[There're a table and some chairs set up outside of the front entrance. Hurricane and Nemesis are seated there like those kids looking for passers-by to sign their petitions or sponsor animals. A modest sign in front says "Free Cheer"]

Buttpats! Get'cher buttpats here!

Pep talks, dude, don't give people the wrong idea.

It's not for us to say what motivates people. I mean, in this case it kind of literally is, but whatever.

Anyway, stop on by and gimme a couple of words. Whatever you pick, I’ll do the whole motivational speech thing about it.

And I swear to help out, or if there's something else you need, I guess. Either way, points.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Stuff with the newbies?

[nohalation]

Well . . . no . . .

[crossmyheartandhope]

Then what're you figuring out?

[nohalation]

I'm not sure if I should say it or not . . .

[crossmyheartandhope]

...you wanna talk about it?

[nohalation]

[tap tap tap fingers]

I don't know.

[crossmyheartandhope]

How come?

[nohalation]

I don't know how to talk about it . . .

[crossmyheartandhope]

Well, I mean. If you wanna talk about it, you just say what you want to say.

[nohalation]

It feels bad thinking about it . . . I tried challenging him to something, but I don't think I did it right so he got really angry. He asked if I was trying to manipulate him, but I wasn't!

[crossmyheartandhope]

Did you talk to him about it after?

[nohalation]

I haven't seen him . . . he probably had work to do.

[crossmyheartandhope]

That's why you're trying to find something he'll like, huh.

[nohalation]

Well, no, this was after that . . . I was just trying to find something nice cuz he's always doing nice things for me. Even after that terrible house, he tried cheering me up. He said he was fine, but . . . you know, he died, too.

Since he does a lot of work, I just wanted to show him a little thanks.

[crossmyheartandhope]

So you got him something nice and he thought you were trying to manipulate him...?

[nohalation]

I tried to challenge him like everyone suggested! Like "I can do this better than you can" so then we could maybe play it like a game!

But he didn't like it.

[balloon deflates]

I did say sorry though . .
