Nico #540: Are You Scared of Thunder?
Player
The rain isn't letting up.
Nico
It sure isn't. And it was so nice until just a moment ago.
Player
And I just had to go and suggest stopping by that store today. I'm sorry, Nico.
Nico
It's not like it's your fault. Don't worry about it.
Nico
Anyway, today is a day out for just us two. There's no way I was ever gonna turn that down!
Player
*Giggle* Thanks.
Nico
But still… How long do you think this rain's gonna last?
[Fade in/out.]
Nico
I can hear thunder…

Nico…
| Option 1: “Are you scared?” |
|---|
| Player Are you scared of thunder? Nico Don't be ridiculous! Of course not. I was just mildly concerned! Player Why? Nico Because there's a certain someone I know who's pretty afraid of thunder! |
| Option 2: “It's pretty scary, huh.” |
| Player Thunder is pretty scary, huh? Nico It'll be all right. It's still very far away, so we don't need to worry about it. Player That's true, but… Nico Geez, you're so anxious. You're just like them! Player Just like who? |
Nico
Speak of the devil. Sorry, can I take this call?
Player
Go ahead.
Nico
Hello? Yup, okay. I'll come home right away… It's gonna be all right. Don't worry. See you.
Player
Was that call from your little siblings?
Nico
Yep. They sounded pretty scared of the thunder. They're anxious kids, just like someone else I could name.
Player
Oh. So earlier you were talking about Cocoro, Cocoa, and Cotaro.
Nico
Exactly. I don't think I'm gonna make it home any time soon in this rain, though.
Player
But they seemed pretty afraid, didn't they?
Player
Let's run.
Nico
What?!
Player
The station isn't far away at all. Besides, Cocoro and the others are waiting for you, aren't they?
Nico
Yeah, but! There's no way we can get through this rain in one piece.
Player
It'll be fine! C'mon, Nico, let's go. Grab my hand!
Nico
…………
Nico
Well, I guess you're leaving me no other choice. You can't say that I didn't try to warn you!
Nico
Though I admit…I kinda like this side of you too.
