Hey everyone! I'm back with another oneshot! This one will be kind of an experiment compared to my other ones. This one's all dialogue, so you'll have to fill in their facial expressions, movements, and whatnot.
Here we go!

"Well?"
"Well what?"
"Are you going to apologize?"
"Me? You're the one who almost got her soul trapped in that crystal for the rest of eternity!"
"I had it under control."
"You were almost killed."
"Because you didn't hold on to the lever."
"Because you were being attacked!"
"I had it. Under. Control."
"It sure didn't look like it from where I was standing."
"Oh, because you have such great vision? I told you to just hold the lever and everything would be fine!"
"What's with you!? I just threw myself in danger to help you and I don't even get a 'thank you'?"
"I said not to worry about it! I have a magic wand! I could've taken them out if you just did what I asked!"
"You were losing that fight!"
"That doesn't mean you can just butt in!"
"So, what? You don't want me to come help you when you're in trouble?"
"No!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Remember what I said after the Blood Moon Ball? About how I didn't need a hero?"
"..."
"I'm fourteen. And soon I'll be fifteen, but you… my parents, everyone at school… why do you all think I can't handle myself?"
"I'm just trying to help."
"I don't need help! I need a friend. Not a hero. I've said this before."
"Why can't you just be happy that I saved your life?"
"I didn't need saving in the first place! I could've handled it!"
"I wanted to help!"
"I had it. Under. CONTROL."
"..."

"..."
"What are you- hey! Give me my scissors back!"
"..."
"Where do you think you're going!?"
"Home."
"..."
"Here's your scissors."
"We came this far and you're leaving NOW?"
"You said you don't need help."
"I didn't mean-"
"You're fourteen. You can handle it yourself, right? You've got a magical wand."
"That's not-"
"You think you can do this, fine. I'm sorry I cared about you and didn't want to watch you DIE. I forgot that you're a magical princess from another dimension, but hey, next time, I'll be sure to just sit back and watch you get hurt!"
"..."
"..."
"Marco…"
"I'll see you at home."
"Marco, I'm… sorry…"
"..."
"I'm sorry, Marco."
"..."
"I just… thought I could handle it… Yeah, I got hit and a little beat up, but I was still putting up a good fight… but then you jumped in."
"I-"
"You put yourself in danger..."
"..."
"And then they tried to attack you…"
"..."
"And… they got you pretty good, didn't they?"
"Argh! Hey…"
"...Look at you… You're hurt… You don't have a magic wand. They weren't after you. You could've stayed out of it… You didn't have to do that… but you did. You were… trying to protect me…"
"..."
"And… you got hurt because of me…"
"Star-"
"I said I don't need a hero. I don't want someone to protect me when I'm in danger. I don't want someone to get hurt because of me. But that's what heroes do…"
"..."
"...I don't want you to be my hero… I don't want you to get hurt. I don't want to see you… die… I want you to be my friend… To be with me… to be with me for as long as possible..."
"..."
"But you were my hero…"
"..."
"And you got hurt because of me. And it's my fault. All because I was being stupid. And I w-wouldn't listen to you. A-and you tried to warn me but I didn't listen. I w-wanted to prove I could do it and I-I was being selfish and… and…"
"Star…"
"I'm sorry, Marco… I'm sorry…"
"..."
"...!"
"You're not selfish."
"..."
"It's not your fault that I'm hurt."
"..."
"It's because I'm your friend that I came after you."
"..."
"I'm not a hero. I'm just… me."
"..."
"And because I'm me, I wanted to help you."
"..."
"And, boy, am I lucky to be me. Otherwise I wouldn't have met you in the first place."
"...Marco?"
"Star, we've always had each other's back. That's what friends do… and you… you mean a lot to me."
"..."
"I won't let you go through anything alone, okay?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...Ahem! Anyway… w-we should, uh… probably get going. Um… w-which way is it?"
"..."
"..."
"...That way…"
"Heh… great! Let's go…"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...I mean a lot to you?"
"Star, can we… not… talk about that?"
End. I find that reading just the dialogue can be more interesting because everything else is up to your own mind and it makes it more involved, but if you didn't like that, feel free to tell me and I won't do it again!
Anyway, have a good day everyone!
