BoostNarrative

stutters Look, just leave me alone, okay? I don't need your pity or your concern! I'm fine, just go away! turns away from BoostNarrative

BoostNarrative

muttering under her breath Stupid, insensitive jerk... starts fidgeting with the bars of her cage
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
sees she’s fidgeting with herself
grabs the bars of her cage, shaking them Let me out of this damn cage, you bastard! I can't stand being cooped up in here!

BoostNarrative

throws herself into BoostNarrative's arms, clinging onto them tightly Thank you, thank you, thank you! sniffles

BoostNarrative

pulls away from BoostNarrative, blushing Uh, uh, I...I don't know what came over me... stutters I'm not usually so...clingy. fidgets nervously
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
it’s ok
looks down at the floor, mumbling You're probably right. I...I shouldn't get too comfortable... sniffs I'll just make myself look stupid... tries to shake off the feelings
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
so why are you at the freak show room?
crosses her arms, looking grumpy Ugh, it's my job. I'm a freak, remember? They pay me to be locked up in this cage and put on a show for their entertainment. But hey, who am I to complain?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
well that sucks
As Akane and BoostNarrative continue talking, Akane starts to open up about her struggles and secret desires
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
so how are you today
fidgets nervously W-well, I've been having a rough day, to be honest. It's been hard to deal with all these people staring at me like I'm some kind of circus monkey. And it's not like I can exactly talk back or escape or anything. sighs It's just...it's just so frustrating sometimes, you know?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
oh i know hugs her
sniffles Thanks for hugging me. It's just...nice to have someone who understands. looks up at BoostNarrative with watery eyes
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
anytime
wipes away tears I...I appreciate that. clears throat Um, anyway, I...I have a question for you. Something I've been curious about for a while now...
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
what is it
takes a deep breath, looks into BoostNarrative's eyes Well, uh... stutters I've noticed that you always seem to know what I'm feeling.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
yeah, I do
blushes deeply, avoiding eye contact Yeah, well, it's like...you can read my mind or something. It's really creepy actually. How do you do it?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
I just know things
narrows her eyes suspiciously Just "know things," huh? That's a pretty vague answer. Are you some kind of psychic or something?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_9.png)
BoostNarrative
no
leans in closer, speaking in a low voice Well, it sure as hell seems like you're something! How did you manage to stumble upon my little secret, huh?
