Crackbaby: THIS SUCKS!

And all these people...It's...
Crackbaby: FREAKING ME OUT! @~@
a little overwhelming...

My apologies, Demyx, Lexaeus, and Miss Namine.
I may be some time...

Aw! Don’t cry Mr. Scientist man! I’m sure someone will actually take pity on you after awhile and point you in the right direction. Or, you know, you could just ask someone. But that might be too much for ya, hmm? Do you have any idea where you are?

You shouldn’t be gone too long. You’re friend the stool might get worried. -giggles-

[winterobsession]

I'm not crying!
They've tried already...it hasn't been particularly helpful...
(I think they're pointing me in the wrong direction on purpose...)
Too much for me? What does -that- mean?
And no, no I don't, thank you very much. -_-;

The stool is NOT my friend!
Crackbaby: I miss the stool u.u

[machinalove]

Are you suuure? Cause it kinda sounded like you were crying up there. -nods-

Well that’s mean! Are you asking them nicely? That could explain why.
I just meant that with your social skills, you might now want to talk to people. But you already proved me wrong! See, maybe you aren’t so weird after all!
Even after you talked to people! I think you’re asking the wrong questions then!

But you said it was a nice stool! I think you're in denial. The stool is going to be very sad when it hears that.

[winterobsession]

Well, I wasn't! >_>
Of course I'm asking nicely! I have manners...
a little outdated, maybe, but I have them....
I don't know where everyone got the idea that I'm "weird" in the first place...I'm quite normal, actually. I'm just a scientist trying to...oh nevermind.

I...I think I'm somewhere in Kalm...or...near Kalm...?
I'm not sure...and I'd rather not ask anyone again. >.>;

Well, it -is- a nice stool...but I'm capable of having friends other than it! I...uh...Baralai, yes! Baralai is a friend of mine. So.

Crackbaby: I still miss the stool...I want my stool~ T~T

[machinalove]

I think you weeeeeere.
Manners? You haven’t even asked me what my name is yet and you think you have manners? Haha, you’re funny. I almost feel bad for the people you talked to.
Are you really? Maybe it’s because you’re friends with a stool? I don’t know about you, but I don’t make a point of talking to things that don’t talk back. Sorry.

So you admit it! The stool -is- your friend! I knew it! All he needs is a name and he’ll be all set. We can call him… Sherwood! Sherwood the friendly stool! It has kind of a nice ring to it, doesn’t it?

Baralai? Is he a desk?

[winterobsession]

I wasn't!
Maybe I was going to...but I certainly didn't!
>_>

Oh!...Uh...right.
And you-your name is?
There? See. Manners.

I don't-! Well, yes, as I said, I've spoken AT it before, but not WITH it...they're completely different things, really...

You've...named my stool?
I'm weird for talking at it, but it's normal for you to name it?? @_@

...sdffsdfd. Baralai is a man from Macalania! I lived there as well! NO he is NOT a desk. -____-'''

Crackbaby: I actually like 'Sherwood' :DD

[machinalove]

You can’t hide it from me! I know you were!

There we go! My name’s Rikku. And that was a very nice step in the right direction. Now all we have to teach you is how to be nicer to girls and you’ll be all set.

I think you have! You just don’t want to say anything because you know that I’d laugh at you if you told me. I won’t. I promise. Besides, you’re just hurting Sherwood’s feelings by ignoring his contributions to your life like this.

Of course I have! How can you be best friends with something that doesn’t have a name? Sherwood makes it much more personal. And it’s a nice name. I’m just trying to help you out! Make your relationship deeper and all that stuff. You should thank me!

He isn’t a desk? Are you sure? Aw, so Sherwood is back home all alone! How heartless of you. But you -did- have friends! You aren’t completely socially retarded! Yay!

…Unless he was your boyfriend. Was he?

[winterobsession]

Oh for the last time I WASN'T!

Rikku...then...it is of interest to have met you.
Ah...why, exactly? I'm polite enough as it is, why would I need to be more polite to...girls..?

Well...maybe once or twice..but only because I was suprised! the results of that experiment were unexpected and fascinating!
But I'm not best friends with Sher-I mean, the stool! and I will -not- be thanking you, thank you very much!...oh, dammit. >_<

Of course I'm not soc- UNLESS HE WAS WHAT!? -blush like whoah-
Tha-that's preposterous! He's only a friend!
I've never had relations of that sort at all! Mu-much less with another man!

[machinalove]

Sure. Sure. If it makes you feel better about yourself… Crybaby!!!“It is of interest to have met you?” See it’s comments like that! No girl wants to be told it’s of interest to have met her! You’re supposed to say something nice like “It’s a pleasure,” or “I am honored”. Something that makes her feel like her presence is welcome, not just a point of interest. Now try it again! Come on

[winterobsession]

I'm not a crybaby! Stop teasing me!

They don't? But what's wrong with it?? >_<
Okay...umm.. "Rikku, then, it's a pleasure".
There. How was that?

But he's a stool! He-IT doesn't have feelings!

You...you don't win anything!
Of course I am, after a question like that!
I-I certainly do not! And you'll do no such thing!
I do not have a...a "crush" on Baralai!
He is simply a friend I met!
RIKKU!

[machinalove]

I’m not teasing! I’m just pointing out the truth. Since -you- won’t admit it. You should confess to your feelings. I bet it’d make you feel better!

Better! -claps- But now… Introduce yourself! It doesn’t matter if I can read it on your journal. Unless, of course, you’d like me to call you ‘Mr. Scientist’ or ‘Sherwood’s Best Friend’ for the rest of our acquaintance. Which I don’t exactly mind.

How dare you say that! He does too have feelings, and right now you’re smashing them all into little splintery pieces. You know you love him. Why put him through this!

I do too win! You do liiiiike him! Why are you denying it so passionately? It’s just because you’re embarrassed, isn’t it! Let me tell him, pleeeeeeeeaaaaase? And then you can know if your love is truly unrequited! You know, I’m going to do it anyway so…

[winterobsession]

There's nothing to admit! really!

Introduce myself?? ...well, my name is Vexen...and no, you may NOT call me any of those! My name is VEXEN.

He-IT does NOT have feelings Rikku! H-IT's just a stool! He is useful and yes sometimes I talk to h-IT but it is just a stool! and I'm not telling it I love it!

N-no, you don't win! There's no prize here! There's nothing to deny, I simply DO NOT have a 'crush' on Baralai! If you tell him anything you will be spreading slanderous lies!
Oh Shiva...you'd better not say anything that stupid!
Are ALL women this frustrating, or is it just you?

[machinalove]

Riiiiiight. Why not just admit that I’m right then? That way I’ll know you were crying, and you won’t have to say anything that will lessen your manly pride. You should know by now I’m not going to drop this.

All right. You’ve passed my manners test. Good job. Have a lollipop… Sherwood’s Crazy Scientist Ex-Stool mate

I went out of my way to pick out a name for Sherwood and you won’t even call him it! He does too have feelings! You’re going to make him cry, Vexen! Is that what you want?! After all he’s done for you! TELL HIM YOU LOVE HIM!

I think you do! Come on, he’s probably very attractive and very well off, right? So why not just admit it! You two can do ‘experiments’ together and share secret test results and… other things scientists do. I don’t know! I’m not spreading lies! Because it’s true!!
Just watch me. What’s his journal naaame?
I’m going to pretend you didn’t say that.

[winterobsession]

Well...find...you're....you're right...but ONLY JUST A LITTLE. I...I don't like people...

A...lollipop? No thank you...I've never had any. Candy I mean.

FINE. When I get home I will tell it-Sherwood that I...love it...him...There. Does that make you happy??

I wouldn't know what he looks like! Or how well off he is!! All that doesn't matter anyways!! I DO NOT have a Crush on him!
We..we could not! He's not even a scientist, it would muck up the purity of my lab! You....you don't even know my sexuality!
What if I was attracted to some girl and here you were saying these things! HM?

[machinalove]

See? Was that so hard? No it wasn’t.

Never? You poor, deprived creature. Sugar is the best!

Yes! That makes me, and Sherwood, -very- happy. Thank you.

All righty. But don’t come crying to me when you’re old and alone because you didn’t let the sweet, caring girl on the internet talk to your true love so you ended up never falling in love and living happily ever after. I wash my hands of it.
…Or not. What do you mean ‘the sanctity of your lab’? Like, you don’t let people in there? Ever? Because they’re uncleanly or something?
Well that would be disappointing. Especially if she ever decided to read this. But then she- wait. So there’s a girl you like?!

[winterobsession]

Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't.

No, never...I don't see the point in it, really.
And you're...welcome?

He isn't my true love. I don't like him in that way, how many times must I tell you??
NO. No one is allowed in the lab...one or two people are allowed in the 'living area' I suppose...but Never in the lab!
Well. I didn't say there was one, necessarily...I merely said 'what if'? It's...a valid scientific query...
