I can accept a lot from this place: people coming and going, weird urges, at least weird to most of us, or some jokers trying to imitate the dead to catch us off-guard--

[ There's...bleating off screen, followed by a female voice. ]

Don't act like you know what you're talking about. You're just as new as me.

--but being paired up with a farm animal? Even a talking one...that just ain't responsible.

[ The goat's eyes twinkle as she raises her head into the camera, chewing on a pair of socks pleasantly. There appears to be something of a scuffle for the limited camera space before the video feed finally switches off. ]

(Notes: Al's got the dæmon curse this weekend. Journal or action responses are all welcome! Anyone that runs into Sofonisba (Yes, I named her. Ahem.) at the bar or on the streets will find out pretty quickly that she is very curious and, much like her human counterpart, is not afraid to go after what she wants. This can be anything from headbutting into you if you're in her way to going after your food and/or pants.)

Aw, it's nice to know you think I'm exceptional.

An exceptionally thick head, maybe.

Hey, you're the one who likes to remind me I went to Princeton. I must be kinda smart.

Reading a book because someone tells you to doesn't make anybody smart.

Understandin' what the book means makes me a hell of a lot smarter than most people.

And what are you gonna do with a bunch of morals from books?

Whatever I've been doin' seems to be workin' out okay so far.

So what exactly are you doing?

I've been workin'.

On what, the railroad?

You're a real comedian. I got a job in a store here.

You like it alright?

It's fine. It ain't exactly excitin', but maybe that's for the best.

Whatever keeps you happy.

Right. You like what you do?

It's alright.

Would I do it forever? Nah.

I can't think of anythin' I'd do forever.

Breathin' would be a start.

If you can find a way to get paid for breathin', let me know.

Yeah. I'll let you and your books know.

Hey, nothin' wrong with readin'.

Sure. If you got the time for that.

You really that busy around here?

Thirsty people.

You work every day?
