SLANTED MIND

 

 HOW TO READ

*stuff in between asterisks* -- Can be either 1) thoughts of the character, 2) action made by the character or 3) description of what’s going on.  Basically, this was meant to remind me what to draw.   

***stuff between multiple asterisks*** -- Same as above, I just wanted to make sure I didn’t forget :P 

(stuff between parentheses) -- Stuff that the character says “in the background”, not intended to be in an official speech bubble. 

 

Chapter 20 – First Fight  (Script)

 

***At the Hospital, Meros rushes in Thanat’s room***

Nurse: *bandages Thanat’s forehead* There you go.

Meros: Thanat!!  Are you ok?  What happened??!

Thanat: *smiles a little* I’m okay, I got a few stitches, but it’s nothing grave. 

Meros: NOTHING GRAVE?!  You’ve got STICHES!! 

Thanat: …

Meros: What happened??? 

Thanat: …

Meros: … *insisting look*

Thanat: *sigh*  I got a visit from my ex-boyfriend. 

Meros: *makes large eyes*

Thanat: *shrugs*  It’s okay, I don’t think he’ll come back.  Everything’s fine now that he got back at me… 

Meros: …you mean you’re not even gonna lodge a complaint…?

Thanat: No, it’s not worth it. 

Meros: THANAT!  That guy got you into a hospital!  He has GOT to face justice, you can’t let him get away with it, it’s not fair!!! 

Thanat: I don’t care if it’s fair or not, I just don’t want any more trouble. 

Meros: *disgusted* you don’t want trouble…  *weeping with rage*  How can you think that way?!  He’s dangerous!  What if he comes back?!  Why are you being so weak?!

Thanat: *annoyed* …is this what you think of me?

Meros: … *tears of rage*

Thanat: Meros…  How many years can he get for this?  None!  He’ll probably just get some sort of therapy and community service.  I know him: he’ll never forgive me if I am to do ANYTHING against him.  I know how he thinks, he’s done with me as long as I don’t provoke him, HE WON’T BE BACK! 

Meros: What if he tries to hurt other people?!?  It’s your obligation to prevent this! 

Thanat: Didn’t you hear what I just told you!?  He won’t leave me alone if I don’t leave -him- alone! 

Meros: Why are you letting him get away with this, why are you being such a coward?!

Thanat: Why should -I- be the one risking my life for this?!  Why should I worry about others BUT NOT ABOUT US?!

Meros: “us”!?

Thanat: Don’t you understand?! 

Meros: …

Thanat: Don’t you understand… that he can hurt -you- in order to get back at me…?  

Meros: …! 

Thanat: It wouldn’t be fair!  I don’t want to get you involved in this, I don’t want to suffer anymore because of him, I just want him out of my life!  How is this so hard to understand?!  I don’t want to sue him, I don’t want to see him ever again, and I really think this is it now!  I left him, he found me back and hurt me, we’re even! 

Meros: *weeping* 

Thanat: *reaching for Meros, hugs him tight*

Meros: …

Thanat: …  Don’t worry…

Meros: *wiping tears off*  Please don’t scare me like that again… 

Thanat: I’m afraid I can’t promise that with my cross as a trouble magnet!  *half joking*

Meros: *struggles out of Thanat’s embrace* Stop it already!  I hardly see your cross when I look at you!  How come you are so conscious of its presence?   Why aren’t you used to it already? 

Thanat: ...  *taken aback*

Meros: Why did you get it anyway?
