To be fair, the way Travis can talk sometimes, no one else knows what he's saying either.

"I get it, alright, I'm sorry, but I think I'd know if I suddenly developed psychic powers--I've got enough going on already, it's not like--" it'd make any sense for me to get more bullcrap on top of it. There's something called 'too much' and that's just over the line of too much.

Somewhere between him talking and him thinktexting he looked as though he was putting far too much thought into something otherwise easy, but he wanted to prove the guy wrong. He wanted to come through this cleanly.

He wanted to not actually be dead and come back through this like he was a normal person.

"See, it didn't work."

He doesn't know that it did. And he can't, unfortunately for most parties, stop talking.
