Geo, walking through the area, notices what’s happening. “Hey, kids! Just what do you think you’re doing?”
English
-
One of the kids pauses from throwing rocks at the fellow to talk to you. “He’s a monster, and we’re getting him outta town!” The armored man protects his parrot and starts walking away from the conflict.
-
“Oh really? What if I told you, that not all monsters are necessarily evil?”
-
“That’s crazy talk, dude.” The kids start laughing, and throw rocks at the man as he leaves their range.
-
“Besides, if he was really a monster, wouldn’t he be hurting you right now?”
-
“Maybe, we don’t want zombies in town though.” “What, do you like monsters?” The kids stop throwing rocks and turn to face you.
-
“Oh, what’re you going to do, toss rocks at me?” [spoiler]Geo’s in fully Titanfall Pilot gear, so these kids are dumber than the rocks they carry.[/spoiler]
-
“Maybe! You’re probably just some bounty hunter, aren’t you!” “Yeah! You just sell yourself to the highest bidder!” [spoiler]Good to know! [/spoiler]
-
“You ever heard of the 6-4? Ah, what am I saying, of course you haven’t. You’re dumber than those rocks your holding. We don’t always work for whoever’s paying the most.”
-
“Ahah! But you ARE a bounty hunter!” “You’re no hero, you’re just scum!” “Yeah!” The thought occurs to you that you’re arguing with quite literally a handful of kids with nothing better to do.
-
“Oh Shelby!” 15 seconds later, a massive Titan, is behind Geo. “Now, if you toss those rocks, Shelby here would have to enact protocol 3? Shelby, protocol 3?” The Titan responds. “Protect the Pilot.”
-
The kids scatter at your titan’s sudden appearance. Down the way, the armored man is headed towards a pond, the parrot now on his shoulder.
-
Geo sighs. “Was I ever that rude has a kid Shelby?” “No.” “Thought not.” Geo heads over to the man.
-
When you reach the armored figure he is sitting at the bridge, feeding the ducks and his parrot.
-
“Hey, are you okay?”
-
He looks up at you, a pair of fiery blue eyes peeking out through the eye holes of his helmet. He nods, and offers you a bag of birdseed, motioning towards the ducks below.
-
Geo takes the bag, and pours some birdseed into her jeans, lowering it to the ground. “So, you’re undead? Eh, I’ve seen weirder.”
-
He nods somberly, and gestures to his bird with finger motions. It seems to understand him, and speaks. “Yeah. He woke up one day in this suit, and... that’s it.” The figure seems more at ease after you feed the ducks.
-
“If anyone ever does that to you again, just move away.”
-
He nods, and gestures to his parrot again. “It’s all we can do.”
-
“Hey, it’s something. I gotta go, but stay safe!”
-
He waves goodbye, and keeps feeding his ducks.
