POHL: Hello, again.
ANDI: Heya.
AMANDA: Hi.
POHL: Not going to scream again, are you?
AMANDA: Night's young, sir.
ANDI: Okay, Kiddo, have fun with your Dad and sister.
AMANDA: Bye, Mom!
POHL: Wow. What a fascinating tattoo on her back.
AMANDA: It's from some old poem, I think.
AMANDA: She tried reading it to me once, but I kind of zoned out after the forest monster.
POHL: I suppose everything after a forest monster may be... anti-climatic?
AMANDA: I prefer killer fairies, anyway.
ANDI: Heya.
AMANDA: Hi.
POHL: Not going to scream again, are you?
AMANDA: Night's young, sir.

Make Gilgamesh more of a Xena-type character and you may hold Amanda's attention longer. You're welcome, Hollywood.
Glad she got it finished. So cool! Well to me. I was an English teacher.
“Night’s young, Sir.” Sir. I like that. She appears to be mellowing. Learning manners. Calling an adult “sir”, instead of being nasty to him.
Gilgamesh? Then where are Agatha and Tarvek? (Come on, Dave, you knew somebody was gonna say it.)
I’m legitimately shocked that Gilgamesh hasn’t been turned into a bloated tentpole summer film yet by Hollywood.
Lord I hope not. My Mom rented the first Hobbit film and it ends with Smaug or whatever and then I was like, “what the hell? That’s the ass end of the book, how did they make this in to THREE films?!”
Never watched the other two.
They couldn’t make John Carter work, and that was more relatable.
Hollywood wants something that’s brand new and pre-sold.
Well, they tried with “Beowulf,” and that was a massive failure.

I’m actually surprised to find, they tried TWICE!

Eh. At least Amanda tried to listen to the story. XD And I’m with her. Killer fairies are awesome.
Sokath, his eyes uncovered!
picard his face palmed..
Steve Rogers, when Nick Fury mentioned flying monkeys.
Christopher L. Bennet, when he explained exactly how a species that communicates in metaphor actually teaches the next generation the “language”.
Oh yes, the Epic of Gilgamesh tattoo. Forgot about that.
T’was Brillig and the slythy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe.
All mimsy were the tattooed groves, as Pohl stood uffish thought.
I also prefer killer fairies: They’re very tasty and puff like popcorn when you slow cook them in a light oil.
How do you deal with the wings when you cook them, I’d think they’d get pretty soggy and limp when slow-cooking them like that? I find that if you pull them off first you can then deep fry them into very crispy potato-chip like things, add a bit more salt that is healthy for you and then you’ve got a light snack for later.
oops typo: …a bit more salt THAN is healthy…
That tat is foreshadowing isn’t it? 🙂
