You can find some scruffian stooping at your place of work if you work in a supernaturally themed business. This includes SAI or OOPARTS, but isn't limited to that. He can also be found in the DA or local library, pouring over newspaper articles and history books.

He seems like he's trying to make conversation, but is waaaaay too awkward to know how to approach something.

"I think so. If I can do it solo, who knows what someone with actual ideas of how this stuff works can do.

I mean, what're the other options? Let two people merge into one? Let someone think they're going crazy and reality might eat them?"

[windsbygone]

Well, I mean... What if those are usually the only options? Then what?

[maximumogredrive]

"We just gotta make them the lame options no one wants to pick!

Or... I dunno, man. I just don't want people getting hurt or fading away is all."

[windsbygone]

Yeah, it's... awkward, but I guess I can figure why it usually happens, at least. Even if it sucks.

[maximumogredrive]

"I guess..."

He rubs at his face.

"What about you, Soran? What's been up with you? Beating the ladies and men off with a windy stick?"

[windsbygone]

Actually, no.

Since the only girl who actively tries to jump me is Trena, and she's been bizarrely quiet, recently.

[maximumogredrive]

"... it's the small mercies in life that make it worth it, huh?"

[windsbygone]

You say that, but it actually worries me a little.

One might say "no news is good news", but with Trena, it means "what horror is she inflicting on what place without my knowledge"?

[maximumogredrive]

"... is that your way of saying ya miss her and are a little worried?"

[windsbygone]

Of course not. *yes, absolutely.*

[maximumogredrive]

"If I catch her, I'll immediately let her know ya miss her.

I'm sure she's thinking about you too."

[windsbygone]

That definitely isn't something you have to do!

*yes, it absolutely is.*

[maximumogredrive]

"You ain't gonna do it yourself, so someone's gotta! Ya can thank me later, bud."

[windsbygone]

I'm not thanking you for anything, if you say even a single word!

[maximumogredrive]

He's already texting on his phone.

"You're welcome in advance! She hasn't been badgering me about our boss rush I have no want to do either, so I'm taking a bullet here too in the name of justice."

[windsbygone]

Agghhgh stop it, stop it, I don't want to be jumped! *trying to grab the phone.

he's tiny compared to you.*

[maximumogredrive]

"Sorry!"

You can see the text as he holds you back with one arm. 'Soran misses you, he's currently in the library.'

"You just need to be more honest about your feelings!"

[windsbygone]

*letting out a frustrated sound.

He gets up, and starts running.*
