<Snipped quote by Valiance>

It's appreciated. I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to touch a thing in this lab.
*The machine riffles through the papers and encloses over them, projecting a pitch-black sphere lazily through the air, which is absorbed by the cylinder*

*Knocks on the top of your head*
Your head’s in the right place. Just a wee bit, yeah. I have him beat anyway.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

*chuckles*
What happened with him? From what I hear he normally doesn’t interact directly, like his pops.

<Snipped quote by Zeal>

Just another disaster on the mountain. A fight at the base from what I saw. I didn’t stick around.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

That’s even more odd. Huh, new times create new scenarios I guess.

<Snipped quote by Zeal>

*Laughs*
As if conflict at the base is something that has ever changed since it was created. He was just spectating, which I’m sure he and others do more often than you come to think about.

*Watches while speaking*
I really don’t. But I know how paper works at least.

*Sits by the roaring fireplace, reading a book*

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*gently places my hand on your shoulder, looking to you*

Pretty good book, eh?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

*Turns the page*
It’s not bad. I don’t like the deuteragonist very much, though.

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

Hmm? How come?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

He’s a little too helpless, and the buildup for his love interest with the protagonist is far too obvious. She’s a much more interesting character.

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

Interesting. How is he too helpless?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

It’s like everything he does is a setup to make the main character look good. He never solves the main problem himself. The formula is getting boring.

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

Oh? is it intentional?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Which part?

*face-plants into our couch and groans*

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

The deuteragonist setting things up to make the main character look good. Maybe it's intentional? And act of love perhaps?
