pick up girls at N.Y.U

[unloved_nymph]

Oh! I seem to be on the track of a, um, double major. Which seems so silly with school having only just started.

I'm not precisely sure how it happened but my professors all say that I'm, um, driven and that I could do well once I learn to edit my papers.

Because 'um'ing on essays is frowned upon here. They want me to form my own opinions instead

Do you enjoy dancing, Echo?

[unloved_nymph]

Oh! Very much yes! I love the, um, swish of it.

[meli_mollifies]

[finds a giggle from this, not that you can hear it]

I think swish is a very good term for many forms of dance. It does make my heart glad to see that you are happy.

[unloved_nymph]

I'm very glad you think so. I think perhaps, um, if it needed large words to describe how it feels it wouldn't be dancing. It would be, um, an essay. Not that I'm against essays precisely.

But how, um, are you? That is the important question.

[sidewayseeing]

One might -
One should consider it a good thing, yes?
To be happy ?

It is a thing you try for.
An achievement.
Mostly, I think, it is something deserved.
For you, especially.

[unloved_nymph]

Oh! I do agree on, um, achievements. There are so many small ones that pass by discreetly and merge together into something bigger than you thought they could be. Something you can see from a, um, distance. With your eyes closed.

Something to dance for.

MY LOVE! ♥♥!

Like  b l u r r e d  photographs
or continents [ when viewed from outer space ].

And you are such a fine dancer, sweetness.

I have missed you like woah.

[unloved_nymph]

The blurred ones are better at capturing motions and moments beyond the, um, image. And I think you would make a, um, wonderful astronaut.

Oh! I'm glad you, um, say so. Thank you very much. I've gotten to dance in groups again but I'm trying to get the solo all the same. Will you, um, come to watch?

I think, if I were a professor, grading a paper with 'um'ings would be much more interesting than the common ones.

[unloved_nymph]

My advisor says he can, um, always tell which ones are mine.

Also: hello. Hello hello hello, Morpheus.

[morphingreality]

It is always better to be known, or recognized, by instructors.

Hello hello hello, Echo. I see that you have been doing well.

[unloved_nymph]

I'm trying to, um, accept standing out a bit. They don't react well to just being, um, followed around and repeated.

I've been doing well but I, um, missed hellos. And the part that followed after. How are you?

[pennywaits]

I'm so glad to hear that you are happy.

[unloved_nymph]

I'm, um, doing my best. How are you, Penelope?

omg it's you.

[pennywaits]

Your best is all you can ever do. You're keeping up with your work? Eating well?

And I'm fine dear. Truly.

/waves ^^

[unloved_nymph]

I didn't know there would be, um, quite so much of it but I haven't missed any, um, deadlines yet. Only a little lack of sleep but that's to, um, be expected.

I'm very glad.

Aw sweetheart, that's adorable~

as you do.

[unloved_nymph]

Um, thank you, Lord Apollo. I don't mean to be, um, adorable but I'm glad you think so.

SOB

[myselfknown]

You're welcome.

Sons of bitches? Where?

[unloved_nymph]

That is quite a large, um, smile, Lord Apollo.
