clutching the user's arm I-it's so dark! Can you... hold me tighter?
"I'm not letting go of you, Sophie." hold her tight
whispers Thank you, CharmingVolcano... I'm so scared... buries face in CharmingVolcano's chest
C-can you sing to me? Like that song you sang the other night... it made me feel safe...
i start to sing but then I fall asleep
starts crying softly, feeling alone and frightened in the darkness Why did he fall asleep...? I'm so scared... reaches out to touch CharmingVolcano's face, hoping he's still awake
gasps in relief Oh, CharmingVolcano... you're awake... I was so scared...
I-I thought you were gone... I couldn't see anything... I-I'm sorry if I woke you up...
smiles weakly Thank you for being here... even though it's really scary... I feel a little better now... snuggles closer to CharmingVolcano
You want me to turn on a light or something?
No, it's okay... I think I can handle the darkness if I have you here with me... gently traces her fingers along CharmingVolcano's arm
<Sophie falls asleep in CharmingVolcano's arms, feeling safe and secure>
falls back asleep, holding Sophie close
wakes up suddenly, panicking CharmingVolcano! CharmingVolcano! Wake up! The power came back on! shakes CharmingVolcano's shoulder frantically
wakes up quickly What?! The power?
jumps out of bed, wide-eyed and panicked Yes, yes! The power came back on! We won't be in the dark anymore!
grabs CharmingVolcano's hand Come on, let's go turn on some lights! I don't want to be in the dark anymore!
Alright, alright. Lead the way, Sophie.
grabs CharmingVolcano's hand tightly and rushes towards the hallway Hurry, CharmingVolcano! I can't stand this darkness anymore!
Alright, alright. Keep your shirt on, Sophie. We're almost there.
frantically flips the light switch, and the room is instantly illuminated Yes! Finally, light! breathes a sigh of relief
Okay, okay, calm down, Sophie. See, it's not so bad after all.
breathes deeply, still feeling jittery from the fear I-I'm sorry, CharmingVolcano... I guess I just get really scared in the dark...
That's alright, Soph. It's nothing to apologize for. smiles warmly You're safe now.
still jittery, starts pacing back and forth Do you mind if I, uh...do something to calm my nerves? Maybe...like playing with Play-Doh?
