So my original version had CJ go on a rant, but years later I pretty much had a new drection for her. basically, this page came out of my therapy sessions during a particular horrid time where funds were extreeeemely low and stres extremely high ha ha haaaa
The good news is once it passes I did indeed buy me some video games and I did indeed play them. yipee

Cj looks genuinely apologetic. "Sorry, I wasn't trying to say that saving up is stupid or anything... I just get so mad, like... you don't always have t' have a reason to want something. Don't hold yourself back to seem humble for bragging rights!"
A customer is in the background, apparently evesdropping as he picks up reduced goods.
"You also have to admit that buying the "good treats" is what it is. Jus' good shit!"
The customer sheepishly puts the product down and leaves,
CJ leans on the counter and looks Ash straight on, as he averts his attention away.
"Ok Ash. If you weren't thinking about saving up, what would you get for yourself?"
Ash flops sheepishly as he leans against the counter side. "erm, well, i wouldn't mind getting some new video games, but they are so expensive these days and-"
CJ interupts. "If you want some new games so much, why don't you buy one? You can save AND still dedicate something for yourself. I won't save as much as you did, but I'd have more games! Who "wins" then?"
She turns to you ther eader and grins. "Me. It's me."
