Alejandro: "Well this is the last of your decorative moving boxes... I guess it's time to say goodbye?"
Atreo: "Yeah I guess. Thanks for helping me move. Before you go, is there a chance I could get my inheritance?"
Alejandro: "Wow that's pretty shameless."
Atreo: "It's my new trait. So can I?"
Alejandro: "Mijo, you've really upset Acco and your mother is still talking about it. By which I mean she hasn't left the fox sanctuary and they are still filming her speech."
Atreo: "Ugh, you too? I'm sick of you all defending Acco! I'm not going to apologise. You know what Acco did to me. He deserves to get eaten by a cow plant or crushed by a vending machine."
Alejandro: "Oh mijo, I know you're angry, but that's such a horrible thing to say, he's your little brother."
Atreo: "Exactly, so he should have known better than to start dating Kiry!"
Alejandro: "What if we have a family meal together and talk things over? I know we can fix these hurt sentiments."
Atreo: "I'm too busy. You don't understand the pressure I'm under! I just enrolled in university, and I need to have a baby with a mermaid as soon as possible. Oh, and I just realised I need to complete a void critter collection."
Alejandro: *sigh* "You're just like your mother, following the Watcher's will... Your mum never got any help so here, have your inheritance. Start your very random life Atreo, I hope you find happiness."
Atreo: "Thanks."
Atreo: "Yes! 50,000 simoleons! I can officially buy this house now and go inside it."
Alejandro: "... It's getting late. I should be heading home. It would be nice if you would come and visit us sometimes. You're always welcome."
Atreo: "I know, I have the 'always welcome' trait."
Alejandro: "I think you know that's not what I meant. Please consider it, mijo. I love you."
Atreo: "...I'll think about it."
Alejandro: "Goodnight son."
Alejandro sadly walks away to the disturbing chorus of the wild foxes shrieking repetitively into the desert night.
Atreo: "Hmm. I know I'm shameless, but I'm starting to feel a little gu-"
Zehra: *appears suddenly* "Atreo! I have an amazing surprise for you!"
Atreo: "Gah, Zehra! Where have you been, my strictly platonic bestie? I already showered; it was weird not having to kick you out of the bathroom beforehand."
Zehra: "I know, I'm sorry. But this surprise is gonna make up for it. I just know you'll love it!"
Zehra: "So right after I left the dungeon, basement... thing, I was listening to the voice in my head, not the ones that tell me to dress in paint-splattered tank tops and sleep on park benches, but the loud otherworldly one- Oh, I'm rambling, I'll ruin it, please just let me show you!"
Atreo: "Okay, I guess I trust you bestie."
Zehra: "I have a feeling once you see my surprise, you'll never call me bestie again."
Atreo: "Why? You don't like bestie? What should I call you then? BFF? Mate? Amigo? I need a term to emphasise how we are best friends and absolutely nothing else."
Zehra: *whines in heartbroken agony* "Just ignore that, I do it when I'm excited. Let's move on, I need water. A lot of water for my surprise."
Atreo: "I have a pool... Are you sure I'm going to like this surprise?"
Zehra: "Haha, if you don't, I'll raze this neighbourhood to the ground and tear my way out of this reality to punch the Watcher in the face."
Atreo: "Uh..."
Atreo: "Hey, did your hair get longer?"
Zehra: "Yeah, yeah, it's apparently all part of what I'm gonna show you. Ah, this pool is amazing! It'll make things so much easier. You really shouldn't swim, though. Not with where I put your tracker."
Atreo: "Thanks for the warning? But wait, I have baths all the time-"
Zehra: "Don't worry about it, now watch!"
Zehra: "Here I goooo!"
Atreo: "You're jumping in with your everyday clothes on?! How is that even possible?! Was this the surprise?"
Atreo: "Is...Is that a tail. A mermaid tail... OMW I SEE A MERMAID TAIL!!"
Atreo: "Uuuuuuh..."
Zehra: "Sooo, what do you think?"
Atreo: "Uuuuuuh... I-I... Uhhhhh... y-you... t-tail..."
Zehra: "Do you like it? I did this for you, my love. I will be whatever you need me to be. I'll do whatever you need me to do. Because I love you. Obsessively. Ever since we were kids, and I saw how amazing you were at bowling, and how you beat Esma at that arcade game, no matter what she or the scoreboard said."
Atreo: "Z-Zehra... I want your babies. I-I mean, I want you to have my babies... P-please?"
