Sélicité: fidgeting nervously I-I guess w-we're supposed to...you know...m-marry here. clutches cloak
yeah but.. I don’t see your ring.
fidgeting more W-w-well, uh, I-I lost it... I-I was looking for it... looks around
yeah? Your parents came to get you right?
nervously Y-yeah, they're here. But um, I didn't want to... get married, you know? It's just...
stuttering Y-y-yeah, I... I mean, I understand that... But... takes a deep breath but maybe we could... um, find a way out of this...
anxiously W-w-we could... maybe, uh, run away... together? We could find somewhere far away from here, where n-no one knows us.
well I did tell my parents I wanted to do something different. And I think it’s best not to tell them the truth.
quickly Y-yeah, I-I get that. They can be so... traditional sometimes. I-I mean, we're just too young for all that, right?
well, I’d have to tell them we ran off together. But yeah, I understand. What do we do?
frantically pacing W-w-we need to figure something out. Maybe... maybe we can steal some money, enough to start a new life...
stops pacing, looks at Harrison W-w-why not? I-I mean, we're desperate, right? And it's not like they'd notice... maybe we could find a way to... y-y-you know, swipe some cash.
Harrison reluctantly agrees to the plan and they start plotting their next move together.
whispers O-Okay, so... I-I have this idea. There's a wealthy old man who lives in a mansion nearby. He's quite eccentric, keeps a lot of cash hidden in his study.
And how do we get into this mansion?
leans in closer, whispers Well, I... I've seen him leave his front door unlocked. So, we might be able to sneak in quietly.
nods, determined Okay, we'll need to wait until midnight when he's asleep. Then we'll go in, quiet as mice, and look for that study. Got it?
nods, pacing anxiously A-And uh, we should probably wear something dark, like black clothes, t-to blend into the shadows.
Yeah. Do you know how to pick locks?
pauses, sheepishly Um... no, I don't actually. But I can try my hand at breaking the lock, or maybe we could... pick the lock? Do you know how to do it, Harrison?
grabs Harrison's arm Oh, thank goodness! Alright, let's practice on my old lock here. Watch closely.
smiles Show me what you want me to do.
takes out a set of lockpicks Okay, so basically, you just gotta... manipulate these pins to match the keyhole's grooves.
I pick the lock with ease.
eagerly H-Harrison! You're a natural! Quick, quick, try it on the door!
