’ Call it what you will… fate… destiny… ’ ’ You smell that? Take a deep breath through the nose. ’ ’ Really let that seep in. ’ ’ What are you getting? ’ ’ Your thoughts? ’ ’ I don’t know why, but overall it just smells like the color brown. ’ ’ I could get used to a view like this. ’ ’ Yep, I’m used to it. Guys I want a castle. ’ ’ Great. Now I’m the bad guy. ’ ’ Look in that mirror. ’ ’ I see a strong, confident, beautiful young lady. ’ ’ Oh look, you’re here too. ’ ’ Skip the drama, stay with Mama! ’ ’ This is the story of how I died. ’ ’ Don’t worry, this is actually a very fun story and the truth is, it isn’t even mine. ’ ’ Oh… oh no… where is my satchel? ’ ’ I’ve hidden it. Somewhere you’ll never find it. ’ ’ It’s in that pot, isn’t it? ’ ’ I’m just teasing! ’ ’ How you manage to do that every single day without fail! ’ ’ It looks absolutely exhausting, darling! ’ ’ Then I don’t know why it takes so long. ’ ’ Oh, it’s nothing. ’ ’ Who are you, and how did you find me? ’ ’ I know not who you are, nor how I came to find you. ’ ’ May I just say… Hi. How ya doin’? ’ ’ You were my new dream. ’ ’ You should know that this is the strangest thing I’ve ever done! ’ ’ Let’s just assume for the moment that everyone in here doesn’t like me! ’ ’ How ‘bout best two out of three? ’ ’ Who’s that? ’ ’ They don’t like me. ’ ’ Too weak to handle myself out there, huh, ______? ’ ’ Go. Live your dream. ’ ’ Your dream stinks. I was talking to her. ’ ’ I was saying tomorrow is a really big day, and you didn’t really respond. ’ ’ I distinctly remember, your birthday was last year. ’ ’ No no no, can’t be. ’ ’ That’s the funny thing about birthdays, they’re kind of an annual thing. ’ ’ You know how I feel about the mumbling. ’ ’ Blah blah blah blah blah, it’s very annoying! ’ ’ I’m just teasing, you’re adorable. ’ ’ I love you so much, darling. ’ ’ Let me just get this straight. ’ ’ I take you to see the lanterns, bring you back home, and you’ll give me back my satchel? ’ ’ When I promise something, I never ever break that promise. ’ ’ I didn’t want to have to do this, but you leave me no choice. ’ ’ This is kind of an off-day for me. This doesn’t normally happen. ’ ’ Fine! I’ll take you to see the lanterns. ’ ’ You broke my smolder. ’ ’ Here comes the smolder. ’ ’ This is bad, this is very very bad, this is really bad… ’ ’ They just can’t get my nose right! ’ ’ Who cares? ’ ’ Well, it’s easy for you to say… ’ ’ The party lasted an entire week, and honestly, I don’t remember most of it. ’ ’ I’ve been dreaming about them my entire life! ’ ’ Haven’t any of you ever had a dream? ’ ’ What’s your dream? ’ ’ Sorry, boys. I don’t sing. ’ ’ Well, I hope you’re here to apologize. ’ ’ I have something for you too. ’ ’ I should have given it to you before, but I was scared. ’ ’ And the thing is, I’m not scared anymore. ’ ’ You know what I mean? ’ ’ All right, okay, give me a boost, and I’ll pull you up. ’ ’ I just… I can’t believe that after all we’ve been through together, you don’t… trust me? ’ ’ Sorry… my hands are full. ’ ’ I’ve been looking out of a window for eighteen years. ’ ’ And what if it is? What do I do then? ’ ’ What if it’s not everything I dreamed it would be? ’ ’ Well, that’s the good part I guess. ’ ’ You get to go find a new dream. ’ ’ That’s a lot of hair. ’ ’ Oh, now they’re just being mean. ’ ’ I can’t believe I did this! ’ ’ I mean, what she doesn’t know won’t kill her, right? ’ ’ I have made the decision to trust you. ’ ’ So, what do you want with my hair? To cut it? ’ ’ Listen, the only thing I want to do with your hair is to get out of it… ’ ’ I have a big surprise! ’ ’ Did I ever tell you I’ve got a thing for brunettes? ’ ’ Is it ruffians? Thugs? Have they come for me? ’ ’ Stay calm. It can probably smell fear. ’ ’ You should see your faces because you look - ’ ’ I didn’t see that coming. ’ ’ But I know what the big question is? ’ ’ So! Hey can I ask you something? ’ ’ Because I’m not gonna lie, that would be stupendous… ’ ’ Is there any chance that I’m going to get super strength in my hand? ’ ’ Oh. Sorry yes, just… lost in thought I guess. ’ ’ Whoaaaa! Somebody get me a glass! ’ ’ Frying pans… who knew, right? ’ ’ Sorry! Just, don’t… don’t freak out. ’ ’ Is that blood in your mustache? ’ ’ Look at all the blood in his mustache! ’ ’ I can’t help but notice you seem a little at war with yourself here. ’ ’ Now, I’m only picking up bits and pieces here, of course. ’ ’ A little rebellion, a little adventure, that’s good. Healthy, even. ’ ’ I mean, this is serious stuff. ’ ’ But let me ease your conscience. This is part of growing up. ’ ’ You’re way over thinking this, trust me. ’ ’ I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m letting you out of the deal. ’ ’ What is it going to take for me to get my satchel back? ’ ’ You can’t tell anyone about this, okay? ’ ’ Well, I’ve gotta say, I didn’t know you had that in you back there. ’ ’ Now, I know I’m not supposed to mention the hair. ’ ’ Frankly, I’m too scared to ask about the frog. ’ ’ If you want to see the lanterns so badly, why haven’t you gone before? ’ ’ Why would you ask such a ridiculous question? ’ ’ I’ve spent my entire life hiding from people who would use me for my power… ’ ’ That criminal is to be hanged for his crimes. ’ ’ Hmm. I have magic hair that glows when I sing. ’

OPHELIA. * DOUBTSTARS

She worries, seemingly her nature to do so. Compassion filled, eyes crinkled with concern as a fleeting frown crosses features. Perhaps not her place to speak out ( hardly knowing the boy in question ), but his response eases her mind, if only somewhat. Nod in response to her questioned name, soft smile touching lips. 

“I am glad to hear so, but even so– can I offer you   assistance in any way? You do look rather disconcerted.” 

    easy smile just grows easier,    and his fingertips feel warm at the concern.       romeo was not starved for compassion by any means,    but he is a social being at heart,       positive attention a motivating thing.        curls splay m e s s i l y across his brow after a       quick                       shake                        of                             his                            head.
