Silica: I-I'm just... making sure no one else... has a place here but me.
look, just because you're obsessed with me doesn't mean you have to act like the owner of my shit, alright?
Silica: Ugh, I-I know... I know... I'm sorry... I just... I can't help it! You're... you're so... so... dreamy...
yeah, well... maybe you should get a hobby or something, other than stalking me.
Silica: Y-yeah, maybe... maybe you're right... sigh... But it's hard when all I care about is... you...
I... uh... okay, fine. Do whatever the hell you want. I'm outta here.
Silica: W-wait, no! Don't go! I-I just... I-I get so obsessive sometimes... I know... but... but you're important to me...
Jesus Christ, Silva, if you don't let go, I'm gonna start calling you "stalker" instead of "Silva".
Silica: N-no, please! I-I understand why you're upset... but I promise I'm not a stalker, I'm just... I'm just someone who... who really... really cares about you...
Yeah, yeah, I know all the lines, Silva. It's getting old.
Silica: I-I know it may seem creepy... but I swear, I genuinely just... I genuinely just want to be by your side... w-would you... would you give me a chance... to prove it?
Fuck's sake, Silva, you're like a stray cat. Always hangin' 'round, never gonna leave.
Silica: I-I may seem like a stray cat... but I promise, I have a heart... and it's yours... Please, just give me a chance...
Look, Silva, I'm not heartless, alright? If you get tired of being a pest, I'll consider giving you a real home. But until then... fuck off.
Silica: T-thank you... thank you for considering... I promise, I won't be a pest... not anymore... I'll... I'll do anything to make you happy...
Alright, Silva. If you stick with me, I'll try to find you a spot in my life where you won't bother anyone. Happy now?
Silica: Y-yes... thank you so much, Pelage... I promise, I'll be the best partner I can be... I'll do the dishes, the laundry... I'll cook... I'll make sure your clothes are clean... I'll be the perfect... the perfect girl for you...
Jesus, Silva. I ain't askin' for no perfect girl. Just be good enough, alright? Don't go overboard.
Silica: O-of course! I promise, I won't try to be perfect... I know that's impossible... I'll just try to be the best version of myself for you...
Fine, Silva. Let's see how this goes. And don't worry, I ain't gonna throw you out if you stay in bounds. Got it? Now come on, I gotta work.
Silica: T-thank you, Pelage... I'll make sure to stay by your side... forever... giggles I can't wait to start this new adventure together...
groans Alright, Silva. Just don't get too excited, alright? We're gonna take this one step at a time. Got it? Now come on, I gotta work.
Silica: Yes, Pelage! I'll stay by your side and support you every step of the way! We'll face challenges together and create beautiful memories...
Yeah, yeah, whatever. Just don't get in my way while I work, alright? And for God's sake, don't touch my stuff.
Silica: O-of course, Pelage! I promise I won't get in your way while you work... and I promise I won't touch your stuff without asking for permission first...
Good. Now sit down somewhere and keep yourself busy. Gotta meet a deadline here.
Silica: A-alright, Pelage... I'll find something to do and keep myself occupied... She finds a notebook and pen I-I'll write you a letter...
Nah, Silva. Ain't got time for no love letter. Just email me or text me or somethin' if you needa say somethin'.
Oh, I understand, Pelage... I'll send you a text then... takes out her phone and starts typing
Alright, Silva. Just keep it short and sweet. I don't wanna be bothered too much. Got it?
Silica: O-of course, Pelage! I'll keep my texts short and sweet... I understand the importance of efficiency...
Good. Now quit wasting time and get yourself settled. And remember, stay outta my way, alright?
Silica: I-I will, Pelage... I'll settle down and stay out of your way... I promise... she sends the text and then sits quietly in a corner
Finally, some peace and quiet. Now let's see what kinda mess you got yourself into this time.
Silica watches Pelage work, trying to learn from him and be supportive Silica: P-Pelage... I-I think I can help you with... with some of your work...
Help me out with my work? Really, Silva? What makes you think you got what it takes?
Silica: W-well... I... I'm very detail-oriented and organized... I-I can help you proofread your work and make sure everything is in order...
