A/N: Fairly new to the FFX/X2 game world, so I apologize if I get anything wrong. Feel free to correct me
I like trying new styles of writing. This is strictly dialogue. I apologize if I cause any offence by the characters' attitudes in the story; I don't mean to; they're kids.

"I don't think you look gay."
"Who said I looked gay?"
"No one. I just think you don't."
"So what's that supposed to mean?"
"You look straight."
"Because I am?"
"Of course you are. I never said you were gay."
"But you said I 'look' straight."
"Maybe you're bendy."
"I'm not bendy."
"It's okay to be bendy."
"Except when you're not."
"Why are you getting so angry then?"
"I'm not gettin' angry!"
"Well, you're yelling at me."
"That wasn't yellin'."
"That was talking with an exclamation mark, yeah-huh."
"Kid, you're being weird."
"But at least I'm not."
"So you're saying I am?"
"Weird? Maybe. Bendy is kinda weird."
"Why can't I just be straight?"
"So you admit you're not straight?"
"I am straight."
"So why are you asking?"
"You tricked me."
"You slipped."
"I didn't slip; there's nothing for me to slip about."
"About being bendy."
"I'm not bendy. Get it through your stupid brain."
"You don't have to be such a meanie. I thought gay men are happy."
"I'm not gay either."
"So what are you?"
"What do I look like?"
"Lesbian."
"… You have to be a girl to be lesbian."
"Ohhh. Opps. Um. Hmm…"
"Ssstraight?"
"Sometimes. Today you look bendy."
…
"Ow! What was that for, meanie!"
"Now look at me again – without leaning your head to one side."
"Hey! You're straighter now!"
"Told'ya."
"But just because you look it, doesn't mean you are."
"Ah, what do you want me to say, Kid?"
"Say something straight."
"I think you're pretty."
"Only gay guys use the word 'pretty'."
"I think you're hot."
"No, it's just the sun."
"Forget it, I'm leavin'."
"Nonono! Don't go!"
"I can't talk to you. You don't believe a word I say."
"I believe that you think I'm pretty."
"Yeah, so?"
"I think it's nice. You're never nice to me."
"That doesn't mean I'm gay… or bendy."
"I never said you were."
"Then why do you keep askin'?"
"Because I want to make sure."
"I already told you; I'm straight."
"But I have to really, really make sure."
"Why?"
"Pops said I can't marry a gay guy."
"You… want to marry me?"
"… You don't want me to?"
"I – uh… I dunno. Don't you have to like me first?"
"I like you."
"But you said I'm not nice."
"But when you are, you make me feel very special."
"I don't mean to."
"But you do."
"B-But aren't there other nice guys for you?"
"… Why can't it be you? Is it because I'm a girl?"
"What – no. I like girls."
"Then you just don't like me?"
"I like you."
"Then you'll marry me? Really?"
"I – uh…. Are you sure?"
"… Never mind then. You can just say 'no' if you don't want to, you know."
"I want to."
"Are you lying?"
"Just a little bit."
"Why don't you like me?"
"I do."
"Why don't you want to marry me?"
"I do."
"Then why 'just a little bit'?"
"Because… Some other guy might be nicer to you when we grow up."
"But I'll still like you."
"No, you won't."
"Even if he looks straighter, I'll still like you."
"No you won't."
"Even if he buys me a chocobo, I'll still like you."
"No you won't."
"Even if he has THREE eyes, I'll still like you."
"…Even four?"
"Even FIVE!"
"…You're still little, Kid."
"So?"
"You'll forget about me when we're bigger."
"So marry me, and I won't."
"..Okay."
"Really?"
"Yeah. But not now. Later. When we're grown up."
"Like 13?"
"Yeah."
"I like that."
"I like it too, Kid."
"…"
"Why're you looking at me like that?"
"I don't think you look ugly."
"I don't think so either, Kid."
