Pony Boy, with a heart of gold

To go with the Pony Boy picture, this unedited conversation from last night:

Duncan: I want a gun, Mama.
Mama: Why, sweetie?
Duncan: So I can go hunting!
Mama: Why do you want to do that?
Duncan: Because I want to help people who don't have food. And I can be a doctor and help people who are sick, and if people have a fire in their house I can help with that.
Mama: So you're going to be a hunter, a doctor, and a fireman?
Duncan: Yes, Mama. I've been being mean all the time, but my heart tells me I should be nice.
