Well -- okay. I was 'chill' in the first place. Is that how people say 'calm' nowadays? I just -- okay. 

Chill.

"Does that eyebrow raise mean 'wow this girl is insane'? If so, I promise you, that I am totally insane," she proudly replied. Although there was practically nothing to be proud of from that. "Find another life goal? Oh, that's hard. Discover a new planet that humans can reside in? Bring back swing music and poodle skirts? Become a flapper superhero? What do you think?"

Mason raised an eyebrow at the redhead, “Well you’ve got it.” he let out a laugh running his hand through his hair. “I’m glad I was able to help you reach that goal. Now you just gotta find another.”

Apparently people forget the old style, you know? I mean, people read from electronics now! Electronics! Why? You don't get the fresh smell or the comforting swish of papers. Oh my gosh, seriously? That's the most adorable thing I've heard all day. You should dress up as Duckie sometime -- seriously.

Pffft, no one could forget the classics. I’m glad I could do so, though. You can’t tell anyone, but Pretty in Pink is one of my favourites.

"Ah, I try my best. You see, a part of me thinks its good we haven't encountered the island from Lost. Or an island with cannibals. I feel as if I might survive two seconds -- after I go insane, of course. That's the whole part of the story. Entertain yourself? Like what? Other than, you know, watching fish dance."

"How kind of you. Well Lucia, things usually seem that way on here, when you’re in the middle of the ocean and all, kind of lose track of time. But I’m sad to say that we haven’t actually encountered the island from the show Lost yet. I haven’t given up hope though. Honestly it can get pretty boring but I always find ways to entertain myself around here."

You have a hammock too? Even the porcupine next door has a hammock! Everyone has a hammock! Except for me. What is this Lucia prejudice?

If you need me, I’ll be snugged up on the hammock.

I'm going to take that as a compliment because that just means I am bursting with energy to the point of great annoyance. Like Amis said, “If you can't annoy somebody, there is little point in writing." But I guess in the case, there is little point in -- speaking? I've come to embrace the annoying part of myself. A tragic flaw turned into characterization. 

Since I’ve been working here for so long I think it’s safe to say that most of you are annoying without getting yelled at.

---- Wait, did you see, you know, someone with ginger hair, that kind of looks like me -- but it's not me -- doing that by any chance? That girl she told me it works but she ran into the pole because she tilted her head far too the side and couldn't see it coming. Ha ha -- yeah.

I don’t get why people get seasick. It’s easy; you just tilt whenever the boat’s tilting, and bam      you save the employees on this ship from cleaning up puke from the floor.

[lucialyons]

---- Right. The candles. Right. Yeah, totally what I meant. 100%. Oh my gosh is that Superman?

I-I meant the candles.

"Oh my gosh, Josie. I have improved so much. This is just a glorious day! They can be? I -- uh, alright. That -- that is true, but one step at a time. One step at a time. Like hopscotch, but not really.  But let us be 'real' I am sure that is something you have thought about at least once in your life."

"So hip that they’re — yeah, yeah. Close enough. We’ll roll with it. Depending on who you ask, they can be pretty endearing. Lyon, get it together, you’ve watched me do a lot worse than rattle off a few curse words. Mars? Don’t be absurd! I never go far."

[lucialyons]

One can not simply live a life without experiencing the magnificence that is bubble baths! If I ever get extra bubble bath ingredients, I'll be sure to pass them on to you, my disciple.

I don’t think i’ve ever experienced that, but it sounds nice i guess. I mean i’ve taken a few bubbles bath filed with Epson salt after long days at the gym. But i think that’s different.

"Creative bonus? Wow, that's just -- I would like to thank my parents for giving birth to me. And chocolate chip cookies for existing. This bonus is just all I have striven for my entire life."

"That’s an interesting way to compare things. I ain’t never heard that one before so you get a creative bonus."

[lucialyons]

"Really? I thought everyone was starting to forget the oldies and just watch the horrible adaptions of perfectly good books, but I guess not! You have helped restored my faith in this generation. Are you kidding? A movie night without John Hughes is not a movie night at all!"

Correction: I love 80’s movies. I’ll have to take you up on that movie night sometime, as long as we watch at least one John Hughes movie.

[lucialyons]

"Ah, yes. College. The time when I decided to listen to the most hip song out there by Nicki Minaj and then cry in the corner because I felt as if my ears had been tainted. It was a rather crazy time. Hey, language. Wait -- so you really did skinny dip in a pool of ethanol? I just -- why?"

"You’d be surprised, red. I mean—- college was crazy as shit."

[lucialyons]

"You're not kidding, are you? Don't try to dig yourself out of the hole, mister! Oh, you like 80's movies? Really? I have a whole shelf of them if you ever want to snag a few or want to join on movie night. Oh, but no stealing. They're my precious little babies."

I’m definitely kidding. I’ll check it out sometime. 80’s movies never disappoint, anyways.

[lucialyons]

"And that's not a bad thing at all! I mean, if it means anything, I don't deem myself of great redneck quality, but I am a redhead. Okay, I'm sorry, not funny. Shut up Lucia."

"Shit just hearing that just makes me feel like the biggest redneck on the boat… which I probably am anyway."

[lucialyons]

"I don't think skinny dipping in a pool of ethanol is something everyone does."

“What? —- That’s crazy! You’ve never really tried it before?”

[lucialyons]

"Ah, yes, I have not been placed upon the world to just go breaking hearts after telling them about fish ballroom. Fletcher? Lucia -- my pleasure. Well, yes, I guess you can say that. I've been here for about -- a month now? It seems to be longer, but yes, a month. I've always wondered what it would be like to be here for a whole year. Does it ever get boring or do you run into unexplored lands made just for scientific discovery?"

"I’m truly honored, never getting to see that might just break my heart. I’m Fletcher by the way, it’s lovely to meet you. I wanna say you’re new here since I’ve been here for a year and have just learned the wonders of ballrooms and fishes."
