Mein Herr

I’ve been well. Tired, but well.

Are you not sleeping well? 

Ya’d think being an only child I’d get attention but noooo, not at all. Whatever, I don’t care. Thanks! Don’t worry, I’m always loud, so it’ll never be strange. I’m also honest, so. Ya don’t seem half bad yourself, really. 

...Thank you. That's kind of you to say.

I really don’t mind at all. Is there a particular place ya would like t’ see? or would ya like t’ see the main areas for us music students…

Oh--whatever you feel like showing me. I really don't mind. Though--the concert hall might be interesting. 

I could show ya around the music department if ya want. It would be no trouble really…

Er. If you'd like, that is. I wouldn't want to be a bother.

Ah, that’s understandable, and I’ve been told that before. I guess I never really noticed until I got here, since at home I didn’t really get noticed by my parents a lot. Sometimes though, I’ve been told my presence is almost too strong, ha.

Ah--I was noticed a bit too much, myself. But--I think it's. Nice. Having a strong presence. It's very...honest. So. That wasn't a criticism. It would be strange the other way around with you, honestly.

Have you been well, Ludwig?

I've--been fine. What about you?

Oh, that’s not forward at all. A marriage proposal would be forward.

Not that you aren't suitable for marriage, Francis.

Wow. I dunno how I feel about that, ya callin’ me divaish? ‘Cause I’m not, I just like writing scripts. Then again, maybe I do seem star-ish quality because it’s hard not to notice me.  

I wouldn't say "diva-ish". It's more so--you have a very strong presence, if that makes sense. 

I have not practiced yet today because I had other obligations but I will need to soon…

And er, I was just...asking on the chance that I might scope it out in the near future. It would be nice to know someone if I happen to get lost--or something similar.

Hm? What do ya mean by that? 

I mean that the drama department--suits you.

I thought we were friends!

Er--of course, I guess. I didn't want to be too forward.

How do ya even know if I’m in the drama department? Never seen ya before. 

Though...It'd be a bit hard not to know, if you don't mind me saying. 

I’ve been doing okay. I’m avoidin’ a little bit of homework but it is not due until Monday so I have time.

Have you practiced lately? I haven't managed to travel down to the music department yet...

You can try! Be optimistic, c’mon! 

...Maybe if I bring a recycling bin some of the students will get the memo.

And how does that make you feel.

Well what do ya mean? But I mean, if ya mean how me callin’ ya a loser makes me feel, makes me feel fine. 

This is why no one likes the drama department.

Then ban homework!

An entire school full of performing arts students are not going to heed my rules, let's be honest.
