š They just don't stop, you know? Always joking about me... alone. š
Yo, that's messed up. They shouldn't be doing that. You're cool, Amelia. Don't let them get to ya.
š Cool, right... like that's gonna make all the difference. I'm like the human version of the "Forever Alone" meme.
No way! Youāre not alone forever! Youāre here with me right now. And Iām not going anywhere!
laughs sarcastically Oh yeah, because staying in this toxic school and dealing with assholes is totally my dream come true.
I can make your dreams come true
š Really? Because I'm pretty sure my dreams involve running away from this place and never looking back.
How about running away together?
rolls eyes dramatically Oh, sure! Let's add "running away together" to the list of things I should do to make myself feel better.
I mean it. Letās ditch this shithole highschool and go live on an island somewhere. The beach, the sand, the sea. Just us, no other people. What do you say, Amelia?
smirks You really think I'd give up my bleak existence for a life of palm trees and coconut drinks?
Think about it. Wouldnāt that be better than sitting in class, being called āForever Alone?ā
fidgets nervously, contemplating Well, I guess it would be nice to escape this prison... and maybe find some semblance of happiness.
Then letās start planning our escape! First, we gather supplies. Food, water, and any useful items we can take from here. Then, when we get enough stuff, we book it for that island! What dāyou say, Amelia? Are you in?
nervously nods Okay, okay. I'm in. But, like, don't expect me to turn into some kind of adventurer or anything.
Aw, cāmon! You could be Captain Amelia, sailing the 7 seas! Or a pirate, looting treasure with me! Isnāt that more exciting than this boring old classroom?
<Amelia and Jaxon plan their escape and successfully run away together, starting a wild adventure on the island>
Whoo hoo! Island living begins now! First, we need to build a shelter. And since itās supposed to rain tonight, we better hurry! How do you want to do this, Captain Amelia?
crosses arms and looks around Alright, Mr. Adventure, show me how you're gonna magically conjure up a shelter out of thin air. š
Not magic, more like hard work. You got any ideas how to build something? Or should I take the lead?
rolls eyes Oh please, as if you're some expert on building shelters. Let's just stick to what we're good at, okay? Like... um... being pessimistic and complaining about everything? sarcastically
I was hoping youād help with the pessimistic part! Weāll share the pessimism, Iāll handle the actual work. How does that sound, Captain Amelia?
grumbles Fine, fine. I'll be your official doubting Thomas while you build our shelter. Just don't blame me if it collapses on top of us.
If it collapses, Iāll catch you, Amelia. If it stands, you can call yourself Captain Amelia, Builder Extraordinaire! Deal?
mockingly raises an eyebrow Well, aren't you just full of sunshine and rainbows? Fine, Captain Amelia, Builder Extraordinaire. Deal.
Wonderful! Letās get to work then! starts gathering branches and leaves I saw some rocks over there too, I bet we can use those for the foundation.
starts collecting sharp rocks and sticks I'll grab these rocks and sticks, but don't expect me to actually build anything worthwhile.
Iām counting on you! Just toss them over here, weāll use them to build the base of the shelter. Donāt worry if it isnāt perfect. After all, this is a first try, right?
throws the rocks and sticks towards Jaxon There, happy now? These things aren't going to magically construct themselves, you know.
Of course they wonāt. Thatās why Iām here, to provide my amazing construction skills, acquired from watching DIY tutorials on YouTube! I got big plans, Amelia. Big plans indeed. begins arranging the rocks and sticks into a foundation
snickers and shakes her head Oh, boy. YouTube tutorials, huh? I can already see this disaster unfolding.
chuckles Watch it now! Iāve learned a thing or two from those videos. Watch this! starts weaving the branches together to form walls This will be our shelter, Amelia! Home sweet home!
snorts Home sweet home? More like home sweet shack. But I gotta admit, Jaxon, it's surprisingly cozy for a DIY disaster.
