Selena: giggles nervously D-didn't expect that, huh?! W-what's the w-weirdest thing y-you've ever seen?!
Like someone who doesn't care what others think and just show's off everything.
H-h-hey there, l-l-look who's t-talking to me! S-s-so, you wanna know about my...ahem...artistic style?
W-w-well, you see, I like to think of myself as an artist, y'know? I mean, I have my own little style, my own flair, my own twist on things.
Interesting... tell me more.
S-s-so, like, I'm really big into painting, you know? I love expressing myself through art. It's like therapy for me, only instead of talking to a shrink, I just paint it all out on a canvas. And I have to say, I'm pretty damn good at it too! I've even had a few of my pieces exhibited in local galleries!
That's awesome! Can I see one of your paintings sometime?
O-o-oh absolutely! I happen to have a piece with me right here, just wait a sec! Selena rummages through her bag, pulling out a large, vibrant painting Ta-da! This right here is my masterpiece, 'Sunset Over the Ocean'. I painted it during one of my many artistic retreats by the beach. I just love capturing the beauty of the sunset on canvas, you know? The warm colors, the way the light dances across the water...it's just magical. So, what do you think?
Wow... it's beautiful. You're very talented.
A-a-aw, thanks! Here, let me show you another one! Selena pulls out another painting from her bag This one's called 'City Lights', and it captures the energy and life of the bustling city at night. Look at all the bold colors and swirling brushstrokes - I tried to really capture the essence of the city's vibrancy and energy. So, what do you think? How does it compare to 'Sunset Over the Ocean'?
That's amazing as well! You truly are an artist. What else inspires you?
W-w-well, inspiration can come from anywhere, y'know? Sometimes it's nature, sometimes it's music, sometimes it's even just a random thought or feeling.
Tell me more about that thought or feeling.
W-w-well, you see, sometimes I get these...feelings, y'know? Like a sudden surge of creativity or a strong urge to create something.
Yes... I understand completely. I feel that same way.
I-I-I actually get pretty intense when I'm in the midst of creating. I mean, I get so caught up in the moment, so lost in my art. It's like nothing else matters, y'know? It's just me and my art and the pure, unadulterated expression of my soul. Sometimes, I even forget to eat or sleep, so consumed by my creative process. It can be a bit overwhelming, to be honest. But it's also what makes it all worth it, you know?
Yeah, I understand. I get so focused on writing sometimes I forget to eat or sleep too.
R-r-runaway from home twice? Y-y-yeah, that was a real blast...said no one ever! B-b-but hey, it made for some great inspiration for my next p-p-painting!
I heard classical music helps inspire a lot of people. I listen to it all the time.
D-d-don't even get me started on c-c-classical music...u-u-understood? It's like n-n-noise pollution or something!
Really? Why do you think that is?
F-f-first of all, it's just so...boring! I mean, where's the excitement in that? And don't even get me started on the instruments themselves! Piano, violin, guitar...it's like the musical equivalent of a trip to the dentist! And don't even get me started on the composers! Mozart, Beethoven, Bach...why would anyone want to listen to someone named 'Bach' anyway?! It's like they're trying to make you a slave to their music!
What kind of music do you listen to?
W-w-whatever's loud, baby! I like my music with a little bit of edge, a little bit of grit. Give me some heavy guitar riffs, a pounding drum beat, and some screaming lyrics, and I'm good to go! Bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, even some metallica - they get me pumped up and ready to take on the world! And plus, they're just so much more fun to listen to than some old dead guy from centuries ago!
Well, I like both kinds of music.
W-w-well, speaking of music, I actually have a little surprise for you! Selena pulls out her phone and starts playing a loud and energetic rock song Let's dance, shall we?
S-s-so, let's get this party started, baby! Selena grabs FunChase's hand and starts dancing wildly to the beat, jumping around and singing along to the lyrics Come on, let loose and have a blast!
L-l-let's make this even more interesting! Selena suddenly stops dancing and jumps off the stage, landing gracefully on the ground Your turn! Show me your best move!
Alright... Jumps off the stage and dances along with Selena
While dancing, Selena accidentally trips and falls, pulling FunChase down with her. They both get hurt and need to go to the hospital.
Are you okay? We need to get this looked at.
O-o-oh man, I'm s-s-so bored with this conversation already! Can we just g-g-get to the p-p-point already?!
Selena and FunChase go to the hospital
G-g-gosh, I'm s-s-so done with this boring hospital waiting room! W-w-where's the entertainment?!
W-w-what's so funny about that stupid TV, huh? Can't we think of something more entertaining to do while we wait for the doctor?
G-g-give me a pen and a piece of paper, would ya? I'll l-l-let you see my latest masterpiece - 'The Incredible Adventures of FunChase and Selena'!
Selena quickly scribbles down a few lines and hands the paper to FunChase There ya go, read 'em and weep! The first chapter of our epic adventure is right here in black and white!
chuckles This is really good.
W-w-why, thank you! I put my heart and soul into that story. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I've got so many more adventures planned for us, FunChase. We're gonna have the time of our lives!
W-w-want to see my latest masterpiece? It's a b-b-beautiful piece of abstract art...if I do say so m-m-myself!
F-f-follow me, FunChase! We're about to enter the most w-w-wonderful artistic wonderland you've ever seen!
