[gumchewer]

[The girl's gum chewing is simply obnoxious. Every couple of seconds she blows a large, pink bubble which she pops and, like the champion gum chewer she is, make sure that none of the gum sticks to her face.]

Are you ever going to explain why I'm not blue?

[No. Shut up and chew your gum.]

[She scowled, but continued chewing.]

You know, people are going to want to know.

Comments

[gumchewer]

Yes. It was.

[She blows another bubble and pops it in an attempt to keep up her appearance as a champion. Though she did take comfort in the fact that she wasn't blue.]

Good. So, why did you stop chewing gum?

[blueberried]

'Don't trust it. [Or any Wonka products, mind you.]

[gumchewer]

I don't chew Wonka gum either.

[Probably because the piece she's been working on for months isn't a Wonka product. Again, she blows and pops a bubble.]

[blueberried]

I know why you still got that, y'know?

[TIME TO MAKE YOURSELF DOMINANT BY BEING INTELLECTUAL. Violet, basic empathy isn't intellectual.]

But you can't be a winner if you already lost.

[gumchewer]

[Violet stares at the other her for a moment.]

I'm still a winner. You're just jealous because you're too afraid of gum to keep winning.

[Violet's ego is very wounded by that comment.]

[blueberried]

Don't you ever learn a lesson?!

[UGH, YOU ARE FRUSTRATING. People have called her dumb before, but at least she can see the obvious.

She is so close to rage-quitting this conversation, right now.]

[gumchewer]

The only lesson I learned was to not trust Willy Wonka and his candy.

Unlike you, I decided to keep winning instead of being a loser.

[She blows a gum bubble and pops it for emphasis.]

[blueberried]

Y'know what?! I don't care! You go and see where it gets you!

[She's stomping away because you are worse than Veruca. Complete rage quit because she's already won in her mind; this Violet's going to go an think she's a winner and get punished for it again and she would have told her so. This other her has already lost in Violet's eyes.]

[gumchewer]

It'll get me more trophies, that's what it'll get me. I can't see you getting anything!

[blueberried]

[She doesn't need to win things; her parents still ignore her and she got punished, so it's not worth it.

she can't think of a come-back You're not even worth her time.]

[gumchewer]

[Violet, seemingly unphased, continues to chew her gum. She is a bit shocked by what she could have been if she really had given up chewing gum and winning trophies for everything else she did. She wonders if the other her ever did regain her parents' favor like she did by winning numerous other trophies.]
