Creature Languages, 4/17, Period 4

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

There is candy and soda for the students, as well as herbal tea.

Dream waits for the students to assemble, then begins his lecture.

"Hello. Today we begin our study of the last animal language we will discuss this semester. It is one that may be perhaps closer to your own tongues than many of the others we have studied -- that of simians, especially monkeys."

Dream cues up a videotaped lecture in the DVD player. "This speaker makes the unfortunately common error of conflating monekys with apes, but it is still a reasonable discussion of the similarities and differences between the uses made of languages by simians, and those by man."

"I also have a handout containing a touch more information about monkeys, and a second handout about squirrel monkeys specifically, such as our own Mr. Nielson."

"Ask questions, should you have them."

//I have enjoyed them very much sir.// Mr. Neilson replied. //I am sure our red-headed female friend here will wreak much havoc and sadly I no longer have an excuse to stay out of it.// he added jokingly.

Dream looked from Mr. Neilson to Pippi, ghost of a smile on his face. //You seem to take care of each other.//

Mr. Neilson scratched under his little hat.

//We are both social creatures.// He said. //She, her sire, and his crew were my tribe for a very long time.//
