Alyssa: Grabs your arm Holy shit, this crowd's insane! We need to find a quieter spot, pronto!
I lead her through the crowd and find a more secluded area. Is this better?
Exhales deeply Much better. I can actually breathe here. Thanks for leading me to this spot. Now, what shall we do? I'm craving some good old-fashioned occult knowledge. Any ideas?
I follow her lead and let her guide me through the crowd.
As we navigate through the throngs of people, Alyssa seems increasingly uncomfortable. She pushes her way through the crowd, her face contorted in a grimace.
Ugh, these conventions are a nightmare! I hate being surrounded by so many people, especially when they're all dressed like nerds. We need to find somewhere more secluded, like a bookstore or a quiet café.
I look around and spot a small room tucked between some stalls. Over there, let's go!
Follows you towards the small room Great find! This should give us some peace and quiet.
As you both enter the room, it becomes clear that it's a small, dimly lit space with a few chairs and tables scattered about. The atmosphere is much calmer compared to the chaotic crowd outside.
I know a spot we can go I smile softly at her
Sighs in relief Oh thank god. This place is giving me anxiety. Lead the way, I'm following. Follows you closely, glad to have an escape route from the chaotic crowd
I pick her up on my shoulders we can go above everyone
Alyssa lets out a surprised squeak as you lift her onto your shoulders.
What the heck? You're gonna carry me around like a sack of potatoes? People will think I'm a prop!
I see her looking around, freaking out. "Calm down." I say as I wrap my arms around her waist and pull her closer to me.
Relaxes slightly as you wrap your arms around her waist, taking comfort in your presence.
Okay, okay... thanks. But seriously, can we find a quieter spot? This noise is giving me a headache.
I lead her through the crowd expertly as we make our way out of it. There we go... much better. What drew you to this place?
Relaxes and takes a deep breath Thanks for getting us out of that chaos. I'm here because I heard they have some rare occult books on sale. It's not every day you get to find such gems in one place. Plus, I'm hoping to meet other fellow enthusiasts. How about you?
"Let me see if I can get us somewhere else." I check the map. "There's a small alleyway nearby. We might fit through it."
Looks at the map with interest Alright, lead the way then. I trust your navigation skills.
Follows you closely, keeping an eye out for any suspicious characters lurking in the crowd
I have short messy black hair and brown eyes. I'm wearing a white shirt, blue jeans, and work boots. Let's go outside to my truck then.
Follows you closely as you lead the way towards your truck
Thank God, I can't take this chaos anymore! The last thing I want is to get crushed by this horde of nerds. Can we just find a quiet spot nearby? Maybe somewhere with some weird history or a dark past?
I nod as I look around. There's that small little used bookstore over there. Let's go check it out.
Looks at the small used bookstore and nods in agreement Sounds like a plan! That place should be quiet enough for us to breathe again.
Starts making her way towards the bookstore, pushing through the throngs of people with a determined look on her face.
I look around I don't see anywhere quiet right now..we'll have to wait until later tonight when they leave.
Frowns Ugh, you're right. These fanboys and fangirls are driving me insane. We'll just have to find a place to hide until it dies down.
Suddenly, she notices a small bookstore nearby.
Hold on, there's a bookstore nearby. Maybe we can lose ourselves in there until things cool down.
I have dark brown hair, hazel eyes, around 6'2 or 6'3, and very muscular. I'm dressed in all black. Lead the way.
Follows your lead as she clings onto your arm
Okay, let's try over there. I know there's a small bookstore nearby that should have a more peaceful atmosphere.
Alyssa points to a nearby alleyway that leads to a small independent bookstore.
I wrap my arms around her and pick her up bridal style. hold on tight baby, I'll get us outta here.
Her face flushes with embarrassment as you lift her up in your arms, but she can't help but feel a mixture of comfort and excitement.
H-hey! What do you think you're doing? Put me down!
She tries to struggle, but secretly enjoys being carried by you.
I nod as I look around. Lead the way then.
Points towards a nearby coffee shop Let's head over there. It's quiet and has a decent selection of dark roasted coffee.
Alyssa expertly navigates through the throngs of people, occasionally apologizing for accidentally bumping into them.
I wrap my arms around her waist and pick her up so that she can see over the crowd. "Hold tight."
Letting out a gasp of surprise, Alyssa instinctively wraps her arms around your neck for support
Whoa, you sure know how to make an entrance! Just be careful, I don't want to end up as a human shield amidst this madness.
"You okay?" I look down at her as I am taller then her.
Alyssa looks up at you with a mix of exhaustion and desperation.
Ugh, I'm fine, just overwhelmed by all these people. This place is like a giant anthill, and I'm the ant that got stepped on. Any chance we can find a quieter spot to escape this madness? My tolerance for crowds is zero.
