1: W-we were just talking to each other, I promise...! DDD,x; W-we didn't even look at you!
2: *Is afraid to even move, thinking that NF is crazy and that the littlest thing could set her off again* ,émè;;;
Sweet: Ohmigosh, what a misunderstandinggggg!! DDDDDx; You've gotta forgive her for thinking the worst; she's been picked on sooooo much!

NativeFat: Yeah... Please don't be afraid! é~è; Again, I'm SUPER-sorry; I didn't mean to upset you... Dx;

1: OK... *Backs away a bit more* ... *Suddenly tugs on 2's arm* C'mon; let' get outta here! e~e;
2: O-O-OK... ,O~O;
(*They both scurry away without another word, still clearly unsettled*)

NativeFat: *Watches them leave, looking extremely regretful* ,é-è; Urgh... I can't believe it; I made MORE people cry, and this time they weren't even picking on me! I feel terrible...! D'x;

Sweet: *Is, in all honestly, a little stunned, confused, and shocked* Th-that was... um... o-o;; ... W-what exactly did they do, again, to make you... ... ...?

NativeFat: They were just walking by and laughing, totally minding their own business... Dx; I didn't see them 'cause I was busy looking through the window, so I just ended up assuming they were laughing at me! /)-(\;

Sweet: Ohhhhhhh... o~o; ... You REALLY scared them, too. I think one of 'em was kinda petrified! O.O;;

NativeFat: I knowww! /).(\;; I felt so bad when I saw how afraid they were; I shouldn't have gotten so defensive so quickly...!

Sweet: Awwww! 3x; I... um... ... ... That was kinda... um... ... *Isn't sure how to agree that NF's response was maybe a little much without hurting her feelings* *Shuffles awkwardly*

NativeFat: *Sad sigh* I'm sorry for causing so much trouble... ,<.>; I've been way too super-sensitive, today...

Sweet: No, it's OK! Ó.Ò; It's kinda all the mean kids' fault for picking on you so much, too! If they weren't always so miserable, you wouldn't be so on-edge! 3x; ... So, do you wanna keep exploring??

NativeFat: Sure... There's not much of a point in just staying in here. <.>;

Sweet: OK, c'mon; you'll feel all better once we get going! ó.ò; *Scurries ahead*

NativeFat: *Slowly pootles after Sweet* ó-ò; *Looks at all of their surroundings, trying to take her mind off of things*

Sweet: *Encounters a tunnel in the wall of a room* o.o! *Loooooooks inside* ... Heeeyyyy, it's the big twisty tunnel! OwO *Looks back at NF* Wanna explore it without getting lost this time?? We can make up for last time! ÓwÒ

NativeFat: *Briefly looks worried* o~ò ... *Shakes it off* O-OK~ óvò;

Sweet: Yay~! >w<; This should cheer you up for SURE! C'mon~! *Slips into the tunnel and starts scurrying along*

NativeFat: owò; *Carefully slips in after Sweet* *Inches along, trying very hard to keep up with her*

Sweet: *Stops when she gets to a branch, definitely not wanting to leave NF behind this time* *Turns around and waits for her* owo♪

NativeFat: *Slowly catches up with Sweet* Which way, this time...? ovò

Sweet: *Turns around again* Hmmmmmmm~ owo ... *Picks one at random* This one!! nヮn *Scurries*

NativeFat: OK~ >v< *Tries to follow, but has apparently gotten stuck* Er, g-gimme a sec... n~n;; *Tries to squirm free*

Sweet: o.o! *Turns around and goes to help* Lemme help! nwn; *PUUUUUULLLLLSSSSS* >~<;;;;

NativeFat: *Comes free after a few moments* o.o;! ... Thanks. n3n;;; I was kinda worried that that would be harder than it was...

Sweet: No probs~! >w< *Turns around and keeps going ahead*
