>>24819427Your ever-hapless hero's intuition can't help but figure that the best and least suspicious way to emerge from the abandoned house is to break out of it in the same way that you broke in. That way, you'll look like someone who just enters and exits buildings in a fixed, albeit odd manner, and not like a deranged home invader with more than a few issues.
Of course, none of your tactical calculations account for the prince of exploration (and exaggeration) waiting just outside the door. So when you break out the window and spot him while covered in glass shards and blood, your plan kind of derails and falls to pieces.
"HEY! I KNOW YOU!" you call, having not forgotten about losing the hedgehog.
Still thinking you're some phantom from beyond the deathly horizons, Midoro jumps and scrambles off. "G-GAAAAAAAAAAAH! P-P-P-P-PHAAAAANTOOOOOOOOOOOM! AAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
"Get back here! I STILL HAVE TONS OF QUESTIONS TO BOTHER YOU WITH!"
Sadly, his panic doesn't carry him far. He abruptly trips over a rock and falls flat on his face. His leg twitches, and by the time he gets up, his face is scuffed and he's quite cross.
"Oh! It's just you! Mister Gunky Grown-Up, here to spoil my fun again! It wasn't enough that Papa had to hire you to bring me back underground, he had to pay you to babysit for the whole day too! Is that it? Or wait, maybe you're just an unpaid intern! The great Midoro-sama has no sympathy for you in which case!"
A) "My name is Calem, and I'm NOT gunky!"
B) "First of all: Everything I've done from day one has been f o r f r e e ."
C) "I don't work for anybody, I've been a cold loner ever since my wife died."
D) "Pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft.....'Papa'?"
