call me out v. 11.0

[misheard]

Call out one of the characters from my muselist with a starter, a prompt, a general 'hey can we do something with these characters' comment, a smoke signal, etc., and I'll get back to you with some kind of RP thread!

[Mrs. Blackmore seems to, at least, since her expression softens a little.]

Very good.

[It's only after the librarian has returned to her desk that Shinji dares speak to Alice again, much more quietly.]

...It's still not just your chair. It's everybody's chair.

[forestoftulgey]

[It wasn't something Alice liked to pull out but at least Mrs. Blackmoore is gone. She wasn't so bad but Alice didn't want her to tell her husband about them. ....Mr. Blackmoore was scary.]

Still, you shouldn't play video games in a library. We have a project to do.

[spirithacker]

[Mr. Blackmore could strike fear into the heart of any eight-year-old.]

I'm already done.

[forestoftulgey]

[You could say he could knock them dead.]

Then will you move?

[spirithacker]

[uh rude

that's the protagonist's job]

Of course not.

[forestoftulgey]

[There's no protag here.]

Why? You're not playing a game now, though.

[spirithacker]

I would be if you hadn't started picking a fight with me.

[forestoftulgey]

I'll tell Sis you were picking on me.

['Sis' being Alice's twin Nursery Rhyme Dorothy. Who isn't in their class but is someone Shinji definitely knows.]

[spirithacker]

I'm not scared of your sister.

[He's a little scared of Alice's sister.]

[forestoftulgey]

Nuh-uh. You wouldn't say no to me if she was around.

[The two of them are a menace to boys his age.

...Lucky for him, though, she's not in the library right now.]

[spirithacker]

Would so.

[She's not actually going to go get her sister, so he's safe, right?]

[forestoftulgey]

You'd go crying like you always do.

[Prooobably not.]

[spirithacker]

I've never cried ever!

[Lies.]

[forestoftulgey]

Everyone knows you're a crybaby.

[spirithacker]

Everyone knows you're a liar!

[forestoftulgey]

I'm not a liar!

[spirithacker]

Are so!

[They're going to get kicked out of the library.]

[forestoftulgey]

Prove it!

[Judging by the way the librarian is watching them? Yes. Especially with how she's now phoning up her husband.]

[spirithacker]

'Cause you said I'm a crybaby!

[They have but minutes to live.]

[forestoftulgey]

Everyone knows that's true! Sis and everyone.

[On the other side of the library, the class goes quiet. Principle Dan Blackmoore has entered the room and he's unhappy. They have about a minute left to say their goodbyes.]

[spirithacker]

You're just making - is that the principal?

[It got weirdly quiet so he glanced that direction. Mistakes were made.]

[forestoftulgey]

Why is he here?!

[Oh no. They're going to die. Slowly, the large man walks towards them.]

Is there a problem over here?

[spirithacker]

N-no! No problems here!

[They're going to die and no one will find the bodies.]

[forestoftulgey]

[Hope you don't mind her hiding behind you, Shinji.]

That's not what I heard.

[....considering the stories everyone tells of Principle Blackmoore being an ex-sniper, that might be true.]

[spirithacker]

[Those stories have to be made up, right? There's no way their principal was a sniper.]

Wh-who'd start trouble in a library anyway? Ha... Ha...

[Still going to die, though.]
