Haven't done a shout-out in a while. This one goes to PrankK1ng. I had actually planned to use this adage next before I even got your last review, but I had honestly forgotten about the 'two wrongs don't make a right' adage which is a brilliant classic that will probably be used soon enough.
Chapter 21: Can't Teach an Old Dog
"Eri, you gotta forgive me!"
"Beat…you hurt me. You hurt me really badly…and your idea of making it up to me is taking me to an animal shelter?!"
"Look, I did a lot of thinkin' and I know I was wrong. I asked Rhyme how to make it up to ya and she told me that it was hopeless. That it was too late for me to change. That you can't teach an old dog new tricks."
"Beat…"
"I'm tryin' to change for ya, Eri…and I figure, I dunno, if I can teach one of these mutts somethin' new, maybe I have the ability to change too."
"That's so sweet…but these things take time…"
"I know! That's why I've been coming here every day for the last two weeks to train the oldest dog here!"
"Eww, is that him?"
"Yup! That's Scooby! Watch everythin' I've taught him."
"Okay…"
"Sit, Scooby!"
"…"
"Shake hands, Scooby!"
"…"
"Roll over, Scooby!"
"…Beat, he's not doing anything."
"Wait, I got this, yo. Play dead, Scooby!"
"Oh, wow! He dropped really fast!"
"Right? I knew he'd remember at least one of these commands!"
"Wait…oh, God…I think he's actually dead…"
"S-stop jokin' around! Wait…oh, damn…no! No! NOOO!"
"Beat…"
"NO, SCOOBY, NOOOOO!"
