Does anything rhyme with silver? [somebody's finally trying his hand at writing poetry]

Also if anybody's seen the SS Huntress's welding torch, please let me know! It is a wreck in here, honestly. ...wait, maybe we don't have a welding torch.



[ACTION]

[Sorey can be found half-buried in the guts of engineering, muttering words to himself as he tries to fit them into his rhyming scheme. Occasionally he'll crawl back out of the maintenance panel to write something in a grease-smudged notebook that contains...truly dire but very enthusiastic poetry.]

I guess I really will have to pick something else. My heart was set on silver, too. [since it's perfect. BUT, aside from that,] Are you our lab support? Your voice sounds familiar.

[intelligently]

You could always do a poem that doesn't rhyme. ( Win win ) And I am. I'm Lydia.

I'm kind of afraid nobody will be able to tell it's a poem if I don't rhyme it. I'm kind of new at this. [he's kind of BAD at this]

Cool, nice to meet you! I'm Sorey, I'm the engineer that was just transferred over. If you ever need anything looked at or fixed, please don't hesitate to ask me, okey doke?

voice.

[intelligently]

I will. Are you giving the poem to someone?

voice.

[monolike]

Oh nah, this one's mostly just for my own records. Unless it gets published, for history's sake. I'm just chronicling a bunch of things I've experienced. I've got a ways to go before I get being kidnapped into outer space.

[intelligently]

That's definitely an interesting poem topic. What sort of things are going in it?

voice.

[monolike]

Well, I've been all across the continent of Glenwood after leaving my village. I'm definitely going to include all the places I've been, and all the mysteries I've discovered. I'll have to be careful about what I say concerning the people I meet though, in case they don't want me talking about them.

Can I ask you something? If you were writing a poem about your life, what would you put into it? Just the good stuff, or everything?

voice.

[intelligently]

It sounds like it could be interesting as a story.

And I don't know what I'd put in it. A happier poem might be nicer.

voice.

[monolike]

Something happier? [odd choice of words] You mean, happier than your life?

voice.

[intelligently]

No, just choosing the happier moments.
