        "Out!"

        "Why?"

        "Cause Piet, I gotta change. So out."

        "I don't mind. Go right ahead and change."

        "But *I* do. Out now!"

        "You can't make me."

        "Oh, I can't? All it would take is one little scream."

        "You. Wouldn't. Dare."

        "Just. Try. Me. Piet."

        "Yo Abby! Eric's on the phone!"

        "Thanks Todd, be right there! And *you* better be out of here by the time I get back. Got it?"

        "Whatever you say Abby."

        "Nice outfit Abby."

        "Shush you. Hey Eric. Yeah it's me. Uh huh. Uh huh. Don't even *think* about it Todd. Uh huh. That's too bad. Hope he feels better. Uh huh. Next week then? Uh huh, uh huh, okay. See you then. Bye."

        "So what did Eric want?"

        "Game's canceled; Lee can't make it. Sore throat."

        "That's what… the third time this month? You think there could be something wrong? Something like…"

        "It's probably nothing; just tonsillitis."

        "Just tonsillitis? You sure? Last time I got a string of sore throats, I ended up spitting up slime on the doctor doing that swab thingy.  Don't laugh. The back of my throat's very sensitive."

        "I'm not."

        "So, now that your planes have fallen through, how are you planning on spending this fine Saturday night?"

        "Bubblegum Crisis or Eva? Or we could always watch Star Trek First Contact."

        "*If* we can get Lance to relinquish the remote."

        "Wave a copy of Project A-ko in front of his face. I'm going to go chase Pietro out of my room, and put on something more appropriate."

        "Okay."

        "You better not be trying to steal any of my cloths."

        "Oh Abby. I was just… putting away your dry cleaning for you."

        "Nice try Speedy. Out."

        "Why?"

        "We went over this earlier. I wan to get dressed, and I want you out."

        "No."

        "Fine then."

        "What… what are you doing?"

        "Exactly what it looks like."

        "But… but… but…"

        "Ah hah. So I was right."

        "Right about what?"

        "Right about how much more you… prefer the beauty of the male form to that of the female one."

        "I am not gay!"

        "You just keep telling yourself that Piet."

        "I don't have to take this kind of abuse. I'm leaving."

        "Okay then. The others are going to watch anime in the den, if you want to join them."
