And with M.T. agreeing to travel with Jesse and the deer (they're not friends, just both friends with the deer, baka), and Jesse revealing that his number is actually currently one higher than when he boarded the train, we end sipdode 2.

Finally.

[flerpliveblogsinfinitytrain]

Of course.

Jesse: "I like how your hair is made of needles. My compliments to the chef."

Jesse... do you think before you speak?

It's okay, I don't either.

[flerpliveblogsinfinitytrain]

And as M.T. apologizes, the branches begin to recede.

[flerpliveblogsinfinitytrain]

And as he realizes that he can't please everyone, his number goes back down.

[flerpliveblogsinfinitytrain]

Jesse's number just went up (only by one though). It seems he has trouble trying to make everyone happy, and can't stand being forced to choose one side over the other.

[flerpliveblogsinfinitytrain]

So apparently I was wrong, and the branches do grow in response to arguments.

And the people in the tree don't seem to be able to feel M.T. breaking them down.

So apparently the people in the tree are dead. Marietta died choking on an orange peel, and Nathaniel sat down on a toilet seat too hard.

As well, rumors are spreading very quickly through the tree (is it a grape-tobacco hybrid?).
