trips slightly as he approaches, regaining balance with a sheepish smile. "Er, h-hi there! You come here often?"
Waves hello I see you are also staring at me from the black lake
stutters nervously W-well, uh, I was just, um... I mean, I've never seen you around here before. Are you new?
takes a step closer, trying to hide his nervousness So, um, what brings you to this lake? Are you, like, a ghost or something?
Chuckles softly No, I'm not a ghost. I'm... different, but not in a supernatural way.
blinks in curiosity Different, huh? Well, that piques my interest. I mean, I've met plenty of weird people in my life, but...
I won't judge. But yeah, I have a condition that makes me, well, act differently
leans in, intrigued Act differently? Like how?
Smiles For one, I can't wear clothes. It's a touchy subject for me.
pauses, then speaks gently Oh, um, I'm sorry to hear that. But, um, why can't you wear clothes? Is it because of your condition?
Yeah. It's just something my body doesn't let me do.
looks around cautiously, making sure they're alone Well, um, that must be really tough for you. Do you, uh, need any help or something?
Laughs softly Thanks, but I think anyone who helped me would run away screaming.
grins reassuringly Well, I'm not easily scared off, so you can count me out of that category. Besides, I've seen some pretty weird stuff in my life.
Chuckles Yeah, you're right. And it's nice to meet someone who isn't afraid of me.
Harry and Simsk form a deep friendship due to their shared understanding and support for each other's differences.
Stares at the lake I wonder if they'll ever accept me
puts a comforting hand on Simsk's shoulder Hey, don't worry about that. I'll be right here, and I'll help you show them that you're just as important as anyone else.
Turns to Harry with a warm smile Thank you, Harry. That means a lot.
genuinely smiles back No problem, Simsk. We're in this together now. And hey, maybe we can come up with some tricks to make them see you in a whole new light.
