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 21 – Reconciliation  (Script)

 

***At the movies, sitting at a restaurant table, waiting for their assigned room to open for the movie***

***Thanat’s cross is distorted due to the scar left by the stitches***

Coloa: You got it to scare bullies away?! 

Meros: *embarrassed smile*

Thanat: *trying to look calm and dignified*

Anouk: Meros, I know you can’t tell jokes but...  Is this a joke?!  *Turns to Thanat* It has got to be a joke!

Meros: hahahahaha It isn’t!!  *giggles*

Thanat: *gives him stern look*

Coloa: No way!! 

Meros: Yeah!! 

Thanat: It worked FINE for a few years, mind you… 

Coloa: It stopped working? 

Thanat: *nods* Recently… 

Meros, Coloa, Anouk: …

Thanat: I couldn’t make my mind to lose it.  It has some sort of sentimental value, but…  Now that it’s scared, it looks kinda weird *pouts*

Anouk: Only now that it’s scared??  I think you need to open your eyes, it looked weird right from the start dude! 

Meros, Coloa, Thanat: *smile-sweatdrop*

Thanat: *ignores Anouk* It was pretty useful when I was in high school, but it’s not well perceived generally, now that I’m not supposed to scare people away I mean… 

Coloa: So you’ll get it removed…? 

Thanat: *shrugs* perhaps…

Meros: …  *smiles to himself*

Anouk: Uh, Meros, is that your brother?? 

Meros: *turns around* …yeah!!  *waves to him* JESS- *sees Joan with Jessa, freezes* -A…

Joan & Jessa: *see them*

Joan: *turns around, surprised, wants to walk away* 

Jessa *walks their way, holding Joan by the hand; she seems reluctant*

Anouk: He’s on a date with Joan…??! 

Jessa: Hey! 

Joan: …  *crimson*

Everyone: *frozen*

Jessa: You’re here to see Bright Night, I suppose?

Meros: y-yeah…

Jessa: *To Joan* our date is officially ruined.  Wanna join us?  *Joan looks dead embarrassed*

*Everyone looking at each other except Thanat, staring at the table, looking a little annoyed*

Meros: sure! 

Jessa: Let’s go then!  *turns around, Joan follows him*

Coloa: *gets up and catches up with Joan, taking Joan by the elbow*  Joan!  hi…

Joan: *surprised, looks at Coloa (she’s smiling), then at everyone else (they’re all smiling, except Thanat)*

Joan: *starts weeping* 

Coloa: *hugs*  I missed you! 

Anouk: *Tap on the shoulder, wide smile*  Good to see you again!

Meros: *big hug*

Joan: I thought you’d stay mad forever…

Meros: I was never really mad…  *turns to Thanat, not letting Joan go*

Thanat: *serious face* … 

Joan: …Thanat… I…   I’m …*wiping tears off, blushing*

Thanat: *hand gesture* I get it, no need to force it  *embarrassed*

Joan: *smiles, grateful*

Meros: *BIG SMILE* *hooks arms with Thanat*

Coloa: *Hooks arms with Joan*

*Everyone walks towards their assigned theatre room*
