Friends? Really? YES! MAN IT’S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I’VE WRITTEN A FRIENDSHIP SCENARIO. I’m not opposed to romantic ones, but I just got jaded by the intense amount of relationship related stories.

INFP is sitting in his seat, deep in thought before class starts. ENFP blunders into the room with his books in hand, held in shambles with loose papers sticking out the sides. He saunters over to the seat next to INFP.

ENFP: Hey, is it cool if I sit here?

INFP: …

ENFP: Hello?

INFP: …

ENFP: *Waves hand in front of INFP’s face*

INFP: Huh?

INFP: Yes, hello.

ENFP: Haha, hey. Day dreaming there?

INFP: Um.

ENFP: It’s cool. I do that, too. Although, I usually end up doing it while I’m in the middle of something. Then I forget what I was doing! D:

ENFP: Anyway, is it okay if I sit here?

INFP: Here? Next to me?

ENFP: Yeah.

INFP: Um. Yeah, sure, that’s fine.

ENFP: Cool, thanks.

ENFP: Actually, one more thing. Do you think I could borrow a pencil just for this class? I was running late today.

INFP: …Yes.

INFP: Let me see if I… *sifts through bag*

INFP: *Looks up with wide eyes*

ENFP: What?

ENFP: Haha, did you forget yours, too?

INFP: I thought I brought some!

ENFP: Crap, dude, class is starting.

INFP: Uh, uh, uh, oh god.

ENFP: Hey, wait.

INFP: What?

ENFP: Check that out. Under seat in front of you.

ENFP: Someone left their crayons behind from the last class.

INFP: This is a statistics class. Why would they have brought crayons with them?!

ENFP: For us, bro. It’s a sign. Grab them, quick. Before anyone notices.

INFP: What if they come back for them!

ENFP: We’ll figure something out. But for now, that’s all we got.

INFP: Ehhhhh, okay fine. UnU;

INFP: *Reaches box with his foot and drags it out from under the seat*

ENFP: That was slick. Nice one.

ENFP: You know, we’re kind of like partners in crime.

INFP: I barely even know you, though!

INFP: And all we did was borrow someone’s crayons. O.o

ENFP: Ahahahaha, yeah but you gotta start somewhere.

ENFP: Trust me. We’ll be the baddest bosses around.

ENFP: I can see it now.

INFP: But… I don’t want to be a bad boss. D:

ENFP: Well, it’ll be between us.

INFP: *Mystified*

INFP: Either way, er, good call with the crayons. Sorry I forgot my pencils.

ENFP: Haha, dude, I forgot my pencils, too. You don’t owe me any pencils. Our school supplies are free from each other’s ownership. And apparently our own too, but you know.

Class has ended; INFP silently gets up and heads toward the door. ENFP scrambles his stuff together and catches up to him.

ENFP: Hey, wait up!

ENFP: I was thinking maybe you and I could study together for the test? Or maybe just get some lunch or something, I don’t know.

INFP: Sorry, I can’t. I mean, I just need to get away for a while.

ENFP: Oh, okay. No, that’s cool, I totally get it.

INFP: You’re very nice, though. It was nice meeting you.

ENFP: Yeah, for sure. See you around!

INFP: Yeah, maybe.

INFP: *Waves and starts on his way, walking the opposite direction*

ENFP (To himself): You’re kind of an enigma. I’m going to learn more about you. then we’ll be partners in crime for sure!

INFP (Thoughts): Wow, he was really friendly. Does he just talk to anyone out of the blue?

The next day, ENFP shows up earlier, seeing INFP walk in from the distance. He makes his way into the classroom and makes a B-line of INFP and his seat.

ENFP: Hey!

INFP: Oh! Hello, there.

ENFP: *Setting his stuff down by his seat next to INFP* Okay, so I’ve got a question for you.

INFP: I remembered my pencils today.

ENFP: No, not that, haha. But so did I!

ENFP: Okay, no, that’s not it, though.

ENFP: Yesterday, you said you needed to “get away for a while”, so I was wondering: are you, by any chance, an introvert?

INFP: *Eyes brighten up* Yeah, I am actually!

INFP: Do you research that kind of stuff, too?

INFP: Because you seem more like an extrovert to me.

ENFP: First of all, wow, you can tell that just from one encounter?

INFP: Haha, well, I’ve read a lot about it and have just kind of learned to pick up on that stuff? I mean, you just seemed like you were one. Am I right?

ENFP: Sort of. Here’s the thing.

ENFP: When you said that, yesterday, it got me thinking about that stuff. I remembered hearing about different people who manage, socially and everything and was like “oh yeah, introverts and extroverts and stuff”. I figured I would brush up on what they mean and what they don’t, you know. But I don’t really think I fit into either?

ENFP: Like, I can kind of be on both sides of the spectrum.

INFP: Oh, so you’re an ambivert!

ENFP: Is that what it is?

INFP: Yeah, yeah, it’s literally the in between. Although I feel like everyone is actually just an ambivert on different points on the spectrum. Like, I’m just on the more introverted side and you’re on the more extroverted? Because there’s still times when I get energized by conversation. Like right now, actually.

ENFP: And there’s still times where I feel like I’d rather just be alone.

INFP: Exactly!

INFP: Yeah, there’s actually a lot of variation within this subject just on its own that I think a lot of people overlook.

ENFP: Well, I think people overlook a lot of things, not just introvert-extrovert ideals! I mean, there’s some people that don’t even know what either of those are.

INFP: You’re exactly right.

ENFP: So, do you think you have more introverted or extroverted friends?

INFP: This is probably going to take a while to actually talk about.

INFP: There’s so much to personality, but even this tiny concept has so many layers. It’s like a strange combination of art and science. Which, even those two things I think have their own overlaps that people often times don’t see.

ENFP: Oh, so we probably shouldn’t get into this right now, then?

INFP: No, but, what about after? If your offer still stands about getting lunch, you know, we could do that and talk about this then?

ENFP: Sure! I also want to hear more about this science-art similarity. We could, like, trade ideas and everything.

INFP: After class, then?

ENFP: After class!
