I've had this idea for a while now, and it takes place after I return home from Ireland. And it's one in which I decide to take Lincoln with me to Italy, only referring to it as Italia to confuse others. And knowing that there are mafias in Italy, including the still-existing Cosa Nostra on the island of Sicily, I feel it would be best if I not only keep our trip to Italy a secret from his friends and family but also not allow them to join us, as it could help us keep a low profile.
Now, upon arriving in Italy, we could book a hotel room somewhere in which the people there are bilingual, with Lincoln and I learning the Italian language and phonology, which could help out Lincoln if he was to become a conlang creator and not just a magician, cowboy, or even comic writer. On the first day in Italy(excluding the arrival there), we wake up to some music that is heard in a Noodles and Nedd short called catch of the day, when Noodles is laughing at a comedy show of John Dilworth with bananas for ears. The music is also heard in an episode of Courage the Cowardly Dog called journey to the Center of Nowhere when Courage, impersonating "the Great Eggplant" is training the other eggplants.
I would switch the song to a different one. An underrated song by a known artist that might be perfect for the morning. The song is Good Morning Life by Dean Martin.
During the morning, we could get ready, have some breakfast, and talk about things, including how there are mafia groups in Italy like Cosa Nostra, who was the first of them when they formed in the early 19th century and still exist today, that might get interested in rubbing Lincoln out. I'd rather not risk them getting involved as well, having to deal with the local mafia in Visalia, not that it actually has one IRL. It is still best if he and I were to keep a low profile.
I could take Lincoln with me to a Roman coliseum, where I could tell him about the things that have happened within them... and how brutal they were, which could disturb and make him uneasy. Of course, I could address that these types of things don't happen much anymore, and hopefully aren't still going on in other parts of the world. And even if they are, they might end someday.
Later on, we take a tour throughout the rest of Rome, with a montage of our "expeditions" being to the tune of this track stolen by Jincheng Zhang, whatever the real name of the track is. He calls it "Enforce I Love You", but what's the real title is what I'd like to know.
The montage could include us looking at several statues and artworks, taking several photos of everything we're doing, to post on social media when the time is right, looking at several neighborhoods, learning some aspects of the language, riding on canoes, and talking to each other in what we've learned of Italian about things like maybe me setting Lincoln for a buddy system with Andrew as his partner. As a joke of course, though that will come back later, along with Lincoln's friends not taking my prohibition of them from joining us on our trip lightly.
Later that night, Lincoln and I could turn in for the night, looking forward to another good morning. While Lincoln and I are asleep, before we wake up, a lot of familiar kids sneak into our room with a look that will terrify me when I wake up.
