Afraid of the dark [Action]

[youfool]

Somewhere in Genessia, a terrified boy is sniveling into his videophone. It's hard to tell anything other than his voice; the surroundings are pitch black. After a few sniffles, he finally gets it out of his system.

"H-hey, someone help me! It's really dark in here and I got lost. Stuff keeps bumping into me and I can't find the way out and it's really dark and I just wanna go home and-and...*sniffles*".

Ted bawls for a bit.

"Maybe...*sniff* maybe call a priest, but I don't know their number. 911 is just for cops, not priests so I dunno what to do. Please help..."

"You stopped watching Sesame Street. Why? You said you used to; that means you don't anymore right?"

Well, it's really a show for little kids and I'm sixteen, so...

"So what?"

Well...girls my age aren't supposed to watch little kid shows, that's all.

[Quinn, you've totally thought about getting an Elmo keychain more than once. Don't kid yourself.]

"Why not? There's girls on that show."

It is not, however, a girl show. He'll fight you if you say otherwise.

No, not like that. I mean, I'm a teenager and I'm vice-president of the Fashion Club, so it would be kinda...geeky of me to watch a kiddie show.

[A show she doesn't miss sometimes. Not one bit. Nope.]

"What's 'geeky' mean?"

Uncool, unpopular, something that'll get you laughed at by the popular kids.

"Yeah, that would be bad. You shouldn't watch that show anymore..."
