I can also relate to Henry do to family reasons and school. Let's just hope our science mom can pull things around. Oh wait Edward still has to have his night, Henry sorry bro but your anxiety is going to get a tad worse.

And as a side note, I only have two people I actually consider friends. The rest are just people I know. One of them owes me a life debt by his own convictions, otherwise he wouldn't hang about.

She finished the last verse of the melody and softly asked,*

Uhm, *Catt frowned scratching her temple, and trying to remember.*

It starts with, "It's not easy, being green. Having to spend each day the colour, of the leaves." But I don't really remember the rest of the words.

You ok? *Catt asked, peering into the hatt. The light from the room outside dimly illuminated vague outlines of furniture.* Stay put, I'm coming in.

* Setting the hatt on it's side, she crawled in. The change in gravity's direction making her head spin.* Uhg, right. Now where's the table?

* There was the sound of footsteps followed by a soft thump and Catt's voice raised in surprise.* Ow! *sigh* There it is.

* Some shuffling and the sound of a match being struck. The flickering light was then set to a kerosene lamp which sat on a round side table next to a yellowish high backed armchair. Three bookcases stood nearby with a display cabinet behind the chair. Next to the cabinet on the right was a mini-fridge that hummed mechanically. Beyond the furnishings blackness stretched on forever, making the space feel large and ominous outside the lamp's warm glow.*

Not sure really. Sometimes it's here, sometimes it's not. I use it as a private study of sorts, a safe place to keep some valuable, rare, or dangerous things I've picked up on my travels. It's also how Dr. Helen avoided drowning back then.

* Catt noticed Mz. Hyde's gaze.* Weird, right? I mean, who would bother putting a video sharing site into a book? Ah, well. At least it should have a copy of the song.

* Catt then flipped open the book to the first page and wrote "It's not easy being green" in a small rectangle that was situated in the center of the page. After a second the writing faded, as if absorbed into the parchment. Then, the books first few pages turned by themselves until it reached one that had small rectangles in a column next to a few lines of text. Catt made a checkmark beside one of the rectangles and the book's pages once again flipped themselves, stopping on a full-page picture. Tapping the center of the image, she then turned the book so Mz. Hyde could see better. The page began playing this video, with sound and everything.*

Dr. Jekyll II ( Mother Hen )  Catt Hatter • 3 years ago • edited

That IS a reasonable answer. ( Hen pauses to take a sip from a delicate China cup and sets it down. ) Unfortunately, that is the answer to everything else in life as well. As you can clearly see, the currency of the world is no longer honesty but rather, well, currency itself. I am a doctor and so I have a flexible budget. However, I also have a rather large house and a team of servants large enough to run it. Bills to pay, taxes to file, the list goes on. I cannot downsize because my home is, in of itself, a hospital. I pay what I can in dues and I volunteer as much as I can, but currency will not lend itself to pro bono work. For every loss on my payroll, it is a supplier unpaid and medication not administered. Victoria has secured a Prima position, that is true, but she pays for her own makeup and her own costumes, which are cringingly expensive. She tutors students, but she must provide royalties to the composers of the pieces she uses. Some of us are at the mercy of others, Sara and Sam have no steady income and so they have no way of paying rent- thus requiring the tab to be picked up elsewhere. It is a sorry state of affairs and I hate to see so many struggling, but civilized society is terribly brutal and there can only be so much done.

Dr. Jekyll II ( Mother Hen )  Catt Hatter • 3 years ago

I suspected as much. The challenge lies in that, THAT, my dear, has never actually been done. I do know someone who can grow organs from the source DNA, but the challenge lies in getting the brain to communicate with it. The worst case is that she'd have a functional eye but with no sight because of the severed connection. Of course, as an experiment, that would certainly be a pro bono project. I cannot guarantee its success, however and it is my opinion that Miss Jekyll is not yet ready to face such risks. ( Hen pauses with a mountin mournful expression. ) She's really hurting Catt. Dreamer has been through a horrific accident and she's traumatized by it. More than a fancy experiment, she needs to heal first. She needs a friend.

But, I don't know how to help a friend heal on the inside. *Catt lamented, gaze returning to the floor.* I've got ideas on how she could get home, but she said that doing the reading for it with one eye would give her another headache. So I'm trying to fix that, and now I find out the one thing I have no idea how to fix needs fixing first!

* Catt wanted to cry, she felt so helpless. Is this what having friends meant? Not being able to help them when they need it most because she didn't know how? Then why did people bother with friends in the first place?!*

Some people are less social than others. Introverted. They love you all the same, but sometimes they aren't quite sure what to say. They may appear stoic but that is largely because they're having a conversation within themselves. ( He places a hand on Catt's shoulder. ) Being there for them is the first step. They might withdraw, but your love and support will mean the world to them and make the healing easier.

When she's ready, we can try the surgery. This isn't the end by any means. All that I'm saying is that it's my personal opinion to let her heal first so that she can be strong enough for the journey ahead of her, all she needs in the meantime is love.

Ok. Answer this and show me the math. What's 5*3?

5*3=15, there's nothing more to it.

This is one of those situations where you have to be ridiculously detailed for no reason, isn't it...

Tell me, did you multiple 5 three times?

It's just 5+5+5...

No. It's 3+3+3+3+3.

The result is the same though, and adding 5 3x instead of 3 5x is quicker.

Not according to the new standards! Let's try another: 8+6

You can't do that. Here, look up common core teacher takes nearly a minute to solve 9+6!

I looked it up and I get what she's saying, but it's so self explanatory... Do you really have to write all of that down?

Apparently yes. I don't have to deal with it anymore because I am graduating high school next week, and this whole new system was put in just a year or so ago. So my class were the guinea pigs for the new tests, even though we weren't raised on the standards. I'm terrible at math, but I can "get credit" for showing how I got my wrong answer. Which is fine to me for something that's really complicated like crazy, but a with a fundamental thing like addition and subtraction, who cares how I got it or really anything else for that matter, who cares? And now there are math problems like this: "Billy made 7 invitations with hearts on them for his birthday party. He also made some with stars on them. He had 17 invitations in all. How many invitations had hearts on them? Show your work!"

That's how I feel, but that makes me worry about kids who are following behind me. People from your country and the rest of the world are going to look at us and be all like: Those Americans are so stupid, it takes them a minute to solve 5+5!

I can't speak for the world, but all that it makes me think is that yes, we should understand why things are the way they are, but to keep writing it down in such detail is unnessecary.

Yeah, when I would ask "Why do I need to know this?" I'm not asking for a complete in-depth explanation on why something works, I just want to know how I'll use it outside of the classroom.

But also a lot of whatever.
