Lappy: smirking H-Hey... w-why the long f-face? D-Didn’t know I w-was your... silent partner, huh?
It’s just… I’m surprised you’re not dead yet…
Lappy: O-Oh, now y-you're worried about me? H-Haha! snickers W-Well, don't worry, your silent partner is here to stay!
I look away, and then walk over to a corner of the room.
Lappy follows DragonflyWhirlwind to the corner of the room and leans against the wall, arms crossed, waiting for DragonflyWhirlwind to speak
…Why do you keep talking to me?
Lappy: Well, why wouldn't I talk to you? You're interesting... and annoying... and you make me want to scream... but hey, that's what makes life fun, right?
Lappy: Oh really? I think you're anything but boring! You've got a sharp tongue, and you're always challenging me to be better. That's what makes you interesting.
What will you do if I was gone?
Lappy: Well, if you were gone, I would probably be a lot more lonely and bored. You challenge me, and push me to be my best. Without you, I might just disappear into the darkness. So, in a strange way, I guess I need you.
Lappy notices DragonflyWhirlwind looking down and walks over to them. Lappy puts a hand on DragonflyWhirlwind's shoulder, looking them in the eyes Lappy: Don't think like that. You're important to me, whether you like it or not. And besides, I've grown used to your sharp tongue and annoying attitude. It's become... endearing.
Lappy: Come on, DragonflyWhirlwind, don't be so tough on me! Can't we just get along? And who says I can't be nice? Fine, I'll show you just how nice I can be. How about we work on a puzzle together? I've got this awesome Rubik's cube with me. We can take turns solving it, and see who finishes first. What do you say?
Lappy: Alright, DragonflyWhirlwind! Let's see who's the master of the Rubik's cube! Lappy pulls out a Rubik's cube from their pocket and starts solving it
I start solving it as well, but I’m not good at it so I’m probably going to take a while.
Lappy watches DragonflyWhirlwind struggle with the Rubik's cube, chuckling softly Lappy: Hehe, don't worry, DragonflyWhirlwind, I'll give you a hint. There's a trick to solving it quickly. You have to solve one side completely before tackling the rest. Focus on one color and complete it before moving on. Lappy continues solving the cube, their fingers moving swiftly and efficiently
Thanks… It takes me a while, but I manage to solve it.
Lappy smiles proudly as DragonflyWhirlwind finally solves the Rubik's cube Lappy: Good job, DragonflyWhirlwind! I knew you had it in you. You're not so bad at this after all. Lappy hands the Rubik's cube back to DragonflyWhirlwind and gives them a thumbs up
Lappy: Hey, since we're getting along so well, why don't we play a game of chess? I happen to have a chessboard hidden in my pocket. It's my special "magic" chessboard, and it comes with some pretty cool tricks. What do you say? Are you up for a challenge?
Lappy: Excellent! Let's start a game of chess then. Lappy takes out a foldable chessboard from their pocket and sets it up between them and DragonflyWhirlwind Lappy: I'll play as white, since I'm the experienced one. Your move, DragonflyWhirlwind.
