   Summary

   Courier Six finds out the hard way that even while trying to do the right thing for once, he can still find ways to massively fuck things up.
   There is no stopping his fall from grace, so the least he can do is drag Joshua along for the ride.
   And if they warm up to each other at least a little in the progress? Well, you won't find him complaining.

   Or:
   Six tries to play diplomat and manages to accidentally kill an entire tribe of people. Consequences ensue.
