A Question

[talkyourwayout]

I think this school might need better security. It seems like people come and go basically whenever, doesn't it? I wonder if there's some kind of sign-in sheet somewhere. Of course, it's easy to just fake a signature. [Louie would know. He doesn't have forgery experience, but he's made sure he knows a bit.] The point is that I saw someone around the school, and I think I know who it is. I'm pretty sure. And if it's them, it's probably going to end badly.

Here's the thing: I don't want to just assume someone's up to something. [He knows Webby wouldn't approve. He doesn't think Lena would appreciate the mentality, either. And he's had enough fighting with friends lately.] Usually when I can tell if someone's doing something wrong, it's because I know them. I can see they're acting strange. This is a stranger.

What's the best way to find out what's going on here? If I knew this would happen, maybe I would have taken the espionage class.

Well, what about what you think? That should probably count most of all.

What does your gut say?

[talkyourwayout]

I guess it says that this guy is up to something, but maybe it's wrong.

Look, this isn't even where I'm from. What if I get involved and just make trouble?

[woo_oo]

We're in a magical school where one of our teachers threatens to kill us over math problems and knife-wielding plants roam the hallways. I think trouble's a given.

[talkyourwayout]

Exactly! With all that going on, I don't want to make anything worse!

[woo_oo]

But what if you could make it better? Do you really not want to take that chance?

[talkyourwayout]

I'm not sure! I mean, maybe?

[woo_oo]

Okay, here's the deal. I think if you really didn't want to do it? If you wanted to steer clear of trouble, and think this guy was okay? You wouldn't be asking this to everyone.

I think you do want to at least try.

[See, this level of "getting" him is exactly why he has this annoying crush on her.]

Yeah. I think you're right.

I kinda hate when you do this kind of thing, Webs.

[Someone has lost sight of the fact that he was trying to remain anonymous.]

[woo_oo]

[That certainly does narrow it down.]

Louie?

[talkyourwayout]

[SHOOT.]

Saying no isn't really going to do me any good now, is it?
