crashed , engines give up on all their dreams !

Well . . . Suppose I can't do much if ya don't believe me . . . (☹️)

Usually . You didnt even know for sure . Sides , its not like ive given up after crashin' .

I dont got no reason to believe you anymore , 'boose . You've done and proven you aint someone thats worth trusting no more .

No , no , GB ! 'Course you wouldn't give up ! You ain't the average engine ! You're the reignin' champ , after all .

Look , I was risking a lot tryin' to crash the rust bucket ! Don't forget I was also in that race , Greaseball . Could've ended just as bad for me ! It's a very technical balancing act , you see . Can't do too much damage , or I'll get hurt too !

Let me ask you this , Greasey — you think you're so trustworthy ? Do you think you play fair ? None of us do !

I aint never said im trustworthy . That aint my deal . Been trynna play fair , but we both know i aint the most trustable guy out there . Dont matter no more now anyway . Gotta find a new coach ta be going with me .

See , we're the same in some ways ! If it's any consolation , GB , I trust ya ! (😀)

What happened with Dinah ? I heard something went wrong there . . . Real sorry 'bout that , pal .

We aint the same in no ways . Where i know I aint to be trusted , you seem ta be real keen on trynna get everyone to trust you . Even after everything's happened , you still seem to wanna have that .

I aint gon tell . An you aint gonna know .

You're so frustrating pal ! I know I messed up just a little last race . . . But I'm tryin' to fix it , y'see ! Don't ya miss when we were real buddies , huh ? Remember how fun that was !

Well . . . Dinah would tell me .

Frustrating , huh ?

An' you didnt just mess up a little . You know how much you messed it up , and you're just trynna crawl out the hole you dug yourself into during it . You aint slick no more , CB .

An go and ask her , if you really wanna know . But that'll be rid a' the last time I tell yous anythin' .

Ah geez , I'm wastin' my time here , aren't I ? There ain't nothing I could do to make you forgive me ? Nothin' at all ? You know I'm good with favours ! C'mon , doesn't that interest you , GB ?

I swear — I ain't done anything bad since the race !

You aint got nothin' that you could do fer me an you know it , CB . Why're you trying so hard to make dues anyway . Everyone knows you're a cheater , and a liar .

And ill believe that when I see it .

As said .

You aint slick no more .

C'mon , you don't want anyone crashing ? — or I could go 'round telling everyone how great you are ! I ain't any more of a cheater and a liar than you , GB ! Surely we gotta stick together ! 'ts not like you've got much of a gang anymore . . .

I aint got no one left ta crash . An working with you would jus prove all of em right . You talkin bout me ? No . Would just ruin my reputation more than crashing itself did .

An we aint .

My gang is gone , my gal is gone, an i aint got no reason ta cheat no more .

Boring , boring , boring !

When did ya change so much , GB ?!! It's like ya don't care anymore ! Just because you've lost your pals , don't mean it's the end of the world . . . Don't ya wanna start fresh ? You could be a respectable racer again !

Whatever — seems like you want nothin' to do with little old me anyway ! Maybe Electra will be nicer . . .

Yeah . I wanna start fresh alright . An' starting fresh means that I dont wanna be associated with you , of all people .

What do you think they'll think , huh ?

Former champion , still in cahoots with caboose after spectacular crash . Former hotshot , trynna climb his way out by cheating and bribing .

My only chance at making it , is if I make it on my own .

An if I gotta cut some people cause of it , so be it .

have you heard theres a girl version of you?

Yeah.

Im better than her.

So it aint matter to me what they say.

you ?

better than me ?

alright old man, whatever helps you sleep at night.

Oh please.

You aint never gonna be better than me, jus' you wait and see. There aint nothin' you can do to be better.

i don't gotta do anything t' be better than you. i already am, and i always will be.

You really aint. You aint gonna prove nothin' if you keep gaslighting yourself into thinking youre better than someone who's better than you.

i aint gaslighting myself into thinking anything. it's not my fault i know my worth. im in my prime, and you're past yours.

I aint even past mine, you just dont know what the hell youre talking about. Didn't you crash recently? That part of yer prime too, kid?

like you ain't been crashed too. the crash wasn't even my fault, so it don't count. and i ain't no kid. 'm an adult. you're just old.

No im pretty sure yer jus young and stupid, kid. And please, it might s well have been with how you fell down and shit. Not even a bruise. Like a soccer player.

im plenty smart thank you very much !! and not even a bruise ?? yeah, right. that's some bullshit.

Y'might as well have been left unbruised when comparin'.

well then that just proves how good i am. means im strong.

It means you werent even goin' fast enough to get injured.

i was goin' faster than anyone else on that damn track even with that new coach holdin' me back !! i coulda gone faster too, but starlight forbid i don't wanna waste my energy being extra ahead of some over designed toaster and a rust bucket !!

Keyword . On tha' track . On another one , ya might s well have given up on the competition the moment you started .

An' ye couldnt have gone faster . If ya could have , you would have . Ensuring victory sounds like somethin' you'd do , so dont even bother lying bout tha .

givin' up is for losers, and im sure as hell not a loser.

i could have gone faster actually, just didn't feel the need to since my opponents were so slow. it's less fun when you're so far ahead of 'em. y' clearly don't know a thing about me.

"So slow" , an' if I recall , you were head ta head . So much fer them bein slow .

An you sure are . You lost , after all .

head t' head for the fun of it, duh.

and i wouldn't have lost if the crash didn't happen. that's the only reason that steamer won.

An just seconds ago you claimed to be moments ahead . Yeah . Real slick there , kid .

An' what about that electric ?

They couldve won just as well .

i mean- i was, but i was close t' the others.

the electric ??

you can't be serious.

Head ta head is head to head , kid .

You werent ahead .

An i am . If you could've won had there not been a crash , they could have as well .

they wouldn't have won shit !! everyone knows it. i woulda won and that's all there is t' say about that.

Do they?

Cause from what ive heard, plenty a' people think they would have.

Howdy, pal ! Long time no see ;]
