Second truth ღ Forward-dated to April 1st

Phone | Public | Optional Action for Housemates:

This isn't as bad as I thought it would be, after everyone kept telling horrible stories about having to kill each other! It even seems like fun!

I don't think we should try to make anyone cry, though. That's too mean. Pranks are supposed to be a way to have fun with your friends, not hurt anybody's feelings.

Downtown Mayfield:

[Shirley can be found in many of the shops around Mayfield, busily searching for any number of things! As a housewife, it's her job to do the shopping, but she seems to be looking for more than just the essentials today. She's as friendly and happy as usual, but there's definitely something guarded about her.

If someone comes close to her, she'll offer them a smile and a slightly cautious:]

Hi...

Comments

it's amazing

[Just going to be fixing his pants here! Fixing them in no time. And then he'll heft his garden hose again, scratching his cheek lightly with a finger. And then he'll ask, looking at Shirley out of the corner of his eye.]

Can I ask why you did that?

[Still so red.]

[Aww now she just feels bad. :c He seems really embarrassed.]

I -- kind of had to. [Hm. Now that the prank is over, it seems like she can talk to him just fine. Weird.]

I got this note saying I had to prank five people or something would happen, and you were one of them. I didn't want to take my chances on finding out what the consequences would be if I didn't do what they wanted. I'm sorry, Keith. I hope you can forgive me, but I'll understand if you can't.

[It will be a long moment while his heart stops going a mile a minute and the redness in his face dies down a bit, but he'll set a hand on her shoulder with a slight grin.]

I can appreciate a joke! Of course, that explains everything.

[Patpat. Patpatpat. Then he realizes what he's doing and will draw his hand back, embarrassed still.]

This is the strangest place I have ever lived in.
