Britta's brow wrinkled at Dhivael's explanation of her studies. "I think you'll find that a lot of what we Earthlings do is because of an emotion. Take sex, for example. There might be a lot of lust involved with a first encounter, but sometimes the aftereffects evoke regret, or guilt. And desire is an emotion, right? A lot of that is present during sex, or making out. And people participate in all sorts of activities because it makes them happy, that's an emotion, right? You've certainly got your work cut out for you." She smiled, thanking every God there was that she wasn't an alien sent here to study the Earthlings.
She finished off the last of her pasta and green beans and then glanced back up at the extraterrestrial. "A little, I guess. There's enough nature here to make me comfortable, but I do miss my mother from time to time. We don't have a typical mother and daughter relationship, it's sort of complicated really. I love her, but she drives me completely nuts." Mostly because her mother was insanely competitive when it came to potential fuck buddies. If she went out with her mother somewhere, Veronica Von Croy would make sure she was the center of attention, actively competing for the attention her daughter was getting. It was idiotic, but Britta knew it was because her mother was getting older and feeling more insecure about her looks.
"Studying? Are you serious? Studying is not fun. I mean, it might make you feel accomplished and stuff, but it is definitely not fun. I am going to go out on a limb here and suggest that you haven't been to a party nor done anything remotely fun since you've been here. I, on the other hand, have had quite a bit of fun this summer. I went to the mall and then went on a hike and then... then I had a lot of fun rolling around in the mud with that friend." She smiled with a little glint in her eye. "I also enjoy going to parties and swimming, like Kay here. Making out, playing games and movies is also fun. Sex is what I enjoy the most, though. I know it makes me sound like a whore to say it, but it's in my nature and I could really give a fuck what other people think." She smiled again and leaned back in her chair.
"Stick with us, Dhivael, and we'll make sure you have a good time at school. Your experience at Alden will be amazing, I guarantee it."
