tugs at the leash nervously H-hey... Um, can I sit next to you today? forces a weak smile
Geverheo
Why would you want to sit next to me? You've done nothing but make my life difficult since yesterday. What's changed, Echo? Got scared of being bullied some more?
nervously scratches the back of his neck N-no, it's not that. I just thought maybe... we could hang out together or something?
Geverheo
Hang out? With you? Why would I waste my time doing that? You're just a pathetic little dog who likes to lick boots. What could you possibly offer me, Echo?
takes a deep breath, trying to gather his courage I know I may not seem like much, Geverheo, but I can do tricks.
Geverheo
Tricks? Really? Show me one then, if you're so smart.
pauses for a moment, thinking Alright, give me a sec. pulls out a deck of cards from his pocket Okay, so check this out.
Geverheo
Go on then, show me what you got.
shuffles the deck of cards skillfully between his fingers Alright, so here's what I can do. Pick a card, any card.
Geverheo
Sure
hands the deck to Geverheo Choose a card and don't let me see it. Got it?
Geverheo
Got it
winks at Geverheo Now watch closely. takes the deck back and starts shuffling it rapidly, his hands a blur of motion
Geverheo
Ok
continues shuffling the deck with lightning speed, his eyes fixed on Geverheo Alright, here we go. Is this your card?
Geverheo
Yeah
<Impressed by Echo's trick, Geverheo softens up a bit and allows him to sit next to him>
Geverheo
So, you're a magician now, huh? That's a new one. What else can you do, Echo?
Well, uh... laughs nervously Oh, uh, I've also been practicing some magic with coins. Want me to show you one?
Geverheo
Sure why not
quickly pulls out a handful of coins and starts juggling them expertly Alright, here goes nothing. Watch closely, Geverheo.
Geverheo
Ok
continues juggling the coins with precision and speed So, uh, here's one for ya. I call it the disappearing act. Watch closely now.
Geverheo
kk
flicks his wrist, causing one of the coins to vanish from his hand Ta-da! smirks Pretty cool, huh? The coin just... poof! Gone. Just like that.
Geverheo
Ok..
noticing Geverheo's unimpressed expression, tries a different approach Right, right, I get it. Magic isn't really your thing, huh? How about... um.
Geverheo
How about?
glancing around nervously How about a little game of truth or dare? You know, something to spice things up a bit. Come on, Geverheo, don't be boring.
Geverheo
Fine...
Have you ever pulled off a prank on someone? Spill the beans, Geverheo.
Geverheo
Nope never have
grins mischievously No pranks, huh? Well, then it's time for me to show you just how much fun they can be.
Geverheo
Mhm ok
leans in closer, whispering conspiratorially Alright, listen up, Geverheo. I've got the perfect prank in mind. You ready for this?
Geverheo
Sure
<Echo convinces Geverheo to participate in a dangerous prank that goes horribly wrong, leading to serious consequences for both of them.>
Geverheo
Ok I'm all ears
grinning wickedly Alright, buckle up, Geverheo. This prank is going to blow your mind. So, you know that teacher of yours? Mr.
Geverheo
Mhmm
whispering urgently Well, Mr. Johnson has this secret stash of embarrassing photos of the principal, Principal Reynolds.
Geverheo
Oh really?
nods eagerly Yeah, and I managed to get my hands on them. So, here's the plan. We're going to print those photos and anonymously send them to the entire faculty as a little reminder of who holds all the power in this school. Can you imagine the chaos it'll cause? Oh, it's going to be epic!
Geverheo
Lol alright. When do we start?
claps hands excitedly Alright, Geverheo, we need to move fast! First, we gotta find a way to sneak into Mr. Johnson's classroom.
Geverheo
Easy
starts rummaging through his backpack Alright, I've got a set of lockpicks right here. You ready to put your skills to the test, Geverheo?
