Killing boredom with...odd childhood games?

Lena sat in her room, scribbling in her notebook. She tried drawing, but she wasn't very good at that

Noah is in deep thought as he passes by a state's room and hears her mumbling. Wondering who it was, he knocked on the the door politely.

"Hello...I couldn't help but overhear you, ma'am."

[minnesnowtah]

Oh, hi! How are ya? I'm just umm....
Kicks the paper on the floor to the side
Bored I guess. I don't believe we have met, ya know?

[the_emeraldcity]

Noah flashes at smile at her.

"I'm Noah Vanderbilt, city of Seattle. And you are?"

[minnesnowtah]

Nice to meet ya Noah. I'm Lena Erickson, or Minnesota. But you can just call me Lena.

[keystone_kidd]

....A shack?
That's bananas!

[minnesnowtah]

Tell me about it, I would rather live in the van, ya know?

[keystone_kidd]

Lena...neither is a suited environment for a child! Now that your a mother and all...

[minnesnowtah]

A-Alex, this is just a quiz! I would never have a kid unless I had the right amount of money to support it!

[hoosier_state]

Whatcha doing there Lena?

[minnesnowtah]

Oh hay der Eli! I'm just playing that old game I used to play as a kid. "MASH" or something like that. How are you?

[hoosier_state]

Oh, I'm good! I'm doing swell.

"MASH"? What's that?

[minnesnowtah]

Good ta hear!
Its a game where you find out your future. Its just for fun though, you should give it a shot, eh?

[show_me_rivers]

You ain't really marrying Gabe! ...Are ya, Miss Lena?

[minnesnowtah]

Minnesota and Wisconsin have a bit of a million dollar plan going on with each other, because of the failing economy...its sort of like marriage but its...not? Besides...could you really see him trying to raise a kid?.....or making one for that manner?

[show_me_rivers]

So...it's like an arranged marriage then?

As long as Lou thinks Lena was forced into this 'arrangement' against her will then he understands...kinda. Al's always making him do things he doesn't want to "for the greater good".

Maybe I ought to give Al a call and have a little talk with the old man... Arranged marriages in this day and age! A gal ought to be able to marry who they want...right?

[minnesnowtah]

Its not something Al decided, its something our Governor's decided. And...I dunno, is it like a marriage? I'm not exactly sure how the terms and all work out. I'm pretty sure its not like a marriage...but it sort of is.
...
Umm....frankly I don't know. But don't be worried.

[notacheesehead]

...What.

Knowing my luck you'd just lay an egg and give birth to a loon.

[minnesnowtah]

'M pretty sure that's not possible...

[notacheesehead]

I don't know, you and Sven have a strange love for those birds...

[minnesnowtah]

How can you not love those birds? they are beautiful~
