>Norman lets out a heartily chuckle.>”Anon… it’s okay if you’re not the kind of guy that says dude or whatever. You can talk however you want, you don’t have to say things like me, man. I’m not going to judge you, so don’t pressure yourself.”“Oh, alright.”
>”Yup, just like that social pressure, man. Gotta stay ahead of it.” Norman informs you as he walks away, slightly facing you. “Also… we were never here. This conversation didn’t happen.”“Right, right. I get it. We never had this conversation.”
>The official agreement to keep your lips sealed felt rather… grim. As though you just signed your soul over to the devil, and you’re going to face a world of trouble if you take one wrong step that goes out of line.>Whatever, that’s probably just you overreacting again. Take out your phone and look over your texts once again.>Right after Norman is clear out of sight, you open up the texts from one of the girls and tap on the contact info. You highlight the title and replace the default label with her name, Sunset Shimmer. Right after this, you do the same thing to Norman’s number, giving that contact info the corresponding name.>You never think at first about how you did Sunset’s contact info first, making her the first contact out of all of your new ones to actually be given a name. But there’s no time to overthink this right now.>Before Wednesday, you must find a way to get ahold of Sonata.
