Yeah, 'course I'll stay. I wouldn't leave ya alone like this.

[... Don't pay close attention to the irony of those words if you can help it, Ford.]

And, uh, don't worry about the blood, that's not something I'm too chuffed about right now. I'm just glad that you're alive.

[And here with us, and not currently being possessed by an evil dorito...]

[Sadly, the irony hits him and the laugh Ford barks out sounds as painful as it is. Despite everything though--the pain, the irony, the encroaching numbness--he leans on his friend (not that he can do anything else) and he's grateful for that lifeline.

Grateful enough that he can at least give Fiddleford a fair warning.]

...thank you, Fidds... [He tries desperately to keep his eyes open.] I don't think I'm going to die--but--if I do, it's-- it's not permanent. I swear, it's not. So don't-- don't worry. I'm-- I'm going to be fine. We're going to be fine.
