Steven's paced himself through the meal, though now that he's thinking and talking more, he's slowed down a bit to just picking at his food.

"I dunno, I think-- I'd get to know you better. Maybe we can-- find more common ground. Things to talk about. Maybe I'll be more self-sufficient. More... like you." He's not thinking he'll spend a few days amongst the trees and come back like Bear Grylls but at the very least he'll have experienced something different. Starting fire with rocks seems like a cool skill to learn.

"If I can't do something out of my comfort zone now, I'll never get the chance. This is kind of it, Marc. Now or never. It's not even-- really all that reckless." At least, he didn't think so anyway. "Imagine if I'd just-- died in my flat. Never been to Egypt. Didn't do nothing. That would've been my life. Not a single thing you could've written on my grave."
