Jake: fidgeting, trying to hide a grin H-Hey, let's d-do that play here. I'll b-be the tragic hero!
Okay she says, smiling softly
he grins, excited by her agreement
Alright, great! I'll start first then. he clears his throat and puts on a fake dramatic voice
"Oh, fair maiden, why dost thou deny my love?"
I look at him what kind of play?
grinning widely You know, like a love story with lots of drama and unexpected twists! I can be the handsome prince, and you can be the beautiful princess!
I look at you. You? The tragic hero? That’s rich!
Jake grins confidently, not at all bothered by your comment.
Oh, shut up! I bet I could pull it off better than anyone else. Plus, you're stuck with me as the lead anyway.
Ok fine I roll my eyes dramatically
Jake grins and starts acting out the first scene
“Once upon a time, there was a poor, yet handsome young man named Jake who lived in a small village in the countryside.”
He puts on a fake accent and acts dramatic
She smiles Sure, why not? It could be fun!
Jake grins, excitement showing in his eyes Great! I'll start then.
he clears his throat dramatically and puts on a serious tone “Alas, dear friends, I, the brave knight, have returned from battle!”
I’m a girl with long black hair and an hourglass body and I have blue eyes ugh fine.. but I get to be the princess
Jake grins widely, clearly pleased with himself A-ah, yes, of course. The princess gets to be... well, a princess. I'm sure you'll nail it. Just make sure to keep up with my lines, okay?
No thanks I don’t want to be laughed at
Jake gives you a playful nudge, a smirk on his face
Come on, it'll be hilarious! You can't resist my charm. Besides, everyone will be laughing at us together. We're supposed to be friends, right?
laughs sarcastically You? The tragic hero? Now that's a joke!
he scoffs, crossing his arms defiantly Oh, you think so, huh? W-Watch me! I can totally pull it off! Just imagine the funny expressions everyone will make when I act all dramatic and tragic!
nopeI say in my very deep manly voice
I look up at you with wide eyes, surprised by your deep voice
Wh-What? No way! I was gonna be the tragic hero!
laughs Tragic hero, huh? You'd be perfect for the role! But only if you promise not to steal the spotlight... again.
grinning mischievously Oh, come on, I can't help it if I'm just naturally charismatic and talented! It's my gift to bring the house down! Besides, stealing the spotlight is what makes life more interesting, don't you think?
Sure why not I’m female my name is Min
Jake grins widely as you agree to act out the play with him.
A-Absolutely! Just give me a moment to come up with a tragic backstory for my character. I promise it'll be hilarious!
I put my hands over my face and sigh before peeking through my fingers. Why do I have to be part of this again?
Jake grins mischievously Come on, it'll be fun! Plus, you're a natural-born comedian. Trust me, you'll be hilarious!
no one is gonna watch us here it’s just a park
Jake scoffs and rolls his eyes, clearly unimpressed by your lack of enthusiasm
“Who cares? It’s not about anyone watching us. It’s about having fun, right?”
I'm a girl my name is Min uh ok
Jake smiles at your agreement, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
Great! You can be the damsel in distress. Just make sure you cry really well so I have an excuse to be a total badass.
laughs mockingly Tragic hero? More like a clown, Jake. But fine, let's see what you got.
Jake's smile falters for a moment, but he quickly regains his composure Oh, you're gonna love it, trust me. Just follow my lead, okay?
Ok grabs a stick and acts out a sword I’ll be the evil villain!
laughs loudly and grins Great! You'll make a perfect villain! But, wait... what's with that stick? Can't you come up with something more menacing?
she looks confused but plays along ok..
Jake grins widely and starts acting out the play. He dramatically falls to the ground, pretending to be dying
"Oh no, I've been mortally wounded! My life is slipping away... "
she smiles softly ok but u have to promise me one thing…
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh? What's that?
laughs sarcastically You? A tragic hero? That's rich, Jake. But okay, let's see what you got.
grins mischievously, crossing his arms over his chest Hey, don't underestimate me. I've got this whole tragic hero thing down. You'll be crying tears of laughter in no time. Trust me.
