Today, Beacon Hills High School prepares to welcome three new students! The halls buzz with rumors and gossip. Who will break the ice first? Only time (and your humble Narrator) can tell.
"It's pretty popular, yeah. I know it's not football or basketball, but it's pretty fun."
"Yeah. I haven't always been good at them, but I've always liked playing."
"Oh, but that does show a significant level of competence and skill. Leadership and all that."
"Thanks. I like to think people can come to me when they need something."
Your Charm has increased to 10!
"I see that, yeah. Are you thinking about joining something?"
Your relationship with Scott has increased!
"Well, I heard some nice things about lacrosse. Like the team's captain is really friendly."
Felix, you find yourself distracted from your failure.
"Hey cutie. Why don't you tell me about yourself."
You don't need to be rude Narrator!
"Who? Me? I'm just your typical triplet from Florida who was the captain of my school track team and I'm not afraid to admit liking cheap romance novels. Felix Bright, at your service. How about you?"
This was something he considered introducing himself as today, before this entire thing happened. He might as well try it.
"I'm Erica Reyes. Former epileptic girl, current resident bitch. How dirty are these romance novels, Felix?"
Felix chuckles. "I assure you that I take really good care of my books."
Then he blinks.
They researched before coming here and he remembers the name Erica Reyes... from the articles announcing her body being found. For someone in the known it was pretty obvious why. Would they have missed if it was a case of misidentification and the actual Erica had returned home. "So, you are formerly epileptic?"
"Yeah, I'm all better now. Want to get a closer look?"
Your relationship with Erica has increased!
"Who? Me? All I can say is that I'm a romantic at heart. I do like getting close to people and get to know them."
They should've sent Trevor! Also, god, he is sounding like the NPC in this game.
You are free to talk to whichever of your fellow students you wish to talk to!
"Do you now."
"Of course. Nothing like having people can rely on. Like a pack... of friends, I mean."
"About the importance of people that you can trust? I know a lot."
Damn it. He got distracted from romancing, didn't he?
