FA: "Hi... Ahmed..."
AP: "Hello there, Fee!"
FA: "How are, um... you doing?"
FA: "If... you don't mind me asking...?"
AP: "Of course not, ask away."
FA: "Oh... okay..."
FA: "So, um..."
FA: "How are... you doing?"
AP: "I'm doing well, if not actually accomplishing much. I'm afraid I've been too lazy to do much of anything lately..."
AP: "At least I have playing with you guys to look up to!"
FA: "Yeah..."
FA: "About that..."
FA: "I... have the, um..."
FA: "Server and... client... downloaded..."
AP: "Nice!"
FA: "I just..."
FA: "Don't really, um... know how it works..."
AP: "Oh! Is that all? I can give you a bit of the basics, but to be honest with you I don't know all that much either."
FA: "Yeah... shouldn't be... too hard, I guess.."
AP: "I've been looking for a guide for the game or something that will let me know more than the absolute basics but I haven't found anything yet."
AP: "Guess we'll have to figure it out ourselves ourselves, huh?"
FA: "I guess so..."
FA: "Anyways..."
FA: "How, um... is your boss doing?"
AP: "He's doing great! He might be an old man, but he's still alive and kicking with no signs of stopping anytime soon."
AP: "Guess that's magic for ya."
FA: "That's good... it's nice of him that, um..."
FA: "He's looking after you..."
AP: "Yeah that was pretty cool of that old bag of bones, pretty selfless, which was actually surprising once I got to know him."
AP: "Lets just say that there's a reason he has no spouse or offspring of his own, ok?"
FA: "Yeah..."
FA: "Oh... okay.."
FA: "I guess... that's true for, um..."
FA: "Everyone..."
AP: "Oh?"
FA: "No one is... um..."
FA: "As they seem, right...?"
AP: "Absolutely. It's true that a lot of people can be assholes, but it's rare that anyone is as much of a bad person as you might deem them to be at first glance."
AP: "People can be judgmental like that."
FA: "Yeah... I guess so..."
FA: "By the way, um..."
FA: "I wanted to, um..."
FA: "Try to cheer... Finn up..."
AP: "Did something happen? Or is he just being moody?"
FA: "I mean..."
FA: "I've told I think he's, you know..."
FA: "A little pushy..."
FA: "But..."
FA: "I think he's just sad..."
FA: "He needs someone to cheer him up, you know?"
AP: "He could be just a little lonely, happens to the best of his. It could be that his over-assertiveness is his way of not feeling ignored."
FA: "Maybe..."
FA: "But... I don't know... how to cheer him up.."
FA: "Well..."
FA: "Without him, you know..."
FA: "Yelling at me..."
AP: "Hmm, this looks like it needs a bit of brainstorming. I've never really had to cheer up a depressed dude before."
AP: "Maybe he just needs a bit of encouragement?"
AP: "What are his favorite hobbies aside from anonymously picking online fights?"
AP: "Drawing and a bit of electrical tinkering? I can't really remember too much about those."
FA: "Oh!"
FA: "He likes to make OCs!"
AP: "...Alright then. I guess we can stimulate that artsy part of his personality, you know?"
FA: "I think so..."
FA: "He even drew me an OC after I asked about it!"
AP: "Encourage him to make more OCs, or to do something with the ones he's already thought up."
FA: "I do have some paper around here.... I think I could, um... draw one for him..."
FA: "What, um..."
FA: "Animal does him, um... like?"
FA: "Do you think?"
AP: "Fee, you can draw? That's pretty sweet! I envy you!"
FA: "I've... drawn a few times.."
AP: "Lemme recall."
AP: "I just realized."
AP: "I have no idea."
AP: "Maybe a turtle?"
FA: "A turtle?"
FA: "Maybe..."
FA: "I... hope he doesn't mind... a turtle.."
AP: "Turtles are pretty neat."
AP: "I may be projecting a bit here though."
FA: "You like turtles?"
AP: "Yeah they're alright."
AP: "They're also green, which is a big plus."
FA: "You're favorite color is... green?"
AP: "Wellll, I really like green. I also like blue a lot. But I guess my absolute favorite color is Teal!"
AP: "It's just absolutely magnificent to behold, wouldn't you agree?"
FA: "Teal..."
FA: "Isn't that, um... light blue?"
FA: "I think...?"
AP: "It's, uh, the color of my text? Is the chat client not displaying my text color correctly?"
FA: "Oh.. that's teal."
FA: "Yeah. It's really pretty."
AP: "Thanks! It reminds me of the color of the beaches I spent most time at on my vacations with my family. Its always really pretty when the water is clear."
FA: "Where's, um... your family now?"
AP: "I'm not sure."
FA: "Oh..."
FA: "I'm... sorry... I..."
FA: "Didn't think... you..."
FA: "I'm... I'm sorry..."
AP: "It's alright, no biggie."
AP: "I know they're out there. I plan to find them."
AP: "Between you and me that's why I turned to magic in the first place."
FA: "To find your family?"
AP: "Among other things, yes."
AP: "magic's pretty powerful, yeah?"
AP: "I believe I can do anything I set my mind to, If I grow sufficiently powerful, magic-wise."
FA: "I'm sure you can, Ahmed!"
FA: "And... yeah... magic is pretty powerful..."
FA: "I'm sure it, um.. hurts to get hit by some..."
AP: "I can attest to that."
AP: "Though I have to say, it's proving pretty damn difficult for some reason."
FA: "Oh? What's happened..?"
AP: "Nothing to worry over, it's just that I convinced Boss Man to give me a bit of one on one magic instruction."
AP: "It didn't play out quite how I wanted, unfortunately."
FA: "I... hope he didn't.. hurt you too badly..."
AP: "Most of my attempts at spell casting were either completely ineffective or outright blew up in my face."
AP: "Really, most of my grievances were self inflicted. Nothing really hurt as much as my dignity."
FA: "It's okay... I mean..."
FA: "You can... always, um... try again, right?"
AP: "That's the spirit! And I've been doing just that, when I have time to myself. Sure, progress might be slow, but It's better than nothing!"
FA: "Yeah..."
AP: "Back to Finn, think you can draw up something to cheer him up?"
AP: "(Still jealous of your mad skillz btw.)"
FA: "I... I think so...."
AP: "Nice!"
FA: "Thanks..."
AP: "Well, I better leave it to you then"
FA: "I... guess so..."
AP: "Cya, Fee!"
FA: "Bye... Ahmed.."
