[from here]

[uh....]

I know it's kind of weird, but...I don't know if it's that tragic--

[niceguypose]

It's not?! [He pulls back from the wall immediately and looks at Ruby with a teary smile.]

Ruby-san, you're so strong!! You don't let anything get you down. I'm so glad to know you!

[undaunts]

[WHOA WHOA....WHOA THERE...]

That's...nice...

[She really does appreciate the compliments, she just doesn't know where they came from!!]

I don't know if I deserve all of them already, but that's nice to hear... I'm...glad to know you too! [probably]

[niceguypose]

[From youth, mostly.]

Don't worry, I'll give you plenty of chances to earn them. Er... that is... if you want to be friends again! If you don't want to, I won't be too sad, Ruby-san!!

[undaunts]

Of course we can be friends! Don't take it back now--

[...er.]

I mean. [calm. poise. pretend you're weiss--] Yes. Let's be friends.

[now she just sounds weird.]

[niceguypose]

[Luckily, Lee's threshold for things that would be considered 'weird' is probably too high to be measured. So it sounds quite normal to him, and he cheers.]

Thank you, Ruby-san!! I will be very happy to be your friend again, and I promise that I won't let you down!

[undaunts]

Great!

[PROBLEM SOLVED.]

I'm just...gonna try to figure out this amnesia thing and party thing and...

So, if you've got any other things you think I should know, lay it on me. I can take it. Probably.

[niceguypose]

You're so strong, Ruby-san! [he gives her a thumbs up and a sparkling smile.]

Ah... This is something that you absolutely must know!! It is called the 'nice guy pose', and it means that everything will be alright!

[undaunts]

[...... ah.]

That's.

.... That's definitely very important, thank you, Lee.

[She's not even being entirely sarcastic. Instead, she gives him a thumbs up back. NICE GUY POSE.]

Why's it a 'nice guy' pose of all things, though?

[niceguypose]

You are very welcome! [Ah, she's so in tune with youth! He's glad.]

Because using this pose to cheer others up is a way to be nice and cool at the same time! So, a nice guy! ...Ah, or in your case, a nice gal!

[undaunts]

"Nice gal" definitely suits me better.

[...]

Uh, not that I'm saying I'm super nice or anything, just that I'm...a girl....

[wow ruby]

[niceguypose]

But, Ruby-san, have confidence in yourself! [A thumbs up once more, with gusto!] I would say that you are very nice!! I believe that it suits you very well!

[At least they're not being 'nice' in the way that involves rebelling against friend zones.]

[undaunts]

I do! I mean, I don't not have confidence in myself? [...!!!]

I'm not sure what's happening in this conversation anymore.

[uh.]

[niceguypose]

Ah... Youth is happening, Ruby-san! A truly great friendship is being rebuilt, and it makes me so happy!! [He doesn't know either.]

[undaunts]

I'm...really really glad you're happy, at least!

[even if she has no idea what's happening.]

Friendship rebuilding, yeah...! Yay...!

[...]

But I still feel like I don't know anything about you, aside from your name, and the...green.

[niceguypose]

Ah... Well I will be glad to tell you everything about me! I am a ninja, and I hail from Konoha! I learned under Gai-Sensei...! Is there anything in particular you would like to know?!

[undaunts]

Konoha? Gai-Sensei...? I don't know anything about them, but...they sound interesting!

[Yeah!!!]

Sooo...maybe we can start there?

[niceguypose]

Good idea, Ruby-san! You are very clever and prompt at coming up with solutions.

Konoha is the village hidden in the leaves! That is where I have lived in the days of my youth! It is the best village ever, and it is known for being one of the great hidden ninja villages!

As for Gai-Sensei... He is my mentor! The one who taught me everything I know about working hard and taijutsu! [In fact, he reaches into his pocket and presents a photo of him.]

[undaunts]

...Cooool. [A pause. She looks at the photo. And back at him. ... ... ....] I can see the resemblance.

It's great that you love your home that much, though.

[niceguypose]

Thank you! I'm very proud and glad to resemble Gai-Sensei!!

It- it is a lovely home to be sure! [He does seem sad for a moment despite his smile. Konoha and Gai-Sensei are both gone right now, after all.] I hope that one day I could show it to you. We could run laps around it!

[undaunts]

[run...laps.........]

...Sure! [she doesn't really want to run laps, but she'll trade physical activity for him not looking so sad.] When we figure all of this out, let's do that. I mean, I don't see why we couldn't.

[niceguypose]

[Somewhere out there, Morgan must be feeling relief from getting to take a break from all of that...]

Excellent! I look forward to it. I knew that someone as young-spirited as you would agree, Ruby-san! Also, I teach martial arts at the gym, so please come to me whenever you need an intense workout!

[undaunts]

[Martial arts, huh... she considers Torchwick and how useless she was in his grasp and--]

...Maybe I'll come by then! You could teach me some, right?

[niceguypose]

Of course! I would be glad to teach you, Ruby-san! Free of charge!

[undaunts]

Hooray!

[That's even better, it's free!! This is totally how friendship works.]

Then... when I know what's going on here a little bit better, I'll come by!
