"Are we walking to Zodiaque?"
"We take a boat in Tierkreis"
"Oh, then we're walking to Tierkreis"
"No, your grace we're taking a bus"
"Oh bus"
They are near a bridge "Stella my dear Orion is on his way."
"Who's Stella?"
"Who's Stella she's a tender little morsel"
"Orion"
"After a long walk in the snow"
"Orion"
"A decadent pastry filled with whip cream laughter"
"Is this a person or a cream puff" Tessa asked
"She's Talia's ravishing first cousin"
"But I thought we were going to see the Taurus Empress herself why are we going to see her cousin" Tessa asked "Tom"
"Well nobody gets near the Taurus Dowager Empress without convincing Stella first"
"Oh no not me oh no nobody ever told me that I have to prove I'm the Taurus Grand Duchess"
"Look"
"Shows up yes look nice fine but lie"
"You don't know if it's a lie what if it's true" Tom replied "Okay so one more stop on the road to find out who you are I just thought this was something you had to see through to the end no matter what"
"Look at me Tom I am not Taurus Grand Duchess material here" says Tessa wearing a man hand me down, messy hair
Orion hands Tessa a rose and take her to a bridge "Tell me child what do you see"
"I see a skinny little nobody with not past no future" Tessa throws the rose in the river
"I see an engaging and fiery young Taurus woman who on number of occasion has shown a regel command equal to any royal in the world I have my share of royalty" says Orion "You see my dear I was a member of the Imperial Court of Zodiak Empire, Imperial Court of Zodiak Zemnoy Shar, Imperial Court of Telets"
"So are you ready to become the Taurus Grand Duchess Tessastasia" Tom asked "What"
"There's nothing left for you back they're my dear everything is in Taureau"
Tessa made up her mind "Gentlemen start your teaching"
"I remember it well"
You were born in a Taurus palace by the sea
A Taurus palace by the sea could it be
Yes, that's right you rode horseback when you were only three
Horseback riding me?
And the horse
He was emerald-green
You made faces and terrorized the cook
Threw him in a brook
Was I wild?
Wrote the book
But you'd behave when your father gave that look
Imagine how it was
Your long-forgotten past
We've lost and lost to teach you and the time is going fast
All right I'm ready
Now shoulders back and stand up tall
And do not walk but try to float
I feel a little foolish am I floating?
Like a little boat
You give a bow
What happens now?
Your hand receives a kiss
Most of all remember
If I can learn to do it, you can learn to do it
Something in you knows it
There's nothing to it
Following my footsteps shoe by shoe
You can learn to do it too
They are riding on the back of a truck farm
Now, elbows in and sit up straight
And never slurp the stroganoff
I never cared for stroganoff
She said that like a Byk
The samovar
The caviar
Dessert and then goodnight?
Not until you get this right
They ride horses
If I can learn to do it
If he can learn to do it
You can learn to do it
You can learn to do it
Pull yourself together
And you'll pull through it
Tell yourself it's easy
And it's true
You can learn to do it too
They are on a cart
"Next we memorize the names of the Taurus royalty"
Now here we have Tropotkin
Shot Kropotkin
In the Botkin
Oh!
And dear old uncle Tanya loved his vodka
Got it Tessa?
No
The Baron Tushkin
He was
Short
Count Tanatoly
Had a
Wart
Count Tegeri
Wore a feathered hat
I hear he's gotten very fat
And I recall his emerald-green cat
I don't believe we told her that
They ride bikes
If you can learn to do it I can learn to do it
Don't know how you knew it
I simply knew it suddenly I feel like someone new
They are on a bus
Tessa you're a dream come true
They get off the bus
If I can learn to do it
If I can learn to do it
You can learn to do it
You can learn to do it
Pull yourself together
And you'll pull through it
Tell yourself it's easy and it's true
You can learn to do it
Nothing to it
You can learn to do it too
They aboard the boat to Zodiaque
"Here I brought you a dress" Tom shows an emerald-green dress
"You bought me a tent"
"What are you looking for"
"The Russian circus I think it's still in here"
"Come on just put it on" Tom give Tess the dress
Tom and Orion were playing chess "Checkmate"
Tessa came out wearing the emerald-green dress, her messy hair in two braids look smoothed out
"Wonderful marvelous and now you are dressed for a ball and you will learn to dance for one as well" says Orion "Tom"
"Uh I'm not very good at"
Tom dances with Tessa
"And one, two, three, one, two, three no Tessa you don't lead let him"
Tessa and Tom continue to dance "That dress is really beautiful"
"Do you think so"
"Yes, I mean it was nice on the hanger but looks better on you should wear it"
"I am wearing it"
"Right of course I'm just trying to give a"
"Complement"
"Of course, yes"
It's one two three and suddenly I see it as a glance she's radiant and confident and born to take this chance I thought her well I planed it all but I just forgot romance Orion how could you do it how will we get through this I never should have let them dance
"I'm feeling a little dizzy"
"Kind of like lightheaded"
"Yeah"
"Me too probably from spinning" they stop dancing "Maybe we should stop"
"We have stopped"
"Tessa I"
"Yes"
They were about to kiss when Tooka barked "You're doing fine"
