Vanessa: No I haven't. Christy Moppet recommended it. I do wish that waiter would hurry up and get here. Thank you for the jacket. You're the nicest person I've meet since coming to America.

 

[The Count]

*Laughs nervously as cheeks redden slightly.
You're very kind to say so... Oh, there's our waiter.
*Flags down the penguin-suited guy shlepping dishes about.
Yes, over here sir... Water for me please.
*Looks back at Vanessa: Go ahead and order, Um, I'll just go wash my hands and be fright back.

 

[christyb]

Vanessa: He's kinda skittish...but cute. I'll just have the special sir. I'm not sure what he'll have. Water to drink.

 

[The Count]

*Returning to the table... Sorry about tht... I'll have a pot of your finest seafood gumbo please.
*Whispering to waiter: Make sure the noodles for the special are good and al dente.

Waiter: Sure thing sir. It'll be just a while. Our cook ran out on us. But don't worry. I'll have it out as soon as we can.

 

[Beauregard]

Father: *walks into office at Wilson's* Yes, Suzan, I'll have a cappuccino with extra foam, two cookies with sprinkles, and a yahoo-cake. *pause* Coming to work has been much more fun since they bought that Diana place...I still get to drink coffee, sit in a comfortable chair and occasionally tick-boxes on paper-work...and now I do it guilt free! *yells* Suzan, I said coffee, not coughing so clear up that cold and get to work!!! *returns to desk and flips through paperwork* Ahh, a note, addressed to myself. "Note from Management: Mr Moppet. Do not turn around." Well...that's odd. *turns around and is hit by a cosh, thrown into unconsciousness* Why didn't I learn to obey superiors...

 

[The Count]

*Another note from management is slipped into Beau's hands: Why didn't you learn to obey your superiors? Ask Mother, then get back to us.

Saryx: <walks in...is now as big as medium sized dog>

Mairin: They grow up so fast....

Saryx: Can we go to the zoo tomorrow?

Mairin: Maybe.....If you're good...

Saryx: <rolls eyes> oh moooooom...

 

[Erine81981]

Biggy: *looks around* Did i hear someone say zoo?

 

[The Count]

*At the waterfront cafe... No, that's OK, I'll pay off the heck.
Money changes hands and Vanessa and Ivan leave holding hands to the strains of violin lingering in the air as they stroll down the riverfront harbor walk, wooden planks creaking underfoot before they stop in at a little parlor shop not far away.
