I'm sorry for the puns in this post.>>12657925The boy scowls, "Just go find another tree? JUST GO FIND ANOTHER TREE?" he repeats. He walks up to you, and dabs his finger into your chest.
"Let me tell you something, miss "MAYOR", I was BORN in that tree, that tree was my legacy! I can't just 'go and FIND another tree', there's a million of 'em around here but none of them will ever be like the one I had!"
With a pout, the jerk-husbando walks away. Once you're out of earshot, you see that he sighs and sulks the rest of the way.
You turn your attention to cute-waifu, "Oh, don't mind Taipe. He can be really grumpy sometimes, but it's only because he doesn't remember a lot of stuff, he can't even remember his own parents! I don't think he's even see them before either... He likes to say he "hides from me" in the tree just to get away from me, but really it's where he lives!"
She then blinks, "Oh! I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Paige Up!~ But you can just call me Paige, miss mayor. Anyhow, Tai's first memory that he can recall was waking up in that tree, so he's grown kind of an attachment to it. I'm sure he'll have no problem finding another tree though!"
You strengthen the bond with Paige by allowing her to call you by your first name, "Kii". Human bonds work well, stick with who you know, and you share anatomy with.
You start to feel kind of bad for what you did, was it really that worth it?
A) "How can you not mind him if all he does is call you names?"
B) "I should probably go apologize..."
C) "Do you know what happened to the last mayor?"
