Hello everyone!
I know that this month has been making everyone pretty anxious with everything that's going on.
This is really the first time I'm experiencing the brunt of all of this, so it's been a... let's say, learning experience!
I've been trying to think of a way to get my mind off of all of this, so can I ask a favor of you?

Can you please tell me some of your favorite scary stories? I want to hear your best! （*/∇＼*）

You said she was a little cold, right?
But you must like her, don't you?

...Indeed. I think, I must have.

I'm sure she must have felt the same way too.
You're really nice.

What? No. No I am not. How did you somehow manage to get THAT impression of me?

Well, you've been nice to met since we started talking.
So I got that impression because you gave it to me.

...What? I have? Well, that's... just a lapse in my judgment! I really don't care about this all whatsoever.

[Yeah sure that tactic will totally work now Maggie.]

Is that so? That's a shame.

I do community service, and one of my favorite things to do is go and read stories to kids.
I think that they would have a lot of fun with you.

Well, duly noted. I mean... this is not the first time I have been told I'm good with kids but I still don't see it.

Also, community service? Did you commit a crime?

I thought we've already went over my crimes against humanity.

It'll be good to give it a try at least once though.

I am not going to let a child force me into things, thank you.

...I might try it though, if I get bored enough.

It'll be a different experience, at least.
And those are always interesting.

Indeed. Don't get your hopes up this will be successful at anything but annoying me, however.

Please feel free to tell me, "I told you so," if that is the case.

Oh believe me, I will. That's like the only reason to do this.

Hmmm
I do appreciate your honesty! :)

Honesty is the best policy, they say. Though it's not really my policy.

So, what is your usual policy then, if you don't mind me asking?

Mostly just screwing around. Like I've been doing this whole time.

Ah, were you?
I hadn't noticed.

I mix it up a little. Sometimes I'm genuine, other times I'm not, makes it harder to tell. Other times I act like I'm genuine when I'm really not, and vice versa. Can't let you be figuring me out that quickly.

A woman of many mysteries then.

It doesn't get boring?

Nope. Behaving normally is way more boring. Where's the intrigue in that?

But if you always act in that way won't people get used to it?

Yep. And that's why you change the act up a little once people can predict it!

It's a simple formula, really.

It sounds like you have put a lot of thought into this!
