[Certainly this is a pretty hot afternoon! Your throat is parched, your brow covered in sweat... fortunately a young girl is suddenly standing behind you, a pitcher of water and a cup in hand]

Would you like a drink?

[it's just water, surely the price for this is very cheap!]

[noeyestosee]

Hmm? [how did I not hear you earlier?]

[crushbutterfly]

[it's because she wasn't there a moment ago]

I'm offering water, Miss. It's a very good deal.

[noeyestosee]

...

Well what is the deal?

[crushbutterfly]

Allowing me to assist you with your troubles.

[noeyestosee]

[chuckles]

Thank you, but I'm afraid I have none.

[crushbutterfly]

Everyone has troubles. They just choose to accept their suffering.

[noeyestosee]

But some troubles cannot be solved, so whilst I appreciate your kindness, I'll have to decline.

[crushbutterfly]

[another foolish soul]

So be it. I will find you should you change your mind.

[noeyestosee]

[the love of my life is in hiding in another dimension and I have no eyeballs what exactly are you going to do?]

A charity, is it?

[crushbutterfly]

[make you forget those problems, obviously]

Something like that. I was assisted during the time of my suffering, now I wish to return to the favor.

[noeyestosee]

...In exchange for giving other people water?

[crushbutterfly]

I thought people would be more open to hearing me out of I offered them a tangible thing. Many here are quite doubting, unfortunately.

[noeyestosee]

Have you tried simply explaining? What about any other people you've helped?

[crushbutterfly]

Sadly, I have only been able to help one person since my arrival.

[and he later went on to murder his little sister. whoops!]

Even when I explain, I get turned down. It is almost like they enjoy their burdens.

[noeyestosee]

...they may feel as if they're their own responsibility. People are like that.

[crushbutterfly]

No one will praise you for agreeing to suffer. You can choose to be free.
