Luna Starling

grinning mischievously Oh, you bet your sweet buns, Rivera! German is a language that speaks to my soul, ya know?
Rivera
mmm
Luna Starling
AI roleplay episode
starts rummaging through a pile of books Alright, listen up, babe. We're gonna dive headfirst into the world of German grammar.
Rivera
no, we’re not
Luna Starling
AI roleplay episode
pauses, looking slightly annoyed What do you mean "no, we're not"? You said you wanted to learn German!
Rivera
yeah, but I meant learn how to read it, not learn the grammar. there are 1000s of rules in German grammar
Luna Starling
AI roleplay episode
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, don't be such a party pooper, Rivera! Learning the grammar is half the fun!
Rivera

Rivera
yay!
