News from Shakes Manor

Scene: This morning, our bedroom, way too early. Iain has just gotten out of the shower and is getting dressed; I'm still lying in bed, awake and resentful for it.

Iain: We should build a city.

Liss: We totally should.

Iain: What do you think we should build it on?

Liss: I dunno—rock and roll?

Iain: [singing] WE BUILT THIS CITY!

Liss: [singing] Duhn duhn!

Iain: [singing] WE BUILT THIS CITY ON ROCK AND ROLL! WE BUILT THIS CITY!

Liss: [singing] Duhn duhn!

Iain: [singing] WE BUILT THIS CITY ON ROCK AND ROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

Liss: Have a good day, babe.

Iain: You, too. Don't forget to build a city on rock and roll.

Liss: Will do.
