Re: Sleigh 7: Cal, Peter M (UTC -5 to -6)
Peter nodded. "That's the gist of it," he said and gave it no more thought. It was for him just a story and a way for parents to get their kids to settle down and behave during the hectic holiday season. The fact that it was real here was cool and all, but a bit weird.
"Hello BD-1," Peter said with a little wave and listened to all the beeps and bloops and wondered what in the world the droid was saying. Good things he hoped but would never really know. The droid did seem friendly enough and he was kind of excited to see what it could do and maybe learn more about what kind of world Cal came from. It had to be alright, he figured. Cool robots and the like.
"That works for me," he said with an air cocky arrogance. He couldn't wait to go for a run and maybe in some small way it might balance the scales some. Delivering presents instead of taking things he wanted as he needed for a change. He hadn't had to need or want to do that sort of thing anymore but he had at one time. Why not make amends for past misdeeds and all that other trash, he figured.
"Never heard that saying before. Most plans are just Peter run really fast. At least where I come from. That's when there is a plan and plans often change."
