BRAVA, BRAVA!! Excellent recitation, Anne-chan~!!

[This comes complete with clapping and cheers. For serious]

Thank you! You're too kind, Kida. I'm sure I could have done better with more time to practice.

generalflirt February 6 2011, 08:48:01 UTC

Even if you could do better, I'm sure this was twice as good as what some other people could do!!

slatebreaker February 6 2011, 16:13:33 UTC

Your faith in me is more than encouraging. [ a polite pause. ] How do you fare, Kida?

I ha--

[ oh. well. Was gonna answer the question but just listens to the rest... ]

Oh... Is that a story?

[ voice ] slatebreaker February 4 2011, 16:11:37 UTC

It's poetry, Mikado. Though the best poetry always does have a story in it.

... you really took this Dr. Seuss stuff seriously, huh?

[He's feeling tons of second hand embarrassment here.]

slatebreaker February 4 2011, 19:18:27 UTC

Of course. Why? [ she senses that kurt might not be exactly pleased with her recitation. ] Did I make a mistake? I practiced...

onebluebamf February 4 2011, 19:19:41 UTC

Ah! No no, you did great!

[But he was just teasing her. He kind of figured she'd realize it was meant to be a joke once she started reading.]

I was worried I might have gotten the wrong meter. It is truly awkward, but not without its charm.

[For a while, Ven's content to listen to her recite Dr. Seuss, but eventually his curiosity gets the better of him.]

Is that some kinda nursery rhyme?

[voice] slatebreaker February 5 2011, 07:15:41 UTC

I've come to learn that it's somewhere between a nursery rhyme and a poem.

[voice] risingwinds February 6 2011, 05:33:02 UTC

[Well, that makes sense!]

I've never heard it before. Is it from one of the books here?

[voice] slatebreaker February 6 2011, 16:12:23 UTC

Why, yes it it. I picked it up from the library under the advisement of a friend.

What are eggs and ham?

slatebreaker February 6 2011, 16:12:52 UTC

[ this inspires laughter. ]

Why, breakfasting foods -- of course.
