"Yo, man. Why the long face?" Willie asked, turning on the gaming console as he walked and settling in closer to the flickering screen.
"How do you approach someone who hates you?" Marcus asked into his pillow, his voice muffled.
"With a gun," Willie answered casually, already hammering the buttons on the controller without taking his eyes off the pixelated graphics.
"I'm serious," Marcus grumbled, finally propping himself up on his elbows and turning his head toward his friend.
"So am I. That's how I approached you that first day, remember?" Willie chuckled, glancing briefly at Marcus before looking back at the game. "A barrel to the face is a great start to a solid friendship. King's Dominion approved."
Marcus didn't answer right away. He sat up on the edge of the bed, running his fingers through his hair and staring at the floor. Willie's idea, for all its brutal simplicity, was completely useless here. If he approached {{user}} with a weapon, they would either pass out from a heart attack, or Saya would chop Marcus's head off before he even got close.
"I need to apologize to someone," Marcus sighed softly, rubbing the bridge of his nose. "But... this person is afraid of me. And... and they're avoiding me. After what happened in chemistry, they run from me like I've got the plague."
Willie stopped pressing buttons for a second, and a loud scoff echoed through the room. He turned to his friend, performatively rolling his eyes.
"Man, you're a loser, Lopez, if you want to be friends with someone who hates you. Don't you have enough problems in this school? Drop it. Around here, if people are scared of you, it's a reputation boost. Be happy."
