[ Scott has an important question to ask the network today. He's just going to turn the feed on. Look at his face. ]

Are there really six Star Wars films?

Were they good?

[had_not_lived]

They weren't bad? I mean, I enjoyed them, I guess-- they're a little too fast?-- but I don't understand why everyone talks about them all the time.

voice;

[affectioning]

What do you mean, fast? Like, hard to follow?

voice;

[had_not_lived]

I suppose so? It's just-- things are always happening and changing, you never really get to look at anything.

It might just be me, I feel that way about a lot of films here.

voice;

[affectioning]

What's your favorite film?

voice;

[had_not_lived]

I'm more of a reader, honestly.

voice;

[affectioning]

[ Maybe that's why. It's a different experience. ]

What's your favorite book?

voice;

[had_not_lived]

[He's just old fashioned. Literally.]

A Midsummer Night's Dream. Which is a play, of course, which is really what I like best.

voice;

[affectioning]

It's Shakespeare, right? I've never read it but I want to.

voice;

[had_not_lived]

Right. One of the comedies-- I don't like the tragedies as much.

We used to put on plays, but it's been a while since I've organized one. Maybe if the curses really do settle down...

voice;

[affectioning]

You should! I'd come see it. We don't do too many plays at school. [ So much mysterious death. ] But, I went to a weird band concert.

voice;

[had_not_lived]

We've done a bunch! And we've got space to put on one anytime we like, really, it'd just be a matter of getting actors and choosing a play and-- well, it's a lot of work but we've done it before. I wish we had anyone else who wanted to direct them, that's all.

What was weird about your concert?

voice;

[affectioning]

[ Really? That's the question you ask? ]

The choice of songs were just really [ ... ] violent. Loud. It wasn't fun to listen to. And it was old.

voice;

[had_not_lived]

[It's weird to describe a concert as weird, how's he not supposed to be curious?]

It doesn't sound like it would be. Fun, I mean.

voice;

[affectioning]

[ He didn't think it through? ]

It wasn't. But, it ended early.

voice;

[had_not_lived]

Oh.

[That's... Good? Maybe he doesn't want to know anymore. Something seems odd about the conversation.]

Well, anyway, I'm sure you'll hear about it, whenever we start working on another play.

voice;

[affectioning]

[ Doesn't it, though? ]

Awesome. Oh, I'm Scott.

voice;

[had_not_lived]

Neil. It's nice to meet you.

voice;

[affectioning]

You too! Do you want to come to movie night, also?

voice; ejdhefrerf now in the right place thanks iPad ><

[had_not_lived]

To watch the other three ones? I dom't know-- maybe. [To see if he can understand why the future is so obsessed with them. This is really one of the great mysteries of the City, to Neil.] When is it?

voice; <3

[affectioning]

I think it's this weekend! But I can let you know.

voice; <3

[had_not_lived]

Sure! Can I bring my roommate along? We could bring food or something, it sounds like a lot of people are coming?

voice;

[affectioning]

Yeah! Please. Anybody's welcome.

voice;

[had_not_lived]

Great! Just let us know, and we'll be there!

voice;

[affectioning]

I will.
