"Hi chicken"

"Hi princess"

"Um... I like food and I would love to travel the world one day"

"Huh?"

"I'm telling you about myself dummy. Isn't it why we have these night calls instead of sleeping?"

"You know, if its a hassle to your sleeping patterns I don't have to call at this time"

"No! I mean-- no, its okay. I like our nine pm calls"

"I'm so happy to hear you say that"

"Um.. I'd like to go to Antarctica"

"That place where its freezing cold?"

"That's the one"

"Why?"

"I don't know. I guess it would be fascinating to be there and save penguins and maybe live in an igloo"

"You'll get hypothermia and frostbite and ultimately die"

"I still want to go"

"You're clearly crazy"

"No I'm ambitious and driven"

"Crazy. Who would want to go to a place where you could risk dying of hypothermia and frostbite?"

"Me?"

"See? Crazy"

"No its n--"

"Its admirable though"

"What?"

"That you would risk hypothermia and frostbite to save penguins... I find it very hot and admirable"

"Oh--uh-- thanks I guess"

"Don't be awkward princess, its just a compliment"

"Not just a compliment to me"

"What?"

"Uh...nothing. What about you? What do you want to do once you're done with school?"

"I'm not sure--- get a job perhaps, however, I wouldn't oppose traveling and rescuing penguins"

"Are you saying this for my benefit?"

"No. I'm saying that I would enjoy traveling around the world with you. Never a dull moment"

"Thank you... that is literally the sweetest thing you have said to me "

"Get used to it princess"

"What? Why?"

"You'll see"

"Okay Mr. Mysterious."

"Okay I want to ask you a question and its a matter of life and death"

"Another one?!"

"Cereal or milk?"

"What?"

"Which one do you pour in the bowl first? Cereal or milk?"

"That's easy, milk"

"Blasphemy!"

"Blasphemy!"
