May 16th: Markings on a map

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Feb 01, 2011 8:08 pm

Sean sat in a quieter part of the XUB, staring at a list of seemingly random locations. He leaned back and sighed before reaching for his half empty glass.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 5:47 pm

Altamira walked in, looking around.

"Hello, hello," she said to the person she had never seen before.

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 9:51 pm

Sean closed his notebook, and looked up at Altamira a big friendly smile on his face.

"Hi," Sean said, "I'm not in your spot or anything am I?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 10:22 pm

"Oh, not at all. Just a new face around here, you know?"

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 10:28 pm

"A welcoming committee?" Sean asked, "Take a seat, have a drink."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 10:31 pm

"Not quite, just a friendly face!" she smiled, sitting down.

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 10:37 pm

"I'm Sean Hall," Sean said, "It's nice to meet you..."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 10:43 pm

"Altamira Vazquez," she smiled.

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 10:44 pm

"The Phoenix, right?" Sean asked

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 3:15 pm

"I am, yes."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 3:44 pm

"I'm sure you're getting tired of being asked that by everybody," Sean smiled, "After all you're Altamira first, Phoenix second, right?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 3:48 pm

"I try to be, at least," she smiled

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 9:42 pm

"So is Altamira following the world cup?" Sean smiled.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 11:24 pm

"Spain is going to win," she said, matter of factly.

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 11:28 pm

"Is that a fact?" Sean smirked.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 11:44 pm

"Well, we are the best!"

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 11:57 pm

Sean chuckled.

"Pretty confident for somebody backing a team that hasn't played anybody good yet," Sean said.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 12:24 am

"Oh, but we beat Ireland and Sweden and Symkaria and Latvia and Azerbaijan and everything!"

by **Sean Hall** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 12:29 am

"Other than Ireland none of those teams qualified," Sean said.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 12:36 am

"Cause we beat them!"

by **Sean Hall** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 12:51 am

"Because they were awful," Sean said, "I mean when was the last time Sweden's team did anything? 1994?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 1:06 am

"More like 2012!"

by **Sean Hall** » Sun Feb 20, 2011 4:48 pm

"All they did was make it the round of 16," Sean smirked.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Feb 20, 2011 10:48 pm

"Better than many countries!"

by **Sean Hall** » Sun Feb 20, 2011 11:54 pm

"But not a sign of a great team," Sean smiled.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 12:11 am

"Like Spain is!"

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 12:15 am

"I think this is where I just give in isn't it?" Sean asked with a grin.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 12:27 am

"Probably, yes."

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 12:30 am

"Probably for the best," Sean said, "I was just about out of football knowledge."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 1:12 am

"Oh, that IS a pity. Would you like some more?"

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 1:15 am

"Are you offering football lessons now?" Sean asked.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 1:45 am

"Not exactly. Would you like to go to a match? I have tickets, but no one to go with for this one!"

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 1:50 am

"That's very generous," Sean said wrong footed for a moment, "Which match?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 4:15 am

"Spain, of course. Versus Australia," she smiled.

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 9:39 pm

"Should be a good game, I'm in," Sean said, "Do you often ask people you just met to go to matches with you?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 9:47 pm

"No, but then, I don't normally have tickets to matches!"

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 9:51 pm

"Good a reason as any," Sean said, "So aside from following the cup what do you do for fun?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 10:50 pm

"Oh, lots of things! Like science and art and history and things!"

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 10:54 pm

"And things?" Sean asked.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 11:25 pm

"Indeed!"
