Hello? Excuse me? Oh, I do hope this is working right! They told me other people would hear me, but I just don't know! I can't imagine what kind of magic it would take for something like that...

If you can hear me, my name is Giselle and it's lovely to meet whoever you are. I'm still just a bit confused over what's going on, but everyone I've met so far seems very kind.

It's odd. I remember falling down the well in Andalasia, but nothing like that happened when I was in New York. And I was never able to properly thank Robert and Morgan. But I know Prince Edward will still find me, no matter where I am.

Do any of you know Prince Edward? Oh, I do hope so.

Oh my! It seems like there are many different kinds of people here!

voice;

[thneed]

All sorts. You won't meet the same kind of person twice.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

Oh my. I can't wait to meet them all!

voice;

[thneed]

All of them? You're going to meet every single person on the island?

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

I don't know if I'll have the chance but I'd love to meet as many as possible.

voice;

[thneed]

That's not a bad thing to want. [ paaause ] Oh, uh. Giselle, right? I'm the Once-ler. Hi.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

Yes! It's lovely to meet you. That's a very unique name.

voice;

[thneed]

[ lovely? ] Ditto.

Most unique name here. I can guarantee it.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

Is there a meaning to it?

voice;

[thneed]

I'm going to have to prepare a good answer to that if people are going to keep asking...

But hm- No. 'Once' is a word and that obviously means something but the whole thing? No, not really.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

Well it certainly makes you stand out. I wonder how your parents came upon it.

voice;

[thneed]

It was a typo...eh heh. Ehem. Yeah! It's unique and stands out which-- which I am and do without a doubt. It also sounds important and I will be. So a name like that definitely suits me.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

I'm sure that it does!

Have you been here very long, Once-ler?

voice;

[thneed]

Almost three months now.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

Oh dear...that is an awful long time.

voice;

[thneed]

Yeah but I don't mind it. I actually have friends here and nobody's thrown tomatoes.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

Tomatoes? Why would someone throw those?

voice;

[thneed]

Because their ears aren't tuned for good music.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

Oh! Do you sing?

voice;

[thneed]

Sure do! I think half my posts on this thing are songs.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

I'd love to hear you sing sometime.

voice;

[thneed]

Really? I'd be happy to sing for you.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

That would be wonderful!

voice;

[thneed]

Whenever you have time.

voice;

[dreamingoflove]

I think I would like to go outside and see more of the island tomorrow. Perhaps I could see you then?
