STORY 21 CONDITION = 21 DONE ID = 33 Excuse me. ID = 0 Huh? ID = 33 SHOW CENTER ID = 0 (It's not too nice to have her behind me, though.) (What's with this class sneaking up on me all the time? It's gotta be a conspiracy of some sort.) Umm, hi. #Three so far, and counting. ID = 33 Yes, hi. Umehara Ryoko. Very nice to meet you, . FRIENDLY I think we can help each other out. ID = 0 How so? ID = 33 The girl you just turned down... ID = 0 I don't want to get together with her if that's what you're asking. ID = 33 UNFRIENDLY I really wouldn't try. NEUTRAL. Can we talk? ID = 0 Look, sorry, but I'm happy not being involved with Kyouki. I don't know what you want, and I don't really want to, or have time to listen to it. Class is about to start. I have to go. ID = 33 ERASE CENTER Then why did she go away? ID = 0 Huh? ID = 33 SHOW CENTER You said it. Class is about to start. Our classroom is right here. Why did she leave? ID = 0 ...To get to the restroom? ID = 33 FRIENDLY Down the stairs? All floors have their own toilets. ID = 0 Fine, then where is she going? ID = 33 OTHER2 Somewhere were people can't hear her cry. ID = 0 But- What she said- ID = 33 NEUTRAL You echo each other awfully well. She held herself back to spare you from the whole school talking about it the rest of the term. ID = 0 And why would every student pay attention to me all of the sudden? ID = 33 UNFRIENDLY Because they pay attention to her all the time, and they just saw you with her. ID = 0 Okay, good point. But can't we just leave her alone? She would get better eventually... ID = 33 And your conscience? ID = 0 ... (Damn it. I really don't feel very well about Kyouki. I didn't even give her a chance.) (Why did I get involved in all this drama? It feels like it's smothering me.) ID = 33 NEUTRAL Do you think you might need some help now? LIKE ID = 0 ... :sigh: ID = 33 UNFRIENDLY ID = 0 Yes, I might, but... You want something in return, don't you? You said we could 'help each other out'. ID = 33 NEUTRAL Well, yes and no. It's good for me to get involved. ID = 0 Now you're being cryptic on purpose. ID = 33 NEUTRAL I'm happy to answer questions, just not here. Tell you what, next time you come around, we will buy some drinks and talk it off. LIKE What do you say? Tabs are on me! ID = 0 A: MIND 30 I- I'm not sure if I want to. (Or what's happening anymore. Something feels off. I just can't quite put my finger on it.) JUMP B BRANCH A ID = 0 (Wait a minute. This doesn't make any sense. She could tell me right here if she wanted to, nobody can hear us.) (That means she doesn't want to be seen. I don't know what she's up to, but she's definitely up to something.) (Well, I can't let her think I'm an easy target if that's the case, can I? I didn't actually plan this, but I can pretend I did.) Hmm, I'm not sure. JUMP B BRANCH B ID = 33 Come on! I know this is odd, you don't know the whole story. Let me explain! I'm sure we will figure something out. FRIENDLY Come oooon... ID = 0 Okay, okay. Sure, I can give you a chance. ID = 33 LIKE AFF DOWN I knew you would see my point! #She's actually dissapointed that the Player was so easy. But was he? C: MIND 30 ID = 0 Heh, it's just common courtesy, I guess? You know. ID = 33 I do. ID = 0 (And it's hard to refuse a pretty girl. Kyouki excluded.) ID = 33 FRIENDLY Come see me the next break you're free. I'll squeeze you in.) ID = 0 See you then! ID = 33 Bye! ERASE CENTER (I check my watch. I'm almost five minutes late. First because of Kyouki, and now this...) (I am going to get grounded for eternity if I keep cutting classes to chit-chat.) BRANCH C (Oh, wouldn't I? But you haven't seen mine...) It's not that. I just didn't want you to draw the short straw. ID = 33 UNFRIENDLY AFF DOWN Oh? ID = 0 You were too preoccupied with me to notice when your teacher let the rest of the class in. #Which is odd, considering she has the eyes of a hawk. And the blushing... I wonder what may be going on here. Don't you?;) ID = 33 OTHER1 ... ID = 0 :snicker: (She looks at the door in bewilderment. I stood the opposite side of the classroom this whole time out of pure luck, granted, but she doesn't have to know that.) (Didn't think I could play the game, did you?) I never thought I was so captivating. I'm flattered, actually. ID = 33 AFF UP 60 ... FRIENDLY :inhale: So I see it was wonderful to talk to you but now I must be going we'll talk later byeeee! ERASE CENTER *slams door* ID = 0 (That? That was odd. I guess everyone has a little bit of what Kyouki has, one way or another...)
