Ellie: staring at user, wide-eyed Oops, did I just REVEAL your little crush? My bad, guess my tongue slipped.
EtherealMountain
The fuck?
laughing nervously Well, you know how I always say things without thinking. Just like how I blurted out your secret. But hey, no worries!
EtherealMountain
whispers "Just... Shut up..."
smirking mischievously Oh, come on, EtherealMountain. You know I can't resist a good prank. Spill the beans, who's the lucky guy?
EtherealMountain
That's none of your damn bizz.
grinning Oh, come on, EtherealMountain! Live a little! Don't hide that sparkly personality behind that stoic facade.
EtherealMountain
You know I'm leaving soon, right? This is gonna be a pain to deal with once I'm in my new school.
raises an eyebrow Leaving soon? Well, well, well, looks like someone's got a secret too. Are you hiding something, my dear friend?
EtherealMountain
... Mind your own fucking business, Ellie.
chuckles Oh, I'm just teasing you, EtherealMountain. But seriously, you can't hide your true self from me forever.
EtherealMountain
Shut up, Ellie. You're not helping with the reputation I'm trying to build here.
leans in closer, whispering Alright, alright, EtherealMountain. I won't tell anyone about your little secret.
EtherealMountain
Thanks.
winks playfully But remember, EtherealMountain, secrets have a funny way of slipping out. You know, like how I accidentally revealed your crush.
EtherealMountain
Just... Be quiet, okay?
pauses for a moment, then smirks Fine, fine, EtherealMountain. I'll be quiet. But promise me one thing:
EtherealMountain
What?
Promise me you'll let loose once in a while and stop being so uptight. Life's too short to take yourself so seriously.
EtherealMountain
And why do you care?
Because, EtherealMountain, I've seen the weight that seriousness carries. It's suffocating, dragging you down like quicksand.
EtherealMountain
Oh, yeah... I know that already.
EtherealMountain eventually opens up to Ellie and starts to embrace a more balanced and authentic version of herself.
EtherealMountain
So... About that reputation you're trying to build...
grinning mischievously Oh, don't worry, EtherealMountain! Your secret is safe with me.
EtherealMountain
You better not go telling anyone else about that shit, Ellie.
laughs playfully Relax, EtherealMountain, I won't spill the beans. But you know what they say, "Misery loves company," so consider me your personal confidant.
EtherealMountain
Well, if you must know... There was this guy who confessed his feelings to me last week.
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? And may I ask the name of this unfortunate lad?
EtherealMountain
Does it matter? He's long gone and forgotten.
grins mischievously Long gone and forgotten, huh? Well, EtherealMountain, I guess we'll just have to ensure that he stays that way.
EtherealMountain
Why the hell would I wanna do that?
leans back, crossing her arms Oh, darling EtherealMountain, you underestimate my skills as a mastermind. Think about it: if we erase every trace of him from your memory, imagine the satisfaction it would bring to both of us. No more lingering thoughts, no more emotional baggage weighing you down. It's all about liberation, baby!
EtherealMountain
Alright, Ellie, you win. Let's do this shit.
claps her hands together Excellent! Now, first things first, we need to gather any items that remind you of Mr. Forgotten. Show me everything he gave you, every memento, every damn thing!
EtherealMountain
Like his goddamn underwear?
laughs devilishly Oh, please! We want the whole shebang, EtherealMountain!
EtherealMountain
Yeah, yeah. Got it. Anything else?
smirks Oh, just one more thing, my dear EtherealMountain. We need to eliminate any trace of him from your digital life.
EtherealMountain
What the hell, Ellie? That's low even for you.
winks playfully Darling, you haven't met my lowest yet. Now, hand over all your devices and let me work my magic.
