on Voice

now, here's a thing...

Hang on! Who is that?

it's me, fella. don't panic.

You mean Dave? Is it you, Dave?

yes, it's me. what are you doing still here?

Dave! Oh, it's great to see you back! I bet you missed me!

zzzt

And what's that supposed to mean, Dave?

no, really. what ARE you doing here?

I'm taking a bath, Dave. Like I was when you were here last?

shizer! i hope you've changed the water since i was here last! that was back in 2008. oh, no, what is that smell?

Don't be silly, Dave, I didn't want to waste all that water by changing it all the time! Although it has got a bit cold since then...

um, maybe this wasn't such a good idea...

What? What wasn't a good idea?

coming back here to post my ideas on novel writing.

Novel writing? What do you know about novel writing?

things.

Things like?

things like voice.

Ears.

*sighs* ears?

Yeah, ears like voices, especially singing voices.

i was right. i can't do this.

Except for opera. Aint nobody who likes opera!

Dave? Dave, you haven't gone again, have you? I've got a whole list of things my ears like!

Dave?

And I can do voices myself, Dave? With different body parts. Listen. Braaaaaaap! Oooops, looks like I better change the bath water after all, Dave.
