Michael Graves/Dialogue

Overview **Dialogue** Gallery

## Comforting Martha

*Ellie Cooper:* "There you go. Better?"

*Martha Jennings:* "Y-yeah.. Thanks, you guys"

*Michael Graves:* "And what we talked about earlier - Look, Danny's my friend, But I'm not gonna lie - he can be a kind of an asshole sometimes. Don't even think of blaming yourself, alright? ... It's not because there's something wrong with you. Danny's just been through a pretty fucked up relationship himself"

*Tanya Kennedy:* "That doesn't excuse him, does it, though?"

*Michael Graves:* "Hmph. I'm just telling you why he did it, alright? I think I already said that he acted like an asshole"

*Tanya Kennedy:* "Oh, hey Will. Guys, that's my new friend Will"

### "Hey guys"

**Neutral/Smile/Surprise**

*This sounded natural*
*Michael Graves:* "Sup, man. We haven't met before, have we?"
*William:* "Yeah, I haven't been to school much since the start of the year"
*Michael Graves:* "Oh, got you. Well, nice to meet you, Will. Thanks for taking care of Martha just now"
*Martha Jennings:* "Yeah, thanks, Will. I really needed that.."
*They seem to have been talking about something else before you came.*

**Sad/Scared**

*This felt awkward*
*Michael Graves:* "Uh, hey ... You ok?"
*William:* "Um, yeah. I'm fine"
*Martha Jennings:* "Will's just taken me to the bathroom ... When I felt bad, you know"
*Michael Graves:* "Oh. That's cool. Thanks for that man ..."

**Angry/Disgust**

*You looked hostile for some reason*
*Michael Graves:* "... Something wrong, bud?"
*Martha Jennings:* "He's just not very good with showing emotions"
*Michael Graves:* "Oh.. Alright"
*He still looks a bit suspicious*
*Ellie Cooper:* "Oh, it's not big deal, Will. Everybody's like that sometimes, right, Big Graves?"
*Michael Graves:* "Um. Yeah, I guess ... Sorry, man, I'll just have to get used to that"
*William:* "It's alright"

*There's an awkward silence*

*Tanya Kennedy:* "Well, if everything's fine with Martha, I'll go get some air"

*Michael Graves:* "Hey, what? We just came here, come on"

*Tanya Kennedy:* "... I'll see you all later"

*Michael Graves:* "Tanya? Are you ignoring me? Come on. we barely hang out anymore, it's"

*Tanya Kennedy:* "Graves."

*Martha Jennings:* "..."

*Ellie Cooper:* "..."

End of dialogue. Tanya leaves the room.

**If player interacts again:**

*Michael Graves:* "Jeez, I don't get what's wrong with her"
*Martha Jennings:* "Mike.."
*Michael Graves:* "What? What are you looking at me like that for?"
*Martha Jennings:* "..."
*You feel it's time for you to leave*

## In the Hallway

*She's looking at a painting on the wall. There's a sun-drenched cafe with huge, seemingly glassless windows*

Michael enters the hallway.

*Michael Graves:* "Hey Tanya, what ab... Oh. Sorry, am I interrupting something?"

*Tanya Kennedy:* "Michael, please.."

*Michael Graves:* "What? What is up with you today? ... I don't think I've done anything to deserve that, have I?"

*Tanya Kennedy:* "..."

*Michael Graves:* "I see how it is. So you'd rather hang out with some weird dude you just met, huh? Instead of at least talking to your boyfriend? I'm just worried about about you, alright? [sic] Ugh"

*He leaves...*

*Tanya Kennedy:* "... Don't be mad at him. He actually cares about me, you know. That's the worst part."

*William:* "I'm not mad. I get it, I guess"

*Tanya seems very tired*

*Tanya Kennedy:* "That's a nice picture there, isn't it? It's Hopper, right? The Cafe, or something. Do you like it?"

*William:* "Yeah, it has a certain...feeling to it. Like, incredible lonelieness, but cozy at the same time. Almost like you've been there before"

*Tanya Kennedy:* "Yes, yes! That's what I was getting. ... Listen, um, Will, I think I'll go downstairs and get myself a drink now. Then, how about we go for a walk? I really need to cool down right now."

*William:* "Sounds good to me"

End of dialogue. Tanya leaves.

*Martha Jennings:* "Have you been to the principal's?"

"No. I know you have"

*Martha Jennings:* "What do you want, Will? I know you were the last person to see Tanya. That's all. Do you think, we don't know what was happening between you two?"

"Have you talked to the officers yet?"

*Martha Jennings:* "Why do you.."

**"ANSWER"**

*Martha Jennings:* "Y-yes! Yes I did, but I didn't tell them much yet. I think a certain detective wants to see me tomorrow."

"Name?"

*Martha Jennings:* "I-I don't know, I can only remember it's Asian.. Something like detective Yu, I'm not sure... Anyway, why do y..."

"It's really not good to spread rumours, Martha. That's a sign of a very, very bad friend"

*Martha Jennings:* "W-what? What are you talking about? Are you alright? Wh-what's going on, William?"

"Well, I'll tell you, what's going on, Mar...

"Calm down, Graves. What are you, a child? You do realise you'll get in trouble for violent behaviour again."

*Michael Graves:* "Well, that's new. What, are *you* gonna tell on me? Look buddy, I don't care much at this point. I'll fucking quit school if it means finding Tanya."

"... Would you go to court too?"

*Michael Graves:* "The fuck are you talking about?"

"The cops are here, isn't that so, Martha?"

*Martha Jennings:* "I talked to a police officer today, yes. They must still be here"

"She's lying about us"
*Martha Jennings:* "I'm not!!!"
"You know what we hate most in this company? We hate rats. Isn't that so, Graves?"
*Mike is confused*
*Michael Graves:* "Dude, quit it. Martha's a friend. She'd never lie to us. Right?"
*Martha Jennings:* "Of course I wouldn't! Why are you doing this, Will? I've seen you two at the party when.. you know. And I know Tanya went with you. And that's when you both disappeared. Why won't you tell us what happened?"
##### "I just don't think I can trust you, guys"

**Neutral**

*Michael Graves:* "Don't act tough now. You know, it's your fault. And I know that too. It's just a matter of time until I find out where she is."
"You won't"
*Michael Graves:* "Huh??"
"At least if you keep acting like this, you won't"
*Michael Graves:* "... Yeah. Maybe you're right. ...But even if you say so, nothing's stopping me from beating the shit out of you till you talk."

**Smile/Disgust/Surprise**

*Mike is pissed*
*Michael Graves:* "Are you making fun of me? You think this is fucking funny? Look, you freak, I'm giving you one last chance. If you don't..."
"Your stupid threats don't scare me, bro. You've been rambling about beating me up for the last five minutes, but all I see is bark and no bite"
*Michael Graves:* "H-huh?? Oh yeah, punk?"
*Martha Jennings:* "Big Graves, why are you listening to him? He's just provoking you. Will, do you *want* to get hurt? W-why are you like this?"
"Because he's just a chicken. He can't even..."
A fight begins between Lila and Michael. Michael wins.

**Sad/Scared**

*Mike is trying to compose himself*
*Michael Graves:* "Look, man, I know you've had your issues with showing emotions and empathy and stuff, and that we had our differences, but please. You know I love this girl. ... Please, tell me what you know, Will."
###### "I don't know anything"

**Neutral/Sad/Scared**

*Mike seems a little calmer*
*Michael Graves:* "...Really?"
"Yes. Look, Mike, I'm as worried as you are. I know you guys don't like me that much, but we are all in it together. We'll find Tanya. Don't worry about it, the Universe has better plans for you"
*Michael Graves:* "Don't give me that shit. I'm not forgiving you two for what you did behind my ba.. Wait, what did you say?"
"I said we'll find Tanya."
*Michael Graves:* "No, no after that. You said *the Universe has better plans for you*. You did, didn't you? That's what she always said, ... You are doing this on purpose, aren't you? F-ffucking freak."
"So is that how you plan on finding out where she is? By calling me a freak? I knew, I couldn't trust you, Graves."
*Michael Graves:* "W-what?? So you just tricked me, you fuck? You did, didn't you?"
"..."
*Michael Graves:* "Y-YOU"
Michael pushes Lila off the roof of the school.

**Smile**

*Mike is even more pissed now*
"Also, Mikey, talking about differences, I don't think the way you and your pathetic friends pick on me every time I stumble on you - I don't think "differences" is a good way to put it. Hehe. For all I know, Tanya may very likely be lying strangled in some ditch near school... Kinda like Malcolm, you know?"
*Martha Jennings:* "..."
*Mike looks delirious*
*Michael Graves:* "You.. You.. How d...dare you"
"Cute eyes he had, our little Malcolm. But I don't think I'll miss the kid. At the end of the day you got closer to Tanya because of his death, didn't you? I guess, you must have been over the moon when he d..."
*Michael Graves:* "I'LL KILL YOU"
*Martha Jennings:* "Mike, wait!.."
Michael pushes Lila off the roof of the school.

**Angry/Disgust/Surprise**

*It looked weird*
*Michael Graves:* "You're lying, aren't you? Say, Martha, what did I say immediately when Tanya introduced him to us?"
*Martha Jennings:* "Y-You don't have to do this, Mike"
*Michael Graves:* "I said - hope she doesn't hook up with that freak, didn't I? I could just smell it in you. Just in how you look and move around. How no one knew where you came from and how you had no friends. Tell me. Are you happy now?"
*Martha Jennings:* "Mike, stop it, we don't even know for sure he has anything to do with it!"
"..oh. Oh, Martha, but wasn't it you who passed the word around? Because of you everyone and their mothers knows about me and Graves' girlfriend."
*Martha Jennings:* "I..."
*Michael Graves:* "She wasn't talking to you, freak. And you don't have to be a detective to notice that something was wrong between you two. "
"She loved me more than you"
*Michael Graves:* "Shut up"
"And she had nice tits"
*Michael Graves:* "SHUT UP I SAID"
"She told me she's..."
A fight breaks out between Michael and Lila. Michael wins.

**Angry**

*Mike is getting more pissed*
*Michael Graves:* "What's with the face? You wanna go, bro?"
*Martha Jennings:* "Mike!"
*Michael Graves:* "I can crush you like a worm. You can't be serious, dude. I'll fucking crush you."
"Any follow up to your words?"
*Michael Graves:* "Are you for real? What, have you forgotten the last time you tried to fight me?"
"Do you mean that time when you saw me walking home with Tanya? Was that "trying to fight" in your eyes?"
*Michael Graves:* "It wasn't like that, freak. Don't try to make a victim out of yourself. *Martha is almost crying*"
*Martha Jennings:* "Will, please, I'm asking you, just tell him what you know.. He's not that bad, you have to understand how painful it is for him. I know you've had your difference, but..."
"Too bad"
Dialogue jumps to "I don't know anything"

**Smile**

*Mike tenses up.*
*Michael Graves:* "Yeah right you ass, as if I can't see you smiling. Look, man, I don't even give a fuck by now, just tell me where she is. I can't - I can't fucking deal with it..."
"Damn, Mike, are you ok? You know, I am really starting to think you really were not the best partner for Tanya. Even if I had information, I don't think it would be the best idea to share it with you, buddy"
*Mike is furious*
*Michael Graves:* "THE FUCK YOU JUST SAID??"
##### "I just don't think I can trust you, Mike"

Every reaction to every expression is identical to "I just don't think I can trust you, guys"

**Sad/Scared**

*Mike sees you're frightened. He relaxes a bit*
*Michael Graves:* "Who are you trying to fool here, bud? We all saw it."
"Martha saw it, not you"
*Michael Graves:* "Look, dickhead, I'm not sure why I have to explain this, but if it's her word against yours, I'd rather believe my best friend than a weirdo like you"
"You are making a mistake, Graves"
*Michael Graves:* "Look, man, I don't even give a fuck by now, just tell me where she is. I can't - I can't fucking deal with it."
##### "Martha's lying to you."

**Neutral/Sad/Surprised/Scared:**

*This didn't look confident*
*Martha Jennings:* "I'm not! What is your problem?"
"..."
*Michael Graves:* "Stop trying to confuse us, man. Really, the fuck're you doing this for? I'm telling you man, all we want is to find Tanya, I don't even give a shit if you.. You know. I need to know she's ok."
Dialogue jumps to "I just don't think I can trust you, Mike"

**Smile/Angry/Disgust:**

*Mike is even more stressed*
*Michael Graves:* "Stop picking on Martha, dickhead. It's not what this is about"
"What is it about then, Mike?"
*Mike is trying really hard to compose himself*
*Michael Graves:* "Look. Look. ... I'm not sure why you are trying to provoke me, but dude. Ok. I'll say it, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for f.. For treating you the way we've been treating you. I may have been over the top. But I really, *really* need this info"
Dialogue jumps to "I just don't think I can trust you, Mike"

**Sad/Scared**

*Mike notices you are scared of him. He feels more confident*

*Michael Graves:* "Just fucking answer, dude. I don't have time for this. Are you going to start talking or do you want it to be like last time?"

"..."

*Michael Graves:* "What's with the silent treatment? Spill it, freak. Or do you want to get beat? Huh, do you want it?"

#### "No"

**Neutral/Smile/Angry/Disgust/Surprise/Scared**

Dialogue jumps to **Neutral/Angry** fork of "How would I know that, Mike?"

**Sad/Scared**

*Mike relaxes a bit*
*Michael Graves:* "Well then, it's in your best interest to tell me, where the hell my girlfriend is. Did I express myself clearly?"
"Yeah"
*Michael Graves:* "Well where the fuck is she then?"
"... ... I-I don't know"
*Michael Graves:* "What was that?"
##### "I said, I don't know"

**Neutral/Smile/Angry/Disgust/Surprise**

Dialogue jumps to **Neutral/Angry** fork of "How would I know that, Mike?"

**Sad/Scared**

*Michael Graves:* "I'm not sure you're aware, William, but I happen to know about the little thing you did with Tanya behind my back"
"I.."
*Michael Graves:* "And the only thing keeping me from tearing *your fucking head off* is the fact that you know where she is. ...Now, do you know where she is? Tell me, buddy"
*Mike is now sure you're too scared to defend yourself*
