Chapter 9 page 12

We start by insulting each other. *rude gesture* Then we have a feud and we FIGHT! Then we become buddies
That’s how it works. People love it! It’s called a story arc!
Emmie: But it still sounds mean when you know you’re doing it.
Can’t you be buddies from the beginning?
Yùzǐ: I’m retired now, so we can do that.
Emmie: Good! That’s much nicer!
Author’s notes: Speaking of nice things, my lovely friend Rosanne is fundraising for cancer care and research! If you make a donation above $15, she’ll draw you a wonderful MS Paint doodle based on a prompt from you! They’re really impressive. For details and to see the art other people have gotten so far, take a look at her Twitter thread!
