Take One

Me:  *puts away games, minding my own business*

Customer:  *walks up to the counter and grabs the Persona 4 Arena display case*

Me:  *hears the epic “Thou Art I” music from Persona 4 in my head as I think to myself*  Is this a bond I can form?  Is this person interested in the same thing as me?  Perhaps I can establish a strong social link-

Customer:  *puts case down and starts talking about Black Ops 2 instead with a friend*

Me:  *heartbroken*

Take Two

Me:  *puts games away*

Customer:  *walks in, grabs the Persona 4 Arena case*  Oh man I can’t wait, when does this come out?!

Me:  *hears that tranquil, peaceful, “You Maxed out your Social Link,” music*  A-August 7th

Customer:  Awesome!  I need to pre-order this

Me:  *big huge stupid smile*  OMG IT’S GOING TO BE AMAZING OMG OMG OMG!  *then stops, thinking*  shit that was too much…

Customer:  Oh god I know, right?!  Persona 4 is so AMAZING!!!  I love it so much it’s perfect!  

Bond established!  God I’m such a loser aren’t I?
