You know, it never fails to amaze me how much you can manipulate people with honesty.

So, the next phase of this plan is to move on to Juliet. We need to make her more amenable to Romeo's suggestion when it comes. Therefore, we need to give her a similar suggestion. If Romeo finds us doing that, he may get mad, which is why I will ask for permission to pull off my manipulations on her once he makes a response. I intentionally made the suggestion to him something that our previous suggestions to Juliet would support, so the advice we give her now won't be different enough for her to expect that we are up to something.

Um, I can kinda tell what you were aiming for there with that comment, Wacky, but you came across, at least to me, as overtly threatening. I dunno if that was such a good idea...

He needed some cold hard truth. I wasn't about to just tell him that he and Juliet "belonged with each other" or some other overly romanticized garbage. He needed to know that his and our lives are on the line here. Maybe he needs to be scared. Maybe we all need to be scared. This is serious business.

Unfortunately, you are talking to an overly emotional teenager, so instead of scared you are probably going to get pissed off and rebellious.

Yes, I'm a teenager too, though older than he is. I'm just REALLY cynical and pragmatic.

I wouldn't be surprised if he responded to that with a "You want me out? Then get me out". But it's done, so all we can do is wait for a reaction.

Seeing as the post you responded to is calling us out on what he CORRECTLY has realized are manipulations to prepare him to be sent back to Verona in a rather upset tone, no I don't think he will be. I hope I'm wrong. I REALLY hope I'm wrong.

There are reasons besides just a romantic relationship or even wall stability for why them staying together might be a good thing - one way or another this is all going to come crashing down on their heads in the end and the only people within reach who they can really rely on are each other.

I'm pretty sure Romeo has us sussed now about the wanting to send him back thing, so coming clean is probably wise...

I already had a long chat with him last night. Looks like we should just sit back and hope for the best, though if we want we could try to nudge Juliet in the right direction.

There Once Was Couple Of Two.
Who Fell Over The Wall And Joined A New School.

I'll just get my brother to meet him in off topic. That should keep him busy for a LONG time.

I've dealt with damage control. Hopefully this doesn't set us back too much. But yeah, the last thing we need is an overly emotional Juliet.

Oh trust me, I've got a damn good idea of the damage. I'm already working to counteract it. Look kiddy, if you want to be an immature prick, go somewhere else.

Now, from now on, ignore the troll until he starts acting like someone with a positive IQ score.

This Is Merely My Revenge. A Long Time Ago. I Had The Job Of Entertaining A Man Of A Very High Order. If I Didn't Impress Him, I Died. It Didn't Matter Though. As Long As I Am Dead The Joke Continues. Well Now The Joke Is On All Of You. My Misery Was The Entertainment Of Those Idiots, And Now, They Get To Be My Joke.

So What If The Couple Break Up. Let's Keep Things Interesting. Maybe Juliet Will Go Back Through The Wall, Alone.
