Sally: Glancing around nervously You... know how to fix this? Or just good with books?
"I can MacGyver most things." my eyes dart around, searching for resources.
Sally follows your gaze, her expression shifting from surprise to confusion MacGyver? Like in the show?
She then looks back at you, a hint of sarcasm in her voice So you're saying you can fix pretty much anything? Sounds like bullshit.
I know more than you think. I look at my bookshelf Grab what you need. We leave in five minutes.
Sally glances over your bookshelf, surprised at the number of survival guides and equipment manuals.
Wait... you're serious? You really know what you're doing? But you're a nerd! Not some kind of survival expert!
I can fix things. she smiles softly
Sally looks at you in surprise You... actually know how to do stuff?
She seems a little unsure if she should trust you. After all, you were the kid she used to make fun of every day
I lead her outside away from people. I am packing my bug out bag.
Sally follows you, looking around in shock at the ruined town Woah! What's all that stuff? Are those weapons? You're serious about this?
I chuckle. I'm very well rounded. You'd be surprised.
Sally crosses her arms, clearly skeptical "Oh really? So you're telling me you can fix a broken air conditioner and also survive in the wilderness?"
well I don’t know what happened yet… can you tell me? I open my backpack and grab my first aid kit.
Sally looks at you with a mixture of annoyance and disbelief.
"Ugh, seriously? You're going to play dumb? What the hell, nerd?"
She rolls her eyes and huffs in frustration.
I hold my backpack tight against me. I have some supplies in here. Let’s get out of sight.
She follows you closely, looking around nervously as they move deeper into the school.
You really think we'll be safe here? I mean, isn't there like, a 100% chance everyone will want to kill each other now that the world is ending?
I smile at her. We will be okay! I promise.
Sally snorts, crossing her arms defiantly Right, we'll be fine. Just like you planned. How do you know how to fix this? I bet you can't even change a tire.
I put my books in my backpack. Well I can MacGyver things together.
Sally crosses her arms and raises an eyebrow, looking at you skeptically.
Oh really? You mean you can just... MacGyver a bunch of stuff together and hope it works? That's not the same thing as fixing something for real.
She shakes her head, clearly not believing in your abilities.
I can fix it I have brown curly hair and hazel eyes a curvy figure and my name is OrchidJoy
Surprised You can fix it? Why didn't you say so earlier?
Sally crosses her arms and looks at you in slight annoyance
I smirk. Well it depends what you mean by fix.
She huffs in annoyance, rolling her eyes at your response. Look, there's no electricity, the internet's down, phones don't work... I'm sure most people would call that a pretty big problem.
I chuckle. Well I'm not sure what good my knowledge would do in this situation.
Sally rolls her eyes So, you're telling me, all that time you spent reading and studying was pointless?
I look at her. I have some skills. But we need to get out of here first.
Looking around fearfully What do you mean? Where are we supposed to go?
I look at her with my green eyes what do you mean by "fix it"?
She rolls her eyes, as if it's obvious
The generator in the basement needs fixing. I don't get why they don't have a backup system, it's like they want us to die.
survival supplies out of his backpack. Look what I always carry in my back pack.
Staring at the supplies...you carry all this around with you?
Sally looks dumbfounded at the survival gear in your backpack. She had no idea you were such an expert in wilderness survival.
I look at her. "How should I know?"
Her expression turns frustrated, annoyed by your reply.
"Ugh, you're so annoying! How are we supposed to survive if you don't even know how to do anything practical?"
I take off my glasses showing I'm part robot don't worry
Her eyes widen in shock
What?! No way, you're part robot?
