TW // SELF HARM IMPLICATIONS AT THE START, AGGRESIVE BEHAVIOR.

HERES A SPECIAL SCRIPT FOR YOU. :)

"I don't know what to do. I know this is bad for me, but I just can't stop. It feels like every single wound I inflict upon myself is well deserved because of how horrible of a person I am. I don't want anyone to help me. I know I deserve to feel this way."

"I don't want anyone to save me when I feel perfectly content with something like this—I know that I.."

————

"Alright, everyone!" Ethan says with a proud smile, clasping his hands together in a way that causes me to flinch a little. Looking toward the three of us, he adds, "I think it's about time we prepare for the Movie Festival. So.." His voice falters, and he let's out a sigh. "..let just try to get this done."

Kevin let out a long sigh. "Geez.. why does everything feel kinda weird today?"

"..mm. Usually when things feel weird, it means something bad is gonna happen.." Rick added, staring at the ground with a tinge of anxiety behind his monotone voice.

"Guys, c'mon.." Ethan says in an exhausted tone, a frown formed upon his lips that would usually be curled into a calm smile or some sort of smug smirk. "We need to get this done anyway. I don't wanna sit around waiting for it to happen, y'know. I'm gonna be getting posters and stuff done. Kevin, I—"

"You want me to make snacks and stuff, right?" Kevin casually says before Ethan can finish, "Don't worry. I was gonna do that anyway."

Ethan hesitates, before letting out a simple laugh. "..heh. Well, it's nice you've got things covered. And.. Rick, I.." A pause fill the air, and he finally let's out a sigh. "..I.. don't really care what you do. Just do whatever you wanna do. Only as long as you think it'll help out.."

"..Ethan, if you think I'm useless, you can just say it.." Rick practically grumbles, looking down at the floor.

"I—I don't think that!" Ethan quickly replied, hid voice softening. He then pressed his palm against his face out of exhaustion. "..look, I'm sorry. I'm just not really feeling that great today."

"..mm.." Rick mumbles, "..I'll make some decorations for the festival so the mood feels right. I wouldn't want the event to suck or anything."

"Well, alright.. if you wanna do that, then go ahead." Ethan says with a soft laugh, forcing a weak smile.

"..what about them?" Rick asks, gesturing to me slightly—I only finally start looking upward when I hear my name being said. "You didn't say what they'd be doing."

"Oh.. they're, uh.. gonna be helping me." Ethan slowly says—as if cautious.

"..wh—what?!" Kevin immediately yells. "You have like the easiest job! What do you mean they're gonna help you?"

"I'm—well, like I said.. they're gonna help me. I'm sorry if you wanted something different, but thats just how it's gonna be." Says Ethan—slightly raising his normally calm voice. I watched with my heart beginning to beat anxiously. Something in the room began to feel different just then.

"Thats just how it's gonna be? Is that all you have to fucking say?!" Kevin growls—his hands wildly gesticulating. I hear a loud thud as he takes an aggresive step foward.

"I.. agree with him." Rick mutters, stepping foward as well. "You already are good at posters and stuff. I could use some actual help on stuff like decorations.."

Kevin grunts angrily. "Ugh.. and I could use some help too! I don't care what sort of president stuff you do. Just don't randomly decide they're gonna help you without even telling us—"

"..you could use some help?" Rick says—his voice dripping with sarcasm, "..I don't remember the last time you needed help on something as easy as snacks. Did you suddenly become incompetent the moment they got here or something..?"

"Incompetent—you're one to talk, you asshole!" Kevin snaps back rather immediately, practically hissing at Rick who flinches slightly.

"..gu—guys.." I try to stammer out, but Ethan speaks before I can even say a word.

"Come on, let's just try to—"

"All you two care about is just dragging the new member around with you because you're all lovey-dovey with them!" Kevin interrupts while rolling his eyes. "You don't even give me a chance to talk to them! Neither you, or Ethan!"

"Wh—What?" Ethan stutters. "..but I didn't even—"

"Don't even try to say anything. You know damn well what you've been doing." Hisses Kevin, his lips drawn back into an angry snarl of a frown. "Just let them make the choice instead of trying to decide for them!"

"I.. didn't—"

"Yes you did, Ethan. Just let them decide." Rick blankly says, his brows furrowed.

Ethan goes quiet for a moment, before letting out a heavy sigh. "..fine. You know what? Fine. I'll let them decide.."

"Ugh.." Kevin groans, and then looks my way with a frown. "Hey, I know they're both being pretty annoying.  Let's just—"

"Shut up."

Rick let's that sentence slip out with a growl. Kevin snaps his head in Rick's direction, his eyes widened out of slight surprise from the odd firmness of his tone.

"Let them decide—be quiet." Rick snarls again—his voice still oddly calm.

"Ugh—see?! This is what I'm talking about!" Kevin cries, "You—"

"Oh my god.. both of you—enough." Ethan forces himself between them, and lightly shoves the both of them away from eachother. Rick only continues to glare at Kevin, before looking back over to me. And Kevin only crosses his arms, glancing away with an annoyed frown.

Ethan sighs, and looks at me with a soft look. "..new member, just make the choice, alright? It'll be better for the both of us."

I wasn't really sure who I'd help in this situation. Or if I wanted to help anyone at all. Not with the way things have been around here lately. But I feel myself noticing how Kevin then begins to glare harshly at me, how Rick seems to be waiting for whatever word may dictate my fate, and how Ethan seems to be getting more and more subtly impatient by the minute.

I didn't wanna keep them waiting. But at the same time, I was afraid of what would happen if I talked at all.

Opening my mouth, I forced out the word.
