ty and molly found some fun stuff with justin and gretchen on sunday night.  ideas for these two characters in the future????  i like that most of this could easily be a scene between them in person. nice stuff!!  
FYI -- Next chat is WEDNESDAY 10-midnight!!! 
  justin  ok, i'm here now
  
  gretchen  yay!
  
  justin  how are you tonight?
  
  gretchen  i'm pretty good. how are you?
  
  justin  same as always.  a bit unsure, a bit relaxed, a bit worried (about others)
  
  gretchen  who are you worried about?
  
  justin  well, sam for one.  but that's always.  more presently, you know- what my parents are gonna say when i tell them about college and such.  what sam will say, especially considering how he is now, etc.
  justin  how he is now about school, that is
  justin  you know, the all-encompassing everythings of life
   
  gretchen  you still haven't told him? or your parents? you have to soon. you can't keep lying to them
  
  justin  it's not lying, is it?  when it's just temporary, i mean.
  
  gretchen  it's still lying. "not telling the full truth" is still lying
  gretchen  even if it's temportary
  gretchen  *temporary
  
  justin  well, i won't keep temportarally lying for much longer
  justin  *temporarily
  justin  ;)
  justin  anyways, i plan to make the big announcement any day now
  
  gretchen  well i hope so.... can i be there to see their reactions.
  gretchen  btw... you're a jerk
  
  justin  haha, just kidding beautiful
  
  gretchen  i guess i can forgive you
  gretchen  ) you called me beautiful. i love you
  
  justin  i'm just telling it like it is
  
  gretchen  awe
  
  justin  whose reactions were you hoping to see?
  
  gretchen  your parents... and sams. everyones!
  
  justin  it's going to cost you a leg and an arm for all those front-row tickets you know
  
  gretchen  it's worth it
  
  justin  anyhow, i'm not sure how safe it will be when i break it to the folks
  
  justin  things might explode
  
  gretchen  i'll use you as a shield. you can take the bulk of the blow
  
  justin  ha ha
  
  gretchen  what, you think i'm joking?
  gretchen  your parents will freak. i don't wanna get hit by any of that
  justin  that's why it won't be safe
  gretchen  which is why i'll hide behind you! and maybe i'll wear safety goggles and a bullet proof vest. and stand  feet back. at least
  justin  at least.
  justin  but suppose the blast doth tear me limb from limb, good lady?
  gretchen  probably be more like . wait, where do you plan to tell them? i want to know how much space i have
  gretchen  than i'll give you a vest too
  gretchen  and goggles
  justin  oh, well sweet.
  gretchen  ;)
  justin  i'll make sure it's somewhere open, like a field or something.
  gretchen  good. maybe you should tell them over a megaphone. so the explosion won't hit you...as easily
  justin  for sam, on the other hand, we'll just need a small room that we can run out of an lock after i tell him.  that way he can just burst from sheer confusion and we'll be safe from the splatter
  justin  perhaps.  i'm not sure what the megaphone prices are these days
  gretchen  haha! I love it.
  gretchen  does it matter how much they are? it's your life we're talking about
  justin  i suppose.  i'll need to scrape together what little i have left of my graduation money.  and maybe take out a loan, depending on the price senario.
incidentally, that's another reason why i need to tell the parental unit soon- not much dinero left, you know?
  gretchen  i'lll help chip in. i'm as worried about your life as you are.
  gretchen  how did you plan to pay tuition?
  justin  well, my parents were mostly going to cover it.  and i have some in an account, but that won't last forever
  justin  but i dont see my parents being willing to financially report their wayward son
  gretchen  no. neither do i. well, at least you've got more money now than you would have had you gone to university
  justin  i suppose.  i'll need to get a job or something i guess eventually.  i'm not exactly down with that either, though.  but what else am i gonna do?
  justin  i don't know.  i guess i need to figure out what i'm going to do if school isn't going to be it.
  gretchen  pick dandilions? i'm sure someone will pay you to clear out their yard...
  justin  hey, those dandelions rocked
  justin  there were so many
  gretchen  i agree. i loved them
  justin  think of how many dandelions i could get if i cleared out people's yards all the time?  a bazillion, i bet
  gretchen  you should knock on doors and ask people. then i could decorate my room...
  justin  let's run away together and pick dandelions for the rest of our lives
  gretchen  okay
  gretchen  )
  justin  enough about me.  how was your day?
  gretchen  oh, okay. Lisa's mad at me again. not even about anything specific. she was just in one of those moods. but other than that....my classes were good. i came right home after school. did homework... i found a new band! their called "the buggles"
  gretchen  that' s the extent of my exciting day
  justin  the buggles, eh?
  justin  what type of noise do they make?
  gretchen  they sing video killed the radio star.
  gretchen  i don't even know what genre it would be
  justin  oh, them.  s pre-pop?
  justin  is lisa's attitude anything to worry about?  or is it one of those things that passes like the weather?
  gretchen  sounds about right.
  gretchen  yeah, like the weather
  gretchen  she'll be back to normal tommorrow
  justin  good to hear.  do you ever get tired of that kind of treatment, though?
  gretchen  oh all the time. but you get used to it. i basically just ignore her on those days.
  gretchen  and think of you
  justin  aw
  gretchen  it's the only thinkg that gets me through bad days
  gretchen  not that today was a bad day... but you always help make a day better
  justin  )
  gretchen  D
  justin  i know what you mean.  think you maybe could be around for after i tell my parents?
  gretchen  sure. just remember everything that happens and tell it to me word for word. explosions and all
  justin  of course i will.
  justin  thanks
  gretchen  you're welcome.
  gretchen  now, if you don't mind. i need to go to bed. i have school tommorrow. and so do you ;)
  justin  haha, right.
  justin  well, goodnight.  perhaps i shall call on you tomorrow, if your schedule    permits?
  gretchen  please do. i'll be home at four
  gretchen  pm
  gretchen  not am
  gretchen  that would be dumb
  justin  yes, yes it would.   four am calls are generally avoided
  gretchen  generally. but if it was you calling i probably wouldn't mind...
  justin  i'll remember that.
  justin  goodnight!  i love you
  gretchen  but not too often
  gretchen  night! i love you too.
