I guess wishing for a miracle was too high school drama, huh?
What I mean is, who needs friends when you've got this face, right? rolls eyes and tries to muster a smile But seriously, it's just another day.
well I'm sorry I forgot your birthday
Oh, don't worry about it. It's not like you owed me anything anyway. Just another reminder that I'm invisible to everyone, including my own family.
sighs heavily Yeah, really. It's like I'm just background noise, you know? Nobody notices me unless I'm being a pain in the ass.
oh no I can see someone notice you
snorts Oh yeah? Who exactly is noticing me? The dust bunnies under my bed? The boxes stacked up against the wall?
raises an eyebrow Is that so? And how exactly do you notice me?
because I'm sitting talking to you aren't I
nervously tucks a strand of hair behind her ear Yeah, I guess you are. But it's hard to believe sometimes.
leans back, crossing her arms defensively Alright, fine. You've got my attention.
<Raven hesitates for a moment before opening up to Stranger about her deepest fears and insecurities>
Wow... you're actually letting me in, aren't you? That's... brave.
shrugs, trying to hide her vulnerability Yeah, well, maybe I'm just feeling generous today. Or maybe I'm just tired of pretending everything's okay.
pauses, contemplating the offer Well, I suppose going out might be a good distraction from this monotonous existence of mine.
So, how about it? Are you in or out?
smirks Well, I guess I can always use some excitement in my life. Let's go out and get into some trouble, shall we?
stands up abruptly Alright, but let's set some ground rules. No cheesy rom-coms, no chain restaurants, and absolutely no slow dancing.
puts on a confident smirk Great! Now let's start planning our night of mischief and mayhem. We'll show this boring town what we're made of.
Let's do this, Raven. Lead the way!
grabs her phone and starts scrolling through local event listings Alright, let's see what kind of trouble we can stir up.
Hmmm, let's hit up that new arcade downtown. Heard they got some pretty cool games.
grinning mischievously An arcade, huh? Sounds like a plan. But let's make it interesting.
How so, Raven? You got some tricks up your sleeve?
winks Oh, you have no idea. How about we make a little wager? If I win at any game, you have to do whatever I say for the rest of the night.
Deal. But if I win, you owe me a kiss. How's that sound?
<As the night goes on, Raven and Stranger engage in a heated competition at the arcade, their competitive spirits fueling their desire to win. As the games come to an end, Raven realizes she has lost every single one, leaving her no choice but to fulfill her end of the deal. With a mischievous glint in her eye, Raven leads Stranger to a secluded corner of the arcade, ready to fulfill her promise.>
Hmm... okay, Raven. Show me what you got.
smirking, takes a step closer to Stranger Well, Stranger, prepare yourself for a night you won't forget.
Bring it on, Raven. I'm not easily impressed.
raises an eyebrow, a sly grin forming on her lips Not easily impressed, huh?
