If you say so. I don't think the walls are going anywhere.

So what, now you're trapped watching the two of them? Welcome to life as a third wheel. You're a good friend though.

Maybe I could help keep you from being bored? I spend a lot of time having to listening to Zeke talk about Sharpay all the time. Or listen to Sharpay bitch at Zeke all the time. Scariest relationship ever.

[theplaymaker]

No, the walls aren't, but I am. I want to go to many places.

You're a good friend, too. Especially if you stay around for Sharpay and talk about Sharpay and everything. I think she still scares me. No, she definitely still scares me. I feel like four inches tall around her, even when my heels are higher than that.

But I'd like it if you kept me from being bored. You're good at that, you're never boring.

[enoughcredits]

Where do you want to go the most though?

Zeke needs all the help he can get. I'm totally supportive, I'm always there to withhold his cookies so that he'll actually talk to her. Doesn't she give you some sort of break because you're her brother's best friend? That seems like it'd be fair.

I'm probably boring sometimes. I'm not the one in New York.

[theplaymaker]

You know, stereotypical stuff I guess. I'm a music geek. I want to go to Vienna, Salzburg, London, Milano, places like that.

Are you sure you're doing it to be supportive and not just because you like cookies? But, no, me being Ryan's best friend makes it worse sometimes. She gets insecure.

I don't think location makes you more or less boring. Just gives you more reason to complain about the weather.

[enoughcredits]

Wait why would you want to go to a cookie factory? The chocolate chunk kind are better anyway.

Well there's that too, yeah. But you've seen her! She's kind of terrifying and pink. The ones who put an effort into their looks are always the really insecure ones, aren't they?

It's still pretty hot out here. Not very Christmas-y.

[theplaymaker]

It's the city the cookies are named after, but I'll note down your preferences anyway.

I don't know about always, but they're often more insecure than people assume. But Zeke seems to get it and not mind, so good for her.

I don't know, it's way too cold here, I miss Albuquerque winter.

[enoughcredits]

You don't have to note my anything, Kelsi. I get free cookies from Zeke all the time. I'm an official taste tester for her royal highness the ice princess.

Zeke gets things that none of us will ever get when it comes to Sharpay, but she was actually almost nice to me the other day. It's sort of an improvement. She even remembered my name. But see you get it. You're totally not insecure.

Isn't it snowing there yet?

[theplaymaker]

I make note of things, it's kind of inevitable. Although now I envy you, I'm so hoping Zeke is going to come study at CIA here as soon as possible.

Congratulations! I think maybe some time she'll be almost nice to me, too, one never knows. But I don't know about that. I'm very insecure. Just in different ways. And I don't compensate like that.

No, it only does some kind of rain and snow mix. I had to reassure Chad that this isn't actual snow, he was very disappointed.

[enoughcredits]

If you get Zeke, you get Sharpay. Just warning you.

What other notes have you made?

She knows your name, but you're no longer "Kelsi the little composer girl." Now you're "Kelsi the girl who helped turn my brother into a pod person."

I'd be disappointed to, that's not winter. How's Chad liking NY?

[theplaymaker]

No fair. If I get Sharpay I want the rest of the Wildcats, too!

Notes about you? A lot of them. I could write a very confusing book.

That makes me feel very accomplished. Ryan right now would be a great pod person if I actually had anything to do with it.

It will be winter properly after Christmas, I think. By the time I'm back here. And Chad loves New York, he likes the people he meets and the work he does and everything. Also the fact that Ryan's coming back soon.

[enoughcredits]

You'll see a few of us when you come home at least?

What's confusing about the book about me?

Please don't make Ryan into a pod person, he doesn't look a thing like a pea.

You'll have to take pictures or something, I haven't seen snow in years. I'm glad he's got you there for him. If anybody should be teaching him about the city it's you.

[theplaymaker]

That's the best thing about coming home.

You are confusing, so a book about you would be, too.

Good point.

I'll take pictures or something. I've never seen snow until last year, I squeed the first time it snowed. Chad's the same, that's why he's so excited for it.

[enoughcredits]

Come to the gym, Kels. I'll even get Zeke to bake you something.

What's so confusing about me?

Maybe I should tell Zeke we should go in the winter instead of the spring then.

[theplaymaker]

You don't have to bribe me, I plan on coming.

I never know what's going on in your head.

Winter would be sooner. Is that even Zeke's decision?

[enoughcredits]

Awesome!

Why's that such a bad thing? You can't know everything about everyone all of the time, can you?

Of course not, we can't afford cross-country travel whenever we want.

[theplaymaker]

I don't know. I usually do when I put my mind to it.

So, Sharpay? I'm surprised she's letting you tag along.

[enoughcredits]

You think too much. Just...live a little more.

Me too. She's been a lot more lenient in letting Zeke make decisions which means she's not lenient at all by anyone else's standards, but it's a start.

[theplaymaker]

I don't want to think the wrong thing while I'm living.

And Zeke's request is to take you with them? That's kind of cute. ;)

[enoughcredits]

What would be the wrong thing?

Well wouldn't Ryan ask Chad to take you places?

[theplaymaker]

Making assumptions and drawing false conclusions.

No, Ryan would take me places. He likes having me around.

[enoughcredits]

But being wrong is what separates us from robots.

Yeah, I noticed. He asked you to prom.

[theplaymaker]

Being able to break Asimov's laws is what separates us from robots.

He did. For the record, he thought he might not be entirely gay at the time.

[enoughcredits]

See? This is where you should stop thinking and start living because I have no idea what that even is.

There was a time he thought he was actually straight? Was he okay?

[theplaymaker]

I'm a nerd, ignore it.

Not straight. He just thought he liked me. I don't know, he probably had temporary insanity.

[enoughcredits]

It's cute.

Does that mean that Chad was temporarily insane when he was dating Taylor?
