Hi
Raúl!
Do
you wanna play some Soul Calibur?
Sure!
I mean, yeah, sure.
Are you okay?
Caylean
What-makes-you-say-that?-nothing's-wrong-wow-that's-a-nice-shirt.
Maybe
I'll come back later...
The
Edge
Hey
Edge, wanna get in some Soul Calibur before dinner?
*looking away*
Get in what?! I didn't say anything about how I wanted to get anything!
Caylean
...
LATER.

Echo
..and
Raúl and Edge did it too! Why have all the men on this Bus started acting
so weird around me?
Uh
oh.

Well, to be honest, I haven't gotten there yet, either.
But I'll tell you one thing I do know: How to repel men with my venomous
personality.
*sigh*
Caylean! Where are you? We need to have a talk.
Two
of 'em!
Sage!
She's
got boobs!
I
don't know what to do. Caylean's sixteen now. She's practically a woman, and
I think all the guys around here have realized that she---
THE
NEXT DAY.
But
I do understand about growing up, and realizing that you're not a child anymore
and you have to interact with others like an adult.
Actually,
no, I don't...
But listen to me.
I know what it's like to have to deal with men who gawk at you.
What's
up?
Well
yes, but on the other hand, David Bowie is taking you to the prom...
No
kidding. Most girls get anxious about having to shower with the other girls
after gym...but I have to share a shower with Cthulhu!
Caylean,
I want you to know that I understand that it's difficult to be a teenage girl,
on this Bus...
Echo
Like, if a man tells you he likes the way your hair looks, just say "Whatever.
As if you really mean that."
And if a man ever asks you if anything is wrong, or if he can help, just
be like, "Get out of my face, creep!"

See,
if you don't want men leering at you and trying to chat you up, all you have
to do is have a nasty attitude, and act prematurely jaded and bitter.
Go
get Raúl to do it.
...
Actually,
I need someone to take me to the store so I can buy tampons.
Well, I hope this was helpful.
And if you ever need anything, you just ask me, and I'll do whatever I can,
okay?
...
That
way, it doesn't matter how attractive you are. Men will leave you alone because
they can't stand to be around you.
