[Wybie's in the library, reading books on lizards. Why? Because Deadpool got him one for Christmas. His journal is open beside him]

Hey, do you know if you can teach a lizard how to do tricks? Like fetch?

They can totally play fetch, right?

Wybie...please tell me we don't have a return of the swamp ferrets?

[why_born]

What? No, this is my Christmas present from Deadpool.

[tehoniongirl]

[a laugh] Okay. That's a little more manageable. I don't know about fetch, though. If there's anywhere that would work, it would be here.

[why_born]

That would be so cool. I need to give him a name, too.

[tehoniongirl]

I'm no help there. I'm terrible with names.

[why_born]

No way, Jilly. You can't be terrible at anything.

[tehoniongirl]

[awwwww, Wybie. That gets a laugh] Sure I can. It'd be awfully boring to be good at everything, wouldn't it?

[why_born]

Because being useless at something is fun? I don't think so.

[tehoniongirl]

I don't know about useless, but I'm okay at being mediocre at a few things.

Now remembering faces? That I can do.

[why_born]

So you never have awkward moments where someone says hello to you and you can't remember them so you have to pretend you remember them while they talk about their lives and stuff?

[tehoniongirl]

Nope. I usually just get the sinking feeling that I'll fail if they quiz me on what I should call them.

[why_born]

You could call them all Bob?

[tehoniongirl]

[a grin] I'll have to give it a try.
