Confession VI

[shotapope]

[Phone]

The end of the school year is coming up really soon, isn't it? It's been such a fun experience getting to be with and meet everyone.

[He seems to have completely forgotten the fact that whenever he is at school he has a nervous breakdown.]

Even though this isn't our real home it's still been full of so many unique and special occasions. At home I would never have met so many different types of people, and for that I'm grateful.

[Wait a second, doesn't this kid usually stutter so bad it's hard to follow what he's saying?]

Thank you all for allowing me these precious memories.


Action; Around town.]

[Alessandro seems to be effected by whatever is going on around Mayfield. He's a lot less shy and that stutter is gone, he seems just a bit more refined and upbeat as well. He seems to be running errands and talking politely to everyone, even the drones....]

[Isn't that the sorry little guy who usually can't get a full sentence out of his mouth?

Weird.] Finally grow some balls?

[phone]

[shotapope]

I'm not sure I understand your words.

[He was a little better but still slightly awkward.]

[phone]

[noluckduck]

Look at you, talkin' like it's no big deal!

Of course, it's easy over the phone.

[phone]

[shotapope]

Well... true. But it's not that hard to talk with friends in person either. I mean, I wouldn't want to make large public statements or anything but talking normally isn't that hard.

[phone]

[noluckduck]

Oh, yeah?

Wanna say that to my face?

[phone]

[shotapope]

Um...

[Did he say something rude?]

If you wish?

[phone]

[noluckduck]

[Bully logic. It cannot be questioned.]

Right now?

[phone]

[shotapope]

I-is you insist on it? I'm not really sure why you're making such a big deal though.

[phone]

[noluckduck]

'Cause you're usually a pussy?

[phone]

[shotapope]

It's true I'm not the most social but isn't that a little... and with that kind of language... an exaggeration?

[phone]

[noluckduck]

[In a high-pitched, mocking tone:] Ooh, language.

[phone]

[shotapope]

It is rather rude to speak that way.

[answerer_sword]

Hello, Alessandro.

[Unlike her usual calm demeanor, Bazett actually greets the boy with a smile this time.]

[shotapope]

Good day Miss Bazett, I hope you're fairing well today.

[answerer_sword]

Yes, I am doing very well. Just going to make sure my allies are alright because some people seem to be acting strangely.

[shotapope]

Really? I can't say I've really noticed, but then I've been busy with end of school preparations and some errands.

[answerer_sword]

I see. This town...does seem to have quieted down lately.

[shotapope]

Isn't that a good thing?

[answerer_sword]

It's a very good thing, but I can't help but worry a little about what might happen next.

[shotapope]

Yous suspect something bad will happen?

[answerer_sword]

It seems strange for the town's authorities to revert to relatively harmless events after the debacle in January. I'm worried that they might be building up to something really bad.

[shotapope]

Perhaps.... But there's nothing wrong with hoping for the best, right?

[answerer_sword]

That is a good suggestion. Either way, you do not have to worry. Even if you do not know how to fight, the rest of us will protect you.

[shotapope]

I would rather no one had to fight....

[answerer_sword]

[She sighs.]

I share that wish.
