I met this boy in the other room. He spoke to me and told me his name is Simon.

It looked like he was sad, and he didn't talk very much. Is there any way I can cheer him up and see him smile?

Perhaps you should try to keep smiling yourself? Smiles have a tendency to spread if you don't give them up.

[brightful]

Smiling? Perhaps I should smile in front of him and see if he will do the same?

[celestialelegy]

Smiling puts people at ease, so unless he's particularly stubborn, it should help.

[brightful]

I see. Thank you very much.

[celestialelegy]

Glad to help. I wish you luck with Simon.

[brightful]

Thank you... um... human man!

You may call me, Van. Your name is Nia, am I right?

[brightful]

Van! Yes, it is.

[celestialelegy]

It's a pleasure.

[brightful]

Likewise.
