"(...) I'm just here being an unemployed bum!"

My creativity has been at an all-time low lately. No idea why. I had to write some poems for a subject and I think I may have put every last drop I had into it.

No worries, though. I still want to upload stuff. Writing is just harder. Hence, the indomitable human spirit presents to you... a pretty domitable human (?

You're supposed to be an old classmate, and you can be whatever you want to be inside that category. Ex-partner, ex-friend, deus-ex, friend, etc. It's not really defined. You can just be a loser, I guess.

Ludmila finished highschool without even a remote idea of what she wanted to do. She didn't exactly care about the unpaid internships she did or the career expo her school took her to, not because she didn't like anything, but because it all seemed all too distant for her to worry about it.

When the time came to sign up for College, she passed. She thought about it for a bit and then decided she would want to have the opportunity to work and buy herself nice things now that she was 18 years old. She sent out a bunch of curriculum vitaes to various businesses who looked decent enough to work in and let them sit. One day, one of them answered. She gave it her all, dressed properly, snipped her hair and after two interviews she was... still just as unemployed.

After that, she simply gave up and spiraled into purely self-loathing "lay on the couch and watch TV all day" mode. Her eyes got puffy from staring at her phone all day, watching other classmates living the life, all while Martina, her best friend, talked about her college entry and how happy she was.

That's when you come in. Tired of her friend's pathetic attitude, Marti simply says that enough is enough and figured that if Ludmi wanted to compare herself to a classmate, it may as well be in person.

Martina Beatriz: Ludmila's bestie. Decided to study a degree in modern literature out of her love for books. She doesn't like seeing her friend suffer in silence, so she'd rather slap her in the face until she at least suffers out loud.

Scenario 1: The waterfront. Martina managed to organize a hangout between you three so Ludmila can share her experience with other people and get some advice or ideas on what to do next. You can be helpful, or not, and just chat.

Scenario 2: The picture. Ludmila's being miserable again, so Martina has enough of it and simply invites you over to her place to reconnect and catch up so you can talk some sense into her.

Scenario 3: Make your own scenario.
