Mun is perhaps a little TOO excited about the new Lorax film...

... Now you're just being ridiculous. You can't even wait until Friday?

Mine couldn't wait until I showed up, either. She'd been planning this for at least a month.

Ahh yeah well um. Yeah. It's sort of insane. What's she gonna do if she ends up hating my movie?

Who's to say that she can't still play you as a book character?

Iiiii don't think she wants to though. Something about not wanting to play a pair of green arms.

...Well. [That does pose quite the dilemma.] I have heard something about - alternates?

Alternates?

Yes. It's - you'd still be you, only acting like the book character. You're neither them, nor from the movie. An alternate.

Of course she can't!

Because if she waits too long, she'll be tardy!

That's... convenient. Also just a teeny tiny bit terrifying.

Why? You wouldn't change at all from the way you are now.

I think in this case, her waiting would put her on time, not tardy. All she's been able to see of me are a few little videos. Well, okay, well she's also heard my songs. But that only slightly a little bit counts for anything.

How do you know though? What if she decides to change me completely? I don't know if I trust this woman.

She likes you like this, doesn't she?

That doesn't mean she might not change me anyway.

Right now, you're how she thinks you'll be, right? And if she's wrong, and you're entirely different - a way that she doesn't like, then she certainly wouldn't put you in that position. And you wouldn't want to be that, anyway.

Right. Well. Yes. Yeah, I guess.

... So what's your name?

Trust me. Stop worrying.

Belle, sir. [polite curtsy.] And you?

[Oh gee wow super polite. COLOR HIM IMPRESSED.]

I'm the Once-ler.

Soooo, Belle. I don't suppose you're in the market for a Thneed, are you?

A pleasure to meet you. [yeah she does that she's a pretty cool girl etc.]

A - I'm sorry, a what?

A Thneed! [Oh and look, he pulls one out of... his pocket? Hammerspace? Somewhere. WHAT A FINE PIECE OF KNITWEAR.]

It's a Fine-Something-That-All-People-Need. Just $3.98, for you.

[WELL IT'S INTERESTING TO SAY THE LEAST. even if she. doesn't. get it.]

Does it do anything in particular?

More like, what doesn't it do? It's a scarf, a sock, a net for catching butterflies, a bicycle seat cover, a jump rope, a hat, a throw rug, curtains, security blanket, anything really.

Could it, say, help me clean? [and lol what the hell would rumplestiltskin's reaction to that be.]

Well duh. Just tie one end to a stick and voila, instant moppity mop action!

[Well maybe if Rumpleface had a Thneed he would be happier and less insane.]

And where did you discover this? [at this point, she'll humor him. because it's amusing. but don't tell that she doesn't have any money shhhh.]

I invented them! [And he's DAMN PROUD of that fact too.]

Invented? [okay, they might only be silly knitted things, but that is just plain precious.] And you seem to be making quite the business venture out of them.

Well, you know what they say! Business must grow.

So, uh, what about you? What do you do?

I - [wow it feels so weird saying this. she's never gotten the chance to actually tell someone before.] I work for a man as his housekeeper.

[Yeah watch as he totally doesn't catch alllll the awkwardness behind that sentence.] Oh! I guess that's why you were asking about cleaning, huh? They're very durable, by the way.

Oh, I can tell. They look it.

[pause. well. i guess she has to shatter his dreams, now.]

It just that I don't have any money.
