WHO: Andrew, OPEN WHAT: Being broody and a touch crazy WHERE: Pasadena-- board game shop on Colorado WHEN: Wednesday afternoon RATED: PG-13, language.
Darkness was already growing inside of Andrew. He grew resentful of the Scooby Gang and Angel Investigations for abandoning him. He left and nobody noticed. He was homeless and nobody cared. If it hadn't been for Jaina...
Jaina feels sorry for you. She laughs at you when you're not there.
Andrew shook his head as the voices of anger and fear grew. He lazily took another game off the shelf and set it up, hoping someone would stop by his table and want to play. He so badly wanted friends again... not someone who pitied him or thought he was a joke because he was so enthusiastic about the others.
It's Jaina's fault you are separated from the others. She's ashamed of you.
He plugged his ears with his hands, hoping it would make it go away... but the familiar voice inside his head just laughed. Even Captain Hart left him.
Everybody leaves you.
No. Warren and Jonathon didn't leave him.
That's because you fucking killed Jonathon, you idiot!
And Warren was fileted.
We don't need a repeat of your entire boring life. Just play the goddamn game already so we can go home. I hate this game. It's stupid.
"No I don't."
You don't, but I do- jesus do I have to spell it out for you about what's going on here? You can't possibly be that idiotic!
Andrew frozen, completely confused. Behind the counter of the store, the manager of the store stared at Andrew. "Crazy goddamn CalTech nerds."
Andrew stood and screamed at the manager, "We are not crazy!" He covered his mouth with his hands. "Ohmygosh, I did it! I'm a part of the hive mind!"
If I had limbs, I would hit you right not. ... Alright, yeah, Hive mind. Hooray. Let's not tell anybody.
"Fine." Andrew sighed with a huff as sat back down at his boardgame and began to deal out the cards to himself and to an empty seat across the table.
