Peter was rather glad he'd asked for something tangible as he waited for Tim.

"Hey Peter."

"Tim," Peter said with a nod. "Would you like to try to schmooze first? What did you ask for?"

"Yeah I'll give it a shot. I want to go to Princeton."

Peter assumed a bored countenance. "Well, Mr. Desmond, why don't you explain to me why you should have one of our highly coveted spots at Princeton?"

"Well Mr. Pevensie in addition to my fine performance at Flatbush High School, as my transcript clearly shows, I have participated in a highly difficult, and highly successfull extra-curricular endeavor."

"Indeed?" Peter asked, boredom evident in his voice. "Just one? Tell me about that, I suppose."

"As I'm sure you're aware," tim said, impressed that Peter was managing to annoy him just a little, despite knowing that this was merely an exercise. "New York City is one enormous melting pot of cultures, and ethinicities. Immigrants from all over the world wind up there, and tend to gravitate, at least at first, to those of similar cultural and ethnic backgrounds. Well that can be difficult in a city like New York, where after a few generations, such borders become blurred.
There was some violence, and a lot of misunderstandings. Mr. Pevensie, I, along with some other likeminded individuals, set up an outreach program that not only mediated disputes between conflicting parties, forstalling violence, but matched immigrants with the appropriate individuals, and forged mutual beneficial relationships between them, as well as providing work for said immigrants."

"And your documentation for this?" Peter asked.

Tim didn't know if Peter would play along or not, but Tim mentally made a note to get documentation for the real Princeton interview. He mimed handing Peter some papers. "I have here a copy of the lease agreement for the center, testimonials from several of those that I've helped including Mr. Izanagi the Flatbush High Guidance Counselor and Ms. Fine, the french teacher, just to name a few."

Peter took the pretend-documentation and 'leafed' through it. "Interesting, interesting. You certainly have done of good job of convincing people to speak for you." He looked back up at Tim. "So what exactly would you do with a Princeon education? Why should we educate you and not the girl who's coming by in ten minutes?"

Wow this was great! Practice interview! "Well sir I plan a double major in partying Mythological Studies, and drinking Social Work. It's my hope that what I'll learn here at Princeton will help me to continue the work I've already started."

plus I've talked to the girl who's coming by in ten minutes. she seduced your wife and said that you're a pathetic loser wannabe who'll let her in just 'cause she's pretty.

"Mythological Studies is going to help you help people how exactly?" Peter said with a raised eyebrow.

Oh yeah. Oops. Think fast. "Sir it's my belief that the mythology and folklore of a culture can give one an insight into that culture. It's through these familiar stories that I think I'll be better able to reach out to people of different backgrounds and help them to understand each other."

Peter nodded. "Excellent answer, Mr. Desmond. I'd be pleased to welcome you to Princeton next fall."
