Hi, Lilly!

...Why would anyone want to vandalize Professor Olimar's office? That's weird.

[lazy_pikmin]

Oh, I just don't know! It truly pains me to see that there are such cruel people that don't care about ruining the lives of others.

[youresosweet]

Yeah! That's just mean! Sure, he's kind of boring and strict, but he's pretty of nice. Even if he did send me up front one time...

I wonder why he's not here though. I usually see him around... You guys really look up to him, huh? Oh. maybe Louie knows!

[lazy_pikmin]

'Look up to him?' I have no idea what you're talking about.

Thanks for that idea, though. I'll be sure to ask Louie about it.

Action post

[Olimar felt guilty having such little time to say goodbye to everyone. He figured that since his ship had a computer, that he would leave a message later. Where was he going? The space captain just wanted some time to himself, now that the Dolphin was in full function again.

He left a voicemail message on Lilly's cellphone, but it was unknown whether or not the boy had the phone on him at the moment.

"Hello? Hey, Lilliana, it's me. I'm so sorry for not telling you sooner, but I'm going to be away this weekend. I can assure you that it won't be a long trip, and I will be back in no time! If there's anything you need to let me know, call me back, or you can leave an email. I miss you, and tell your brother and sisters that I miss them too."]

[Unfortunately, Lilliana didn't have the clarity of mind to check his phone before he left. If he had, this entire thing might have been avoided. He checked it now, though, and hearing the sound of Olimar's voice filled him with hate and anger. He did his best to repress it, though, before calling him back. No sense in scaring him off, after all.

"It's SO good to hear from you again, Olimar. I just got back from your office, in fact, looking for you. I'm glad you're okay. I wouldn't want anything terrible to happen to you before I get a chance to see you. I hope you come back REAL soon, Olimar. I'll be waiting for you."]

Still a phone post doop doop

[leadthemalong]

[Oh... whoops, Olimar can't quite tell what's wrong. He just responds in his usual tone.]

Lilly? Greetings! I apologize for worrying you. I promise this trip will be short. There are just some... things I need to take care of this weekend.

[...Why did he call him Olimar? Hrm... Well, Lilly was more than free to call him that.]

Re: Still a phone post doop doop

[lazy_pikmin]

...Things. You just leave, without even thinking to mention it to anyone, and you won't even say why?

[snowypoison]

[Something was going on with Lilly. He wasn't sure what, he wasn't sure why, be he just knows it isn't good]

Hey... Lilly, are you alright?

[He's very concerned about his brother. After all, that's what siblings do right? They should help each other!

... Right?]

[lazy_pikmin]

Oh, no need to worry Thaddeus. I'm doing fine. Better than ever, in fact! You've been well too, I trust?

I forgot to mention this is action post derp

[snowypoison]

Me? I'm fine. But, you look -I don't know- different. Like really upset or something?

Something bad happened?

[Because really, Lilly, you of all people should know that Thad is stubborn when things are suspicious]

Re: I forgot to mention this is action post derp

[lazy_pikmin]

I have no idea what you're talking about, Thaddeus. I'd hardly call myself upset.

Something bad? No, nothing that I can think of. Unless you consider someone ransacking Olimar's office bad.

[monotreme_101]

Someone vandalized Professor Olimars office!? That's terrible... maybe I should go clean it up before he gets back... or at least whatever I CAN get cleaned up. How bad is it?

[lazy_pikmin]

Oh, it's VERY bad. The door has been kicked down, papers have been torn up, the computer was destroyed, the windows were broken, holes have been put in the walls... I could go on, but I think you get the idea. I don't think there's a single thing in one piece!

[monotreme_101]

...w... wow. THAT bad? Who would do such a horrible thing to such a nice teacher?? That's really just.... terrible.

[lazy_pikmin]

Well, maybe he deserved it? Maybe he did something to someone, and they were getting revenge on him? Maybe he's not a nice teacher after all?

This is just speculation, of course.

[bulbmin_glutton]

... What's vandalized?!

[lazy_pikmin]

Hojita, dear sister! How nice to see you again.

Vandalized. Trashed. Ruined. Destroyed. Broken into a million tiny pieces. Get it?

[bulbmin_glutton]

Hi Lilly!!

...?!

Who would ever want to do that?! '^'

[lazy_pikmin]

Oh, I just don't know! Someone who really hates Olimar, I suppose.
