Lucas walks through Hill Zone (rotted) and encounters Alice

Alice: hey, you look lonely

Lucas: huh? oh, uh... what's with the teapot

Alice: It's Playtime. You can join if you want.

Alice sets down a little tea set on a Wooden Table. She's smiling faintly

Lucas stares awkwardly, scratching his head.

Lucas: You mean... like a Tea Party

Alice: Yep! Pretend Tea, we can be normal for a while

Lucas: ...Normal sounds good

They sit at the table

Alice "pours" invisible tea for Lucas

Lucas plays along, holding the tea in his oversized Tails vessel hands.

Lucas: slurp - wow, best tea I've ever had,

Alice: hehe, your funny

Lucas (smiling, softer): Thanks, I try

Slience for a beat. Alie looks down, fidgeting

Alice: ...Do you think, you know, we'll ever get out of here?

Lucas: I don't know, but I think if we stick together, the maybe.

Alice: Then I'm gald you came to my tea party

Lucas gently pats Alice's shoulder.

Lucas: Me too, kid. Me too

Fin.
