64th Draw - Of grass skirts, questions and thank yous [Voice]

To everybody who came out to the birthday party that I didn't know was happening on saturday, thank you so much for making my birthday really special! I really loved that so many people came despite the short notice.

Now then... what else did I to ask. Oh yeah! I got cleared for being in top health last week. That means no more Malaria! So am I allowed to start training again so I'm not all skin and bones and a certain Princely boyfriend of mine will stop worrying so much? I don't plan on going at it full force because even if I could, I'd never hear the end of it.

And finally, if you happen to know about a place called Hawaii, tell me more about it! This is very important research and I don't feel like grabbing a book full of lots of photos! I wanna know what you guys think! So drop me a line or two if you feel like sharing!

Hawaii, Bumpkin? Planning a vacation? Hate to break it to you, but this isn't the best time of year to go. Oh, and inter-dimensional travel might not go so well right now.

[There's the faint sounds of tools in the background.]

I'm not planning a vacation, I'm doing research! Could you tell me more about it?

And could you please stop calling me that?

And what're you doing anyway?

[Sheesh, she's full of questions.] Here's a better question for you, Bumpkin: why are you researching Hawaii? State fair project? I thought the school was out for summer.

Can you please call me Selphie or something other than Bumpkin?

The reason why I'm researching Hawaii is because it's related to our next New Feather party. So no, it's not for a project.

No can do. Once I saddle you with a nickname, it sticks. Unless I come up with something better. Them's the breaks.

[...Oh, well that sounds like a good use of his time. Information for a party.] Well, it's an island. That's about all you need to know.

And what if the person with said nickname doesn't like their nickname?

[She kinda liked it better when he was calling her sugar plum.]

I've gathered as much from other people. What do they do on said island?

Well, that's not exactly the point of a nickname. See, a nickname is whatever I like to call you. And I like to call you: "Bumpkin."

[Sugar plum could be negotiable, too.]

Well, they live there.

[Selphie sighs. Tony you are really annoying her with that stupid nickname.]

You don't even know me.

[...Smartass.]

Oh, so do they fling poop at each other too then?

--Yeah, I don't see your point.

[Everyone gets nicknames. Even casual acquaintances.

And he sees a beautiful opportunity here which he should not pursue but he can't stop himself.] Well, of course not. But they do wear large hats stacked with real fruit and dance with them.

...That sounds uncomfortable.

Well, it's a tradition. They also ride on the back of elephants, so you're going to need some of those.

Uh... huh...

That's a bit ridiculous.

Well, that's kind of the point.

Which makes it irrelevant.

Well, you asked what Hawaii is like. I'm only trying to give you the very authentic details, here.
