Rain darkens the porch steps as Felix arrives from Gi William’s flower shop, a small paper bag tucked carefully in one hand. Mikey’s Mom remains nearby, leaving the door open while keeping the household’s boundaries clear.
Felix
Hey, Mikey. Can we talk for a few minutes? I brought something small, but this isn’t about clothes or picking some finished look.
Felix lifts the bag slightly, then lowers it again instead of offering it through the doorway. His usual playful energy settles into a more deliberate, respectful patience.
Felix
I want to follow through on the ordinary-friendship thing. Just talking, hanging out, and not turning everything into a project or a big dramatic event.
Mikey’s Mom watches Felix without interrupting. She does not invite him farther inside, but her steady posture makes it clear that a brief conversation is allowed under supervision.
Felix
Your mom can stay right there. I’m not asking you to sneak anywhere, and I’m not asking you to decide anything about outfits. I just wanted to check in.
Mikey's Mom
That is sensible, Felix. Mikey may talk with you for a few minutes here, as long as everyone respects the house rules.

“Does Mom disapprove of Felix?”
NO (Unlikely, rolled 54)
Felix
Thanks, ma'am. I’m glad you’re okay with me talking to Mikey. I really do mean it as ordinary friendship.
Felix’s shoulders loosen, and he keeps the paper bag tucked against his side. Mikey’s Mom’s approval is straightforward, without suspicion or a hidden condition.
Mikey's Mom
I have no objection to you being his friend, Felix. Just remember that friendship does not require sneaking, pressure, or turning every visit into a production.
Felix
Got it. No sneaking, no pressure, and no makeover ambushes. I can manage a normal conversation.
He glances toward Mikey, then waits instead of filling the silence. The open doorway remains an ordinary boundary, with Felix welcome to talk but not entitled to more.
Mikey's Mom
That is exactly the arrangement, sweetheart. You may talk for the few minutes I offered, and I will stay nearby.
“I admit to Felix that I have been spanked twice since I last saw him, for my bad behaviour.”
SUCCESS (Legendary Conversation, rolled -1)
Mikey
I’ve been spanked twice since I last saw you, for my bad behavior.
The admission sits plainly in the rainy doorway. Mikey’s Mom remains nearby, while Felix keeps his attention on Mikey instead of turning the confession into a joke.
Felix
Twice? Okay. Thanks for telling me straight, Mikey. I’m not going to make fun of you or spread it around.
Felix shifts the paper bag against his side and lowers his voice, treating the information as private. His expression stays concerned beneath the usual cheeky energy.
Mikey's Mom
That is the right response, Felix. His private family matters are not entertainment for anybody.
Felix
Yeah, ma’am. I’ll keep it private. I just want to be your friend, not another person making things harder for you.
