THE OLD WOMAN AND THE SEA
[CITRUS! - lianhua]
Cowboy
"And that's about the entire story that I could remember!"
ShrimpRocks
"Ah......I'm looking at the game file right now and it seems there's a lot of details you've missed."
ShrimpRocks
"You're really not the best storyteller, are you?"
Cowboy
"Look, I'm just not interested in the story this game is dishing out, ma'am."
ShrimpRocks
"Oh I seeeeeeee!~"
ShrimpRocks
"You hated my story about Naut the sailor that much, huh?~" Shrimp playfully pretends to be hurt.
Cowboy
"Uh, no, no it's fine I'm sure, just, it's uh, a personal problem I guess?"
ShrimpRocks
"Oh hoo hoo hoo! Don't worry, I don't take it personally! I've gotten meaner comments about my work. I can't believe your friend sacrificed themselves for Naut by the way! Honestly if they're like that, there's a lot of hope for rehabilitation! Just like how I fixed up my BFF! The guy Naut is based on."
Cowboy
"I have to admit, my friend wasn't at the computer when their character did that. They kind of had a bit of an outburst and needed to chill out."
Cowboy
"I was supposed to be looking after their character, but the words "Cazkade has been slain" just popped up in the event logs and it was like "Woops." So uh, do understand that Yu might be a little stressed out. Don't judge them too harshly right off the bat."
ShrimpRocks
"A lady like me knows that when someone is stressed out, that's when they show their truest of colors!~"
ShrimpRocks
"When it comes to a situation like this, that's the BEST time to make judgements. You think you know a person until they get pissed off and start telling you to jump in the sea!"
ShrimpRocks
"Forgiveness is important, but there are lines that should never be crossed."
ShrimpRocks
"And I hate to say this.....but you're the type of guy to ignore red flags bigger than the sea."
ShrimpRocks
"Kind of like my husband!"
Cowboy
"Pandora?"

"Uh....Pandora is his pet name. Kind uh.....weird for you to be calling him that. X( You can just call him "The Mailman.""
ShrimpRocks
"He likes that name because it tells you everything you need to know, and care about. He delivers your mail, and that's that. Nothing more! <3"
Cowboy
"He's a pretty nice guy when he comes by. A little- uh."
ShrimpRocks
"Absurd? Blunt? He's got the cuuuuuuuuuutest resting bitch face.~ It makes him look like you've annoyed him by just existing."

"Also he has soooo many leg bands!!!! I hate to say it, but I'm kind of a band chaser, and there isn't a person who has more than him!"
ShrimpRocks
"Meanwhile I'm not special enough to have more than one...."
Cowboy
"Yeah, he's a little weird, no offense, I know that's part of the charm, when he delivers a package, asks to come in, drinks from the faucet, and then leaves without a word."

"Best way to drink water without dirtying your host's cups!"
Cowboy
"By the way, feel free to tell me if this is a little too personal to ask, but P- The Mailman is well, a mailman, and Cargo is..."
ShrimpRocks
"Scared of them? We really don't know what happened to her."
ShrimpRocks
"I don't know what happened because I was away on work at the time, but when my husband's grandmother died, apparently my beloved little girl was devastated. She loved her grammy so much. My husband says that she just started screaming at him, because he didn't care that grammy died. Which isn't true. I know he loved her as much as anyone else in his own special way."

"He told me, he only looked at her. That he absolutely didn't do ANYTHING else, but after that day she was always scared of her daddy."
ShrimpRocks
"I guess we should have known back then, that it was the start of her paranoia, but even if we put two and two together, what could we do? There weren't any doctors on the island we trusted......"
Cowboy
"I see, but the government realized eventually right, and tried to send medication?"
ShrimpRocks
"I don't trust the fucking government, birdbrain."
ShrimpRocks
"The government has taken nearly all of my children away from me because they think they can raise them better."
ShrimpRocks
"I bet you they put them all into schools...."
Cowboy
"Being in a school isn't that bad."
ShrimpRocks
"I'm like, not even going to argue with you on this cause I cannot even begin to explain how traumatic schools are for a normal person, you government shill. The government took me away from my parents to go put me in a school and it was awful!"
ShrimpRocks
"I was happy before that. Thought the government was real swell and ate whatever drugs they were pumping out. Sure my parents didn't care much where I went all day but I had sooooo much freedom."
ShrimpRocks
"Even if it got me into lots of trouble. That's just life, you know!"
Cowboy
"That doesn't sound good."
ShrimpRocks
"Different cultures I assume! Maybe your parent would have cared where you went for a few days, but not mine!"
Cowboy
"That really does not sound good."

"Whatever, brah. All I know is I would have liked to give Cargo a bit more freedom, but after most folks left the island following the lies of birds, the population has been pretty low here, and no one wants to become a miner, so the government sees a kid roaming around unattended and thinks they can just....just snatch them and tape a letter to your door."
Cowboy
"Following the lies of birds...?"
ShrimpRocks
"Yeah. A whole migration of birds flew over our island, and, it was like everyone was under a spell. It's not like the birds said anything, but seeing that many migrating suddenly? It scared people."
ShrimpRocks
"Everyone thought something horrible was about to happen. That they were fleeing. So a bunch of people got going over the sea. The sea!"
ShrimpRocks
"And then, that's when the storm rolled in...."
ShrimpRocks
"And those stupid. STUPID BIRDS came back to land. Laughing with their stupid calls because they realized the storm couldn't be weathered."
ShrimpRocks
"I remembered going to the end of the island, ready to head into the sea, try and bring people back. People kept trying to stop me, tell me it was crazy.....but you know what actually stopped me?"

"A guy on the beach, not a care in the world despite the storm, said to me......

"If you want to kill yourself. I can back up my truck on you. Would be quicker.""
ShrimpRocks
"Spent so long arguing with that guy, that I swear my dummy little brain couldn't focus on going to sea no more. Aaaaand that's how I met my husband!"
Cowboy
"I don't think that's a very good way to meet your husband."

"Well you got me there. Hey, uh, I know this is kind of a long shot, but do you know a guy called Scarpe? I know weird question but-"
ShrimpRocks
"I know the mailman, and the mailman knows everyone.~"

"I happen to know a Scarpe. Not directly of course. Low population and all. What's up?"
Cowboy
"Well, I saw something very worrying in...." Cowboy pauses, realizing how stupid it sounds. "....a video game. I've been trying to contact him but he's not answering. I'm just worried you know?"
ShrimpRocks
"Did you ask his whore of a best friend, Buck?"
Cowboy
"Ok, come on, can you not use that term negatively?"
ShrimpRocks
"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm......."
ShrimpRocks
"I'm going to keep calling whores, whores, thank you very much!~"
Cowboy
"But they're-"
ShrimpRocks
"Birdbrain. I don't care how much the government says that whores are a vital, small part of our system. I get that most people won't ever deal with them."
ShrimpRocks
"But imagine dealing with a man trying to date a married woman, and you know he's sent by the government."
Cowboy
"I don't know if the government sent "a whore" to date you. I think the guy might actually like you or something."
ShrimpRocks
"He's one of the biggest government shills on this planet, and he's a whore. I'm sorry but these two things might be connected, birdbrain."
Cowboy
"I'm starting to see the genetic connection."

"What's the government doing, sending a little old lady whores to her door....?"
Cowboy
"Which is why I'm saying it's likely just a normal guy and you're being uh, paranoid."
ShrimpRocks
"Mmmmmm normal men don't have four leg bands. Almost like the government knows I'm a chaser. A shame though. Even four bands won't beat out the hubby."

"Yeah, hit up Buck. He's always talking about his friend Scarpe when he eats dinner with us. Always worried about him too."
Cowboy
"Cool. I'll contact-"
Cowboy
"Hey why is the """Whore""" eating dinner at your place?"
ShrimpRocks
"He sometimes sleeps over."
Cowboy
"Like............????????"
ShrimpRocks
"Now now, birdbrain, don't jump to conclusions. I'm not the one that invites him in."
ShrimpRocks
"Hubby does."
Cowboy
"WHY?"

"If I knew, I wouldn't love him as much. This whore knocks on our door, asks if I'm around, and Hubby is all like "I do not know when she will be back. You can come in and wait.""
ShrimpRocks
"And don't worry. Hubby fully knows what this guy is here for. He just doesn't care, cause, and I quote-"
ShrimpRocks
"You would never sleep with this man. So it is ok if he comes for dinner and sleeps over."
ShrimpRocks
"They're like......friends? Maybe? I can't imagine being friends with a man trying to fuck your wife but big "k" moment I guess. It's nice though. I wonder if he did this for me? Cause like, at some point this whore just is like, barely trying."
ShrimpRocks
"Like sometimes he'll go on dates with me, and just give up on being romantic. Just hands me a sandwich and watches me eat it."
Cowboy
"Do you really think you should go on dates with this guy?"
ShrimpRocks
"He has nice stuff from off the island."
ShrimpRocks
"And I want nice stuff."
ShrimpRocks
"We're like the richest island already cause of all metal we're mining up, but it's soooooooo hard to get the REALLY fancy stuff. That's why Cargy has all that cool stuff she sells!"

"Cargo has...been selling this stuff for the four years we've been married. How long as this guy been on your back?"
ShrimpRocks
"*Not been on my back."
ShrimpRocks
"Also, mmmmm.....six years? It's kind of on and off. He gets shipped off by the government to other islands it seems."
Cowboy
"I don't think the government would put this much effort in to this."

"Anyway, if you need to hit up Scarpe, tell him "SHOW TIME!!!!!" from me."
Cowboy
"I'm not going to scare the guy for you."
ShrimpRocks
"Lame, bruh. I think that guy needs some more excitement in his life. Imagine working at a rental store when everyone is watching live tv on your island. Craaaaazy."

"Anyway I can't wait to speak to Cargy tomorrow for the game. Aaaaaaah! It's going to be so fun to talk to her again!"
ShrimpRocks
"I miss my little girl so much. I know you didn't really steal her, but it really felt like that. Felt like my life was falling apart all over again. Sorry if I've been rude or yelled at you about it in the past, and, genuinely thank you for setting this up for me despite everything."
ShrimpRocks
"She's the only child that hasn't been taken from me, so I'm so worried for her. I'm scared the government is going to snatch her at any moment and I'll be left with another letter in the mail....so....I would like to make this work."
Cowboy
"I can't promise anything."
Cowboy
"But I'll see what I can do."
Cowboy
"If you could stop calling me birdbrain, maybe I'll try a little harder."
ShrimpRocks

ShrimpRocks
"Oh, uh, actually bruh this is kind of random buuuuuuut I got a super duper important question to ask you."
ShrimpRocks
"Are you planning on having kids anytime soon?"
Cowboy
"I mean I wouldn't mind having kids whenever!"
ShrimpRocks
"Woah. You're terrifying."
Cowboy
"YOU ASKED ME A QUESTION AND I ANSWERED IT?"
ShrimpRocks
"This sucks. I asked you this question hoping you'd get scared off, or be like "Please lets not talk about this" but you're weird."
ShrimpRocks
"Lame....I finally get a son-in-law and I can't even cause them psychic damage by asking them horrible questions. What's the point of being your mother-in-law at this point?"
ShrimpRocks
"Well, you've set veeeeeery high expectations, so I better see something come out of this."
Cowboy
"Uh, don't have super high expectations. Maybe if Cargo was medicated-"
