So, I’m taking this writing class and for homework we were charged with the task of writing a dialog between two characters that contained nothing but speech. I had so much fun with it that I think it’s just something I’m going to do from time to time. Here is the first one (and the one that I turned in)":
Go to Sleep, Genius Baby
“Vroom… Crrrr…. Bckooosh!!!!!”
“Jeffy. Gimme the truck. Look what time it is.”
“Time iss uh ah-bit-wawy constwuck. I favuh uh sow-wupsis-tick univewse.”
“Solipsism, eh? Funny. That’s not what you ‘favor’ at Christmas.”
“Pwesents aw fun. Ewen Wen-nay Decawt wassunt too sinick-cuh fo dopahmeen.”
“Descartes, Dopamine… Sure, sure… Brush your teeth?”
“Sumwhewh.”
“Alternate universes don’t count. Brush them. Are you ready to dream?”
“Daddy. Do you dweem uv Gramma ahn buh-nan-nuhs?”
“Jeffrey, no more Freud. It’s rude.”
“I juss wuwwy bout yuh eyes, Ed-eh-puhss.”
“Ughhhhhh. Want a story tonight?”
“Hamwet!”
“Hamlet? Heavy for a two-year-old.”
“Da Bawd gets meee.”
A writing workshop sounds awesome, the bard gets me was a great line.
