....Do you really think they're going to actually send us home or help us in any way? Think about it. If there really was that chance, the guy offering it would've been stopped cold. Your idiots if you honestly think this isn't another friggin' scam again. Because, you know, I am just overwhelmed with excitement to try this again after frickin' Christmas.
Are you people really just that desperate you're going to believe what this schmuck is selling?

[You can find Pokey wandering around town today. However, instead of the obnoxious strut he usually carries himself with, he actually looks subdued. Hell, his head is actually down most of the time while he's walking.
And what seems like aimless wandering at first soon seems to form a pattern. He stops at certain locations: houses of people he knows (or houses that used to have people he knew), certain spots in the roads, stores. And just stands there. And stares for a moment. At what, and why, who knows. But he'll stay there for a few moments at each location before eventually moving on.
And he'll do that from the morning until near sunset. When evening finally falls, he can be found sitting on top of his mech on the front lawn of his house, ballet in hand.
Just staring it down.]

The more intimidating part is the eye of the mech immediately focusing on Scott.]
So did you actually have something to say to me, or did you just want to waste my time?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-03 08:17 am (UTC)Scott was surprisingly able to snap back to the present, escaping the train of thoughts which had his brain tumbling into despair.]
N-no! NO no no no! N-N-Not wasting your erm uh.. augh.. Your time.
I uhh.. Just saw you.. sitting there and thought I'd uhh.. see if you were.. umm...
See if you were.. okay?
[Scott recoils, wincing and cowering, as if a punch would be sent toward him.]
no subject
Date: 2011-01-03 08:25 am (UTC)He's laughing, Scott. He's laughing his ass off.]
Je-e-eez mister! Do you just look at your shadow and immediately run into your house out of fear it'll attack you?
Yeah. I'm fine. I'm just....thinking. About things. Real important stuff. I do that from time to time. It's a hobby.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-04 08:24 pm (UTC)[Did Pokey know about the strange shadow which had been following him around as of late?! MAN! This kid WAS a genius! Yet, Scott just snaps right back to it, as he is prone to doing.]
Oh. Hobby, huh? Well uhh.. Cool. Thinking is.. uhh.. good? I guess Mayfield has that effect on people here, huh?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-04 08:48 pm (UTC)[Now he's bouncing between outright amusement and confusion. Mister, what the hell is your deal?]
[He snorts a little, running a hand through his hair.]
Pfft, only on some. A lot of the morons here barely think to....think.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 01:32 am (UTC)[Kick your feet against the ground, twiddle your thumbs, just keep making yourself seem like a complete dumb-ass in front of this kid. Was there anything relevant for him to bring up in conversation instead of just walking in the opposite direction?
Oh! That's right!]
So uhh.. H-How about this ballot shit, huh?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 01:38 am (UTC)Yeah. It's stupid.
...You vote?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 04:50 am (UTC)Still debating. It's a tough call, ya' know? How're we supposed to believe what they say. On the other hand, what have we got to lose? Nothing can be worse than here.
.. A big part of me has been thinking about, "what if people who don't vote or vote against are stuck here?" I guess I've kinda' been holding out because.. Well.. If there are people stuck behind, some one has to help 'em.
[Wow. He didn't really mean to pour things out like that.]
Erm, sorry. I'm Scott. Scott Pilgrim. You're uhh.. Well, nice to meet you.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 05:16 am (UTC)I dunno. I'm sure that there are things that could be worse then here...
[Because what little bits he's gotten of it? His future doesn't sound too promising.]
But yeah. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
[Wait...what the hell was that? "You're"? Oh, no. No Scott. He's noticing that. And that little bit of friendliness that might have been there is immediately shed. He's just glaring again.]
I'm who?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 05:27 am (UTC).. Yeah. That's what I was about to ask. What's your uhh.. Your name?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 05:30 am (UTC)[Yeah. He's not sounding any friendlier at the moment.]
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 05:32 am (UTC)[.. Balls. Way to go, Pilgrim.]
W-Well. I guess I'll uhh.. be on my way, now.
[Scott doesn't turn around to walk away. Instead, he simply begins to step backwards as he anxiously keeps his gaze fixed on the stout and menacing looking boy.]
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 05:35 am (UTC)How do you know me?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-06 03:07 am (UTC)[Time to play dumb, Pilgrim! Hopefully his acting is as good as it ever was, and by good, well.. you get the idea.]
I-I'm sorry.. Know you? Ha.. Ha ha! We uhh.. Just met, ya' know? Right now. L-Like not even two minutes ago.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-06 04:34 am (UTC)[He just smiles for a moment. It isn't particularly pleasant. Although, in the most pleasant voice he can muster, he asks.]
Hey, you like music?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-09 06:04 am (UTC)[Scott seems less tense now. Music was the cure for everything. Anger. Sorrow. Music soothed the soul. At least, he thinks he heard that it did.. in a song once, of course!]
