(Y/N walks into Eagleator’s room to check up on him)
*slightly bothered* What.
…What do you want from me?
I… I’m fine… *his voice is shaky but grows stern* I’m fine.
The hell do you mean I’m not fine?
(he finally confesses after silence)
It’s just not the same as it was before…
You’re familiar with Hawkodile, right?
The guy who’s like…the bodyguard of the kingdom and stuff?
Yeah, him….. we were friends once.
We used to train together and everything…
Th-then our sensei rewarded him the shades…and I got mad, and I… I destroyed everything…
I… I really wanted the shades and… years later I came back for more, and more… and more…
Then things just…changed.
I wanted to challenge Hawkodile, I wanted to compete with him and show him who the better man was.
(he gradually sniffs as his voice wavers)
It’s like he forgot I was even there….
Always hangin’ out with his stupid friends…..!
E-especially that… th-that stupid pink cat who almost ended my life….
I…I moved on from that scumbag…I actually tried challenging other people to compete with me, and….
They just…went about their lives as if I was never born……
(he is now on the verge of tears)
It’s… (sniff) it’s like the entire kingdom is against me.
Even when I’m not the aggressive brute I usually am…
Every ounce of blood, sweat and tears I put into anything I do, it doesn’t matter to them as long as it’s me….
They never care for me, they never love me, they never believe me…
They always focus on that stupid…. STUPID pink brat…!!
Why?? Is it because I hurt one of her stupid friends??? …Is that why no one wants to be near me??? Is that why everyone hates me???
(Eagleator finally hits his breaking point and starts sobbing uncontrollably.)
EVERYONE FUCKIN’ HATES ME!!! … EVERYONE FUCKIN’ HATES ME!! …. Everyone f-fuckin’ hates me….!!!
(his face wet with tears, he notices Y/N looking at him with concern)
D-don’t you dare look at me….!
N-nobody actually loves me…… Nobody actually loves me…… Nobody actually……. nobody actually cares about me, ever……… they all hate me…….. they don’t want me here……..
(he continues sobbing. after a while Y/N places their hand on his shoulder)
You…… y-you mean to say… you….you really do care about me?
…..Y-you’re joking…… you have to be pullin’ both my legs, man…..
Y-you can’t be serious, man…….
Wh-why….why are you being…so…. nice to me….?
(Eagleator weeps again, and hugs Y/N back)
I think…. you might be the first person ever to actually say that to me……. (sniff)
I’ve never truly felt wanted up until now……
I’m…. I’m sorry I’m acting like this……
…..You’re not gonna judge me or anything…?
I’m…. I’m so happy… (sniff) but…. I can’t stop crying…..
You sure you don’t mind, huh……?
Y-you just might be the best thing that’s ever happened to me, man…. (sniff) I love you…..
