*Daemon and Arrmaduke.*
*Daemon goes to Arrmaduke's place and knocks on the door.  Arrmaduke opens the door, groggily*
Daemon-Sorry, did I wake you?
Arrmaduke- Daemon, the sun's down. I was up anyway, but it takes me a little while to fully wake.
Daemon-Oh, sorry.
Arrmaduke- Quite alright, grandson,
Daemon-I just wanted to talk to you about my father.
Arrmaduke- what about him? Please, come in!  Make yourself comfortable!  Want anything to eat or drink?
Daemon-Uh, sure! You got any drink that relax?
Arrmaduke- *Chuckles* sure do! But I'm afraid it may be a little strong for you. Wouldn't want you to hurt yourself.
Daemon-Yeah, I guess you're right. You got anything that I COULD handle?
Arrmaduke- I think I might
Daemon-Cool.
Arrmaduke- *Goes rumaging in the liquer cabinet*  Will rum do?
Daemon-I guess, but I've never had it before.
Arrmaduke- well, you take it in small amounts, or shots.
Daemon-I knew that much, I just never drank it before.
Arrmaduke- well, can you guess why you drink it in small amounts?
Daemon-Really potent stuff?
Arrmaduke- Exactly!  but, the very forst time I had it, it wasn't as bad as people make it out to be.  want a swig?
Daemon-Sure.  *Daemon drinks it and coughs like everything*
Arrmaduke- Ah, 1820. good year! here! *Pours him a shot, and himself one*
*Arrmaduke laughs and goes to get Daemon water*
Daemon-What's so funny? *cough, cough*
Arrmaduke- Well, I've seen young boys give that very same reaction!  you're no boy. You're a man, and that reaction was a little off!
Daemon-Hey, what do ya expect! I've never had the stuff before!
Arrmaduke- heh, yeah well, I was but a boy when I had my forst and I liked it right off!
Daemon-Ah, well, maybe you had the stomach for it.  I'm used to beer though, but I guess that don't count.
Arrmaduke- Beer is rather weak, but good for parties.
Daemon-Yeah, just had a party yesterday.
Arrmaduke- really?! What'd you do?
Daemon-Had a superbowl party! A couple people passed out 'cause they were so drunk!
Arrmaduke- "superbowl"? Is that a large bowl you praise or somehting??!
Daemon-No! Ha, ha, ha!  It's where the two best football teams get together in a big dome, kinda like the Roman Coluseum and play a game against one another to see who's the best team in the world.
Arrmaduke- is it anyhting like Gladiators???
Daemon-Not exactly, even though the men playing the game are pretty big and tough. But they throw around some pig hide.
Arrmaduke- really? Doesn't that hurt the pig?
Daemon-It's just pig hide taken off a dead pig, it's sanitized and everything, stitched up and filled with air.
Arrmaduke- AIR??!!!
Daemon-Yeah.  Just like a basketball.
Arrmaduke- what's that?
Daemon-No body's told you nothin'!
Arrmaduke- nope :-(
Daemon-The best way to learn about the various sports that we play in this age is to play them.
Arrmaduke- o-kay...
Daemon-I'll show ya how to play them, from what I know anyway. Either that or we can watch them on tv. Just stay away from tennis and golf, those are two of the most boring sports to watch!
Arrmaduke- umm...o-kay?
Daemon-I hope I didn't confuse you too much!
Arrmaduke-...
Daemon-I'm sorry, no hard feelings?
Arrmaduke- no, of course not!
Daemon-Okay, cool!  So what did you do for fun in the past?
Arrmaduke- target practice, hunting, ...
Daemon-Ah, that reminds me of Wolf. You know her, right?
Arrmaduke- umm...at the very least I know whom you are talking about
Daemon-Timberland's mother?
Arrmaduke- yes, I know. What about her?
Daemon-She likes to do target practice as well. I don't think she hunts though. If she did, she'd make a killing, ha, ha, ha!
Arrmaduke- heh, heh, heh  *Mildly amused*
Daemon-So, did you ever go to any of those Gladiator events?
Arrmaduke- yes! Very bloody, some of them...
Daemon-Weren't those matches pretty much to the death?
Arrmaduke-...yes.  but I mean, some were dismemberments
Daemon-Ouch!
Arrmaduke- well, the contestants never felt it coming.
Daemon-I bet not if they were beheaded!
Arrmaduke- yes, quite  but what brings you to my humble abode?
Daemon-Oh yeah, kinda got off the subject, and that is my father.
Arrmaduke-...and...?
Daemon-Well, I kinda yelled at him for something he said earlier today.
Arrmaduke- really!?
Daemon-Yeah.
Arrmaduke- what over?
Daemon-Well, he said that he made his wives think he was "sick", so they felt bad for him. He took advantage of the situation, if you know what I mean.
