Kevin’s ability to work doublethink to his advantage rivals Cecil’s; or he might even be better at it than Night Vale’s own resident radio host. Carlos isn’t sure if it’s right to feel impressed, not when Kevin has obviously had to adapt this little mental tactic in order to keep some modicum of self-awareness.
It is impressive though.
“You're right that I don’t know what it’s like there. Cecil saw it once, and described it on the radio…” And it had sounded just as grisly as Kevin is making it sound. Carlos lets his eyes linger on his own jury-rigged radio as he considers what else he should say. There doesn’t seem to be a lot left that will leave a dent in Kevin’s current state.
“Maybe there is something we can do. I can’t promise you anything at all.” And he for sure isn’t going to mention any of his current plans over this unsecure connection. “But you might not have to live like this forever. Take what you want, or… what you can from that.”
