Zehn - [Voice]

[Well, Kurt is at home with nothing to do. He's finished his homework, goofed off in the Battle Dome, and isn't quite up to crashing in on his friends and seeing what they're up to. Apparently that's annoying. So he has only one alternative - watch movies he's already seen several times or be entertained by Luceti's populace. Which means getting a discussion going. Something simple and mindless to talk about.]

Okay, so everyone. You're on a boat and it shipwrecks on a deserted island. You can only take one thing with you from home. What is it?

... ohh, right, and if you have any kind of superpowers that would get you off the island, those don't count. Or for making new stuff and- actually, yeah, no superpowers at all. Just stuff you bring!

Wow, I don't know that I could top that.

Milton does have a very...succinct way of wording his feelings. [ because that's totally what he meant. yeah. ] Do you have a favourite poet?

Actually I ah... I really don't read poetry. [And he feels so uncultured now.]

Oh, you don't? [ uncultured? no, not at all! this just makes you teachable. anne's smile is audible. ] I'll simply have to share some of my favourites with you.

[Uncultured and perfectly happy with it.]

W-well, there is one poet I like?

Wordsworth?

[ ~~i freaking despise wordworth but i bet anne would love him. damn daffodils.~~ ]

The notable Dr. Seuss, a true master of words. In fact, he didn't even need to worry about using real words.

I don't think I know a Seuss. Is he part of the English canon?

I guess you could say that?

What, would you say, is his best known work?

Hm. I guess it would have to be a choice between The Cat in the Hat and How The Grinch Stole Christmas.

A...cat -- in a hat? He must be one of the metaphysicals.

Oh yeah, they're all very metaphysical.

You must let me borrow some of his works.

We could always drop by the library and find some.

I believe that would be a wonderful idea, Kurt. Are you free today?

[Considering he's wasting time asking people about a hypothetical situation?]

I'm free right now!

Then right now would be a wonderful opportunity, yes. Would you like to meet by the fountain?

[She'll hear a POP in the background ans a sudden shift of background behind his portrait.]

Already there!

You're quick! You'll have to give me a moment -- I need to find my coat. But I'll be there soon.

[ all that popping. it unnerves her and makes her more and more curious all at the same time. ]

No rush! I'll just hang out here.

[ so eventually anne comes striding along with her ridiculous many layers of outfit. ]

Every time that I see you, Kurt -- you always look so different.

[Just... brushing that off with a smile.]

I just get more attractive each time, yeah?

Well -- as convenient as it was to have a friend I could fit in my hand, I think I prefer you at this height. The small stature had been a bit distracting.

[ because apparently that is all she found distracting. the everything else? why, she is simply in awe. you're such an interesting boy to look at, kurt. ]

[Ahaha... yeah, that was weird. Girls are so interesting when you remember them being a hundred feet tall...]

Ahh, right. It's a lot easier getting stuff from the fridge at this size too.
