At which point, I would have asked him if he preferred I ruin everyone's day
by dying because someone couldn't find my kit, or didn't know it existed, or
just ruin his by being inauthentic while trying to protect my own life.
Some people are so self-centered and unthinking that it honestly never occurs

complain that the hall has visible smoke detectors, pull stations, and fire
extinguishers, not to mention large, lighted "EXIT" signs over every door.
