WHAT IN PERSON, YA FOOLS
WHERE anywhere
WHEN Day 8, evening

[ it's beginning to be summer -- or something like that, sort of. late spring? the weather has been warming up is the point and in the twilight of, well, now, the fireflies have also come out.

twinkling little stars that are actually bugs. Rather, slightly larger than the normal firefly -- in fact, perhaps they seem more like will o' the wisp sized.

But still, a lovely summer. If you follow one they may lead you (crashing into) the path of someone else.

Or the lake.

Definitely also the lake. ]

[turns her head to look at him, and scoots back a little more into the light under the guise of turning to face him better, blinking!]

You mean for me? I go to school.

[that's not true but ok]

[turnonmycharm]

Oh yeah, I guess there is a school here.

You come here voluntarily?

[acts_her_age]

I didn't know anyone came here on purpose. Did you?

[turnonmycharm]

Well, more like, I'm okay with it.

[acts_her_age]

The free rent must be nice for an adult.

[teasing a little, but then her tone turns more contemplative]

...I think... I would rather be at home.

[turnonmycharm]

Sorry to hear it.

[acts_her_age]

[shrugs]

But it could be nice in its own way, too. Has it been relaxing for you?

[turnonmycharm]

Relaxing . . . huh. Well, it's less stressful than home.

[acts_her_age]

Relaxing is the idea, isn't it? And learning something about ourselves? If it's "rehabilitation."

[has the awareness to at least inject some hesitancy into pronouncing that]
