Title: Chapter 36-9, Colin looks for Rob. Post by: Doc on July 16, 2007, 06:44:52 PM Come on, what are you afraid of? Last period's bell just rang and Colin noticed Rob in the hall. "Hey, Rob, have you got a minute?" he asks. Title: Re: Chapter 36-9, Colin looks for Rob. Post by: secretoracle on July 16, 2007, 07:05:57 PM Rob waves to a couple people and says he'll see them later. "Sure, what's up?" Title: Re: Chapter 36-9, Colin looks for Rob. Post by: Doc on July 17, 2007, 11:18:50 AM "Would you come over to my house for a cup of chocolate and a game? There are many things I'd like to ask you, and... Well there is something I'd like to talk you about. Unless you don't already know all about it." Title: Re: Chapter 36-9, Colin looks for Rob.

With that said, why not just walk with me and ask whatever it is you want to ask me about." Title: Re: Chapter 36-9, Colin looks for Rob. Post by: Doc on July 17, 2007, 05:23:37 PM Colin freezes, slightly agape. God and Great Spirit. He closes his mouth, but he still has no idea what to say. I never thought he might feel this way. He never... Sarah never either... Donnie, Dave and Greg never mentioned anything like this. "Ehm... Well I saw you at our table and I... wondered if you might be interested being a Usual Suspect in full... now that... well, you know." Title: Re: Chapter 36-9, Colin looks for Rob. Post by: secretoracle on July 17, 2007, 06:25:15 PM "I've come to terms with some stuff in my life. I have a little diffeent perspective on things too, so I think I'll just go back to what I was before, Sarah's friend and that guy that hangs out with Greg and Dave. Unless you feel there needs to be something else going on?" Title: Re: Chapter 36-9, Colin looks for Rob. Post by: Doc on July 17, 2007, 09:50:02 PM "Well, are you really what you were before? I mean... several awful things have happened, and you know we tried to put a stop to it, to find out about it. A boy has died, killed by some black magic so awful that someone wanted to try on him to see if it really was that deadly. Another has been consumed by a demon. We're trying to deal with all this, and we could really use your help, if you felt like it too. It's pretty much what we end up talking about at lunch anyway. Dave and Greg have been helping too."

Not as some super guy that does anything Rob couldn't do. Okay with you?" Title: Re: Chapter 36-9, Colin looks for Rob. Post by: Doc on July 17, 2007, 09:55:49 PM "Oh." It takes Colin a moment to readjust to this revelation too. "Yes, I am ok with that. I'm... well I'm happy for you. Rob has never been too bad anyway. I'm glad we can count on you." |
