"Wakey wakey, ye donkey." Lino has been continuously poking a very, VERY tired Alexis, trying to get her up. He's been doing this for a full 5 minute now.

".........." No response. She just ignored him.
He lets out a frustrated grunt, facepalming. "Ya got a lotta things to do, kiddo. Get up." His hand feels like it's about to have painful cramps sooner or later, yet still persistent to get her to ATLEAST open her eyes. He feels somewhat devastated to have to be babysitting a child that has succumbed to such a level of laziness.... atleast, that's what he thinks.

"If you don't move a single inch right now, i'm going to possess and corrupt your phone's godDAMN data." Lino scowled at her, threatening her was practically a last resort to get her moving.
Hearing this, Alexis finally decided to move..............and by move, she only fidgets her finger. Lino sighed in shame. He's tried everything. Snitching, bribing, a lengthy speech, etc. Nothing seems to work now.
"Tch...." Lino was about to give up completely, but... he felt this feeling. No matter how much he wants to, he just can't let this girl do whatever she wants. He felt this burst of emotions. A mix of protectiveness, righteousness and absolute anger.

"....What and literally WHY do you ALWAYS act like a lazy FUCK? You know you got a shit TON of things to do, but screw it, you lay around like a pig in a puddle of mud, RELAXING without a single ounce of CARE." For once, Lino was actually legitimately angry.
"What makes you so engaged to do absolutely NOTHING? are you just simply so self-absorbed? Do you simply not care about everybody and everything else, other than yourself?
I can't judge a book by it's cover, but you're an book i'm still reading. I can't finish reading, i would have been able to finish reading but i can't, because YOU keep hiding your own pages from me, tearing yourself from your own case.
The only thing i can do is make assumptions or wait for you to open up, which you never seem to want to do. You open up with HIM, why not ME?" Lino was about to say something again, but..

".....Don't even bring him into this."
Alexis finally said a word. Lino was caught completely off-guard. Her voice was intimidatingly stern, she might have been.. infuriated.
"Listen.. i'm merely telling and asking you this so you could just.. THINK about what you need and DON'T NEED to do." Lino attempted to ease up the sudden tension. Right as she spoke, it felt like the entire room's atmosphere has changed. It felt almost.. frightening.

"So.. what you're saying is that i SHOULDN'T open up to Isaac, but only open up to you, huh?" Alexis opens up her eyes, they meet his. Lino thought he'd be happy to see her atleast look at him, but it wasn't even.. relieving to see her open her eyes. A part of him wishes she kept them closed.

"What makes you say THAT? that's freaking bull." Lino quickly backed up himself, rejecting her conclusion. He tried to make himself look fearless, but.. really, he's probably crapping his pants if he had an anus and a pair of edgy ripped jeans.
"...Hah." Alexis laughed. It was a bit strange for a time like this for him.

"...Tell me. Who's the one selfish right now?
You.. or me?
You, who clearly cared more of yourself than what i love by telling me things that are not even necessary for my own needs in any way.
Or me? judge me by your own perspective."

Lino was reluctant to answer her question.
"What did you say? "Clearly... cared more about myself"? Masya, i've been the one who told you that you needed to become better first, why would you assume i'd care more about MYSELF?"

"Because you clearly want me to become better for yourself. You want me to become.. diligent with practically everything YOU like. But the things you like are not the things i NEED to be diligent on. Didja seriously think i'd brush one single strand of hair one at a time? what, ye got a hair fetish?" Alexis was fighting back with more fire than he is, yet.. she always gets a chance to make silly assumptions that actually eased up the tension quite a bit.

"What the FUCK, heck NO. That's fucking WEIRD." Lino was genuinely disgusted. "Heck, it's for you to be distracted from things that bother you, y'know? like, you got nothing to do and-"

"My point still stands, brother. I always have things i need to do." Alexis was unfazed this whole time. She didn't need to yell at the top of her lungs for her words to get inside anybody's thick skull. They were like bullets puncturing a human's body, bones and muscles, and that bullet stays there until you take it out yourself, with no surgical tools to use for it.

"..And what are these things you "always need to do"?" Lino was starting to get a little... suspicious. "Let me guess.. spending time with your little lover, huh?" he said, mocking her.

Alexis raised an eyebrow. Lino was unsure what she was trying to express. Anger? Curiosity? regardless, he was getting a little confident.
"What, you think spending time with your shitbird pothead lookin' ass is more important than actually putting effort in any of your homework? Do you CARE about your future? your dream job?"

"................." Alexis was suddenly silenced.
Lino laughed hysterically, thinking he broke her our of her comfort zone.
"So.. that's how it is, huh? All of these unfinished work..." Lino pointed at all of her unfinished business. Unfinished homework, unfinished art, unfinished chores, unfinished.. everything.
"...just for a fuckboy you got feelings for? That's.. inexcusable, Masya. Think about it!'" He started giggling, and holded up an arm.
"Look at all of these! These are steps you need to take in order to make it to the top, to be able to be successful and get a goddamned diploma, to be able to get a niceass job for you to support yourself!" He was grinning widely.
"You wanna be an animator? go finish your art project. You wanna get a diploma so you could get a job? finish your homework. You wanna keep everything in your house together? finish your damn chores!" His tone of voice is almost maniacal, his confidence was getting the better of him.

Little did he know, Alexis was... completely and utterly
MAD.
He was unable to see the spark of energy overflowing in the tip of her finger, and she was able to summon three shards, slowly approaching Lino from above.
"So, Masya, what do you think now? Is Isaac more important than, oh i don't freaking know, ACTUALLY doing something productive?" Lino mocked her once again.

".....You... absolutely DISGUST ME."
The shards zoom in closer to Lino, to the point where he could see them. Lino was surprised and backed away, trying to avoid them at all cost.

"Masya, what're y-" He was cut off by Alexis, suddenly standing up and towering him. She was far bigger and taller than he is. It was.. terrifying for him.
"You of ALL PEOPLE should know that i put priority to things that actually make ME happy. Nobody makes me more motivated than he does, because HE never rushes me to do whatever things i do. You, in the other hand, just push me to do things so relentlessly, that i become utterly apathetic by how much you, and all people have high expectations. Why do you always push me so hard to be the BEST? I don't NEED to be the best, as long as i pass, i'm HAPPY and i still have a CHANCE.
He's my only source of genuine happiness, it would be no surprise for me to put him in my number one priority. But.. apparently, it is a surprise to you. Why? because you don't seem to understand me NOR him." She was crying at this point. Streams of tears run down her cheek, but her voice stayed stern as if she wasn't sobbing. She looked away from him, her finger sparking wildly with energy that is unable to be seen by humans.
"...Why do you think i like him? i love him for a good damn reason. You should know by now that i never like anybody who are utter dumbfucks who never care more about how i feel, especially YOU."

"..Masya... Please, atleast.. don't get violent. S-stay calm, please..?"
Lino shifted from a confident lil' guy to a fearful, timid runt. He even mimics Isaac's voice and even the way he talks in order to calm down the angry girl.

"You make me apathetic, you make me DEPRESSED. you of all people should know that rushing somebody does NOTHING good. We've know each other far longer than i've known Isaac. You were there with me since i was little, i was growing up practically WITH you. Yet, you never understood how hurt i was this whole time? That ITSELF is inexcusable."

"Masya.. i-i uh..... i'm... i just thought you'd.. be able to tank practically any.. y'know, things that people say. You seem so desensitized by even the harshest insult or criticism. I didn't.. know." Lino was actually genuinely guilty. His voice was shaky.. unable to mimic Isaac's voice anymore because of how painful it was to speak and modify his voice. He was.. sorry.

"Masya, i uh.. i'm.."

Once again, Alexis.. or should i say, Masya, cuts him off.
"Save it for later. I got work to do."

She then walks off into her room, slamming the door and locking herself in. Leaving a guilty Lino all alone.
