*They both fall down, grabbing their legs and screaming. Elvis turns to you with a surprised look.*
*Elvis "Dad? You saved me!"
*She runs up, hugging you.*
English
-
"Dad? Uhh..." [b]Huh. This was new. Hadn't been called dad since Alice learned I wasn't her real dad. Felt good to be called it again. I'd always wanted to be a father, but my wife kept losing the babies... Maybe... Nah, this kid was too old, wasn't she? She looked around Alice's age. Still...[/b] "Listen kid, I ain't your dad, but I'd damn well accept the offer to be a father again."
-
*Elvis "What are you talking about Daddy? You're my dad! It's me, Elvis!" (She's 18 by the way.)
-
[b]I guess... This was a chance. If I chose to take it. And you'd better be damn sure I'd take it.[/b] "Fine kid. I'm your dad."
-
*Elvis "Oh, don't act like you don't already know me!" *She says, hugging you tighter.*
-
[b]I slowly wrap my arms around her, slow and steady. Didn't want to scare her away. It would be nice to have a daughter again. Well, an adopted daughter but one nonetheless. I was excited. Happy. I'd actually have someone to care for again. It would be a nice change of pace. I couldn't just throw myself at the Legion anymore. Then what would happen if I died? Would she be sad? Crushed? Would she even care? No. don't think about that. Think about how happy you are. Think about all the good times you're gonna have. I smile, even though she can't say it.[/b] "It's good to see you again, I guess. Good to have you back." [b]Might as well play along with her insane ramblings too.[/b]
-
*Elvis "It's good to see you too dad! I bet I look really different after ten years!" *She says as she looks up at him, smiling.*
-
"Yeah. You really do. I'd imagine I do too. Where have you been? Never could find you after looking for a while."
-
*Elvis "God, I can't remember all the places I've been. For a while I think I was the queen of rats..."
-
"Queen of rats? That's... That's interesting... What exactly does that mean? You know what, never mind. I probably don't wanna know. Say, do you have a room yet? In the Dojo?"
-
"Yeah, I have an apartment. It's a little bit messy though." *She motions to the apartment building. You can see there is a gaping hole in the side looking into her apartment.*
-
"Yeah... I can tell. Well, I have a room in the little complex off to the left, so if you need anything, come knocking, alright? Don't hesitate to ask me, okay?" [b]Funny. I barely knew this girl, yet it was like I'd always known her. Probably just my brain filling the massive void in my soul.[/b]
-
*Elvis "Alright dad! I'll just follow you around then!" *She starts searching through the two pockets on her bathrobe, starting to look worried.*
-
"Hey, what's wrong? You look like you lost somethin." [b]I was worried too. About her, not what she'd lost. Unless it was important.[/b]
-
*Elvis "I'm just looking for something... Ah, here it is!" *She holds out a rock for you to take.*
-
[b]I gingerly take the rock. I examine it, wondering if it was just a rock, or if it was some sort of death-rock that summoned Lovecraftian horrors from the fifth dimension.[/b] "What exactly is it?"
-
[quote]Lovecraftian[/quote] Eyyy
-
*Elvis "IT'S A ROCK!!!" *She shrieks while giving him a warm smile.*
-
"Uhh... Yeah. Okay. I appreciate it? Umm..." [b]I am thoroughly confused at this point. What the hell was her deal with that rock? I guess it's better not to question it.[/b] "Hmm... What do you wanna do? I'm a little bored, and target practice doesn't seem to viable."
-
*Elvis "You're welcome dad." *It comes out as a low mumble for some reason. But then she goes back to speaking normally.* *Elvis "I don't know... I'm BOOORRRRRRRRRED!"
-
"Uhh... Are you hungry? I could cook something up really fast... I've heard I'm a really damn good cook." [b]That was mostly from Alice. Damn it... Gitta stop thinking about her. Gotta move on. I have Elvis now.[/b]
-
*Elvis "I'm always hungry! Bring me many of the food!"
-
"Heh. Come with me." [b]I began to walk towards my room. I was gonna cook her the best goddamn meal ever.[/b]
-
*She follows him, zig-zagging left to right as she walks.*
-
[b]We reach my room, and I open the door. The walls are plastered with NCR propaganda, posters and the like. I go straight over to the stove, and get to work.[/b] "I've only got one rule. Don't touch the mannequin in the corner with the beret and armor, got it?"
-
