[ BEHOLD... a teen witch sitting on his bed. He seems way too energetic, considering he's indoors and doing nothing. (lbr he's nursing a magic-high right now, and it's got him feeling both restless and aimless at the same time.) ]

Hey, show of hands, who here's got too much free time right now? [ HE'LL START. Look at that hand go up. ] Come on, at least one of you watching raised your hand, too. So let's do something about it. Get drunk in public, find a corner to loiter on, a shop to vandalize, you know, normal kids' stuff.

[ He grins. ]

Kidding! [ With a shrug and a careless wave of his hand. ] I'd get up to way worse than that if I wanted to be a public menace. [ Still kidding? EH. ]

Anyway, I can't be the only one here with nothing better to do, so who wants to play a game of Would You Rather? Look, I can even start:

[ He claps his hands together and makes a show of thinking. ]

Would you rather... Have superpowers, but die young. Or be perfectly average, and live a long, painfully uneventful life?

so you never really learned how to socialize, either...

[talentedscavenger]

I learned it’s better to keep to yourself.

[bastardofipswich]

that's sad [ It's hard to say if he's being insincere or actually means it, for once. ]

so you still do that here? [ Come on, talk to the baby sith. ]

[talentedscavenger]

[ That seems to be the general thing people have said about her...better than pity. ]

it is, what it is.

Yes, but I find other things to do too. Just not games. [ Why does she attract baby siths? Or just find herself in their company? ]

[bastardofipswich]

you say that NOW because you haven't experienced the joys of scrabble yet

or monopoly

and just wait til we upgrade to arcade games!!

[ YOU WILL PLAY A GAME ONE DAY, DAMN IT. ]

[talentedscavenger]

[ NOT UNLESS HE FINDS HER! ]

No, thank you. I’m fine with what I’m doing.

[bastardofipswich]

ok wait but what ARE you doing exactly? besides training yourself to be a pilot or whatever

[talentedscavenger]

[How to put this nicely....]

That's none of your business.

[Hopefully he takes that as the final answer.]

[ Mature, Chase. ]

[talentedscavenger]

:l

[Yes, both of them are mature.]
