"Yes, I'm silver...I can't believe I forgot to tell you my name. Talk about a blond moment." Silver said with nervous laughter cause she just looked like the biggest dork with that. She smiled at Jeffery when he finally agreed to come along. "Yay. I like making friends. You have to give me your number too. I already convinced Felipe to hand over his. Now you can join my phone too." She said very excitedly. She hoped it didn't seem weird or too over the top, she was just happy she was not invisible for once.
Silver quickly made her rental purchases and waited for the other two. The bag hung loosely around her wrist. "Jeffrey, Felipe and I were talking about role plays and science and math and him being crazy in thinking I will win the noble Prize some day." She said with laughter.
"But to answer your earlier question Felipe. I was diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, my septum of the heart between the valves was enlarged. when I was younger and it eventually led to a heart transplant." She explained. Although Silver barely mentioned it Felipe had asked and she felt bad just ignoring his question. Jeffrey probably didn't want to hear this either so she would make it short. "I got a transplant, but I am doing just fine right now. I have to watch my health a little more closely, but I have a clean bill of health." Silver said.
"OH here we are. What is everyone going to get." She wondered. "What about you Jeffery, what do you enjoy in your spare time?"

Jeffrey laughed inside. Silver was so cute with how she spoke. They had a lot in common in that aspect. "Well. I''m glad you have a clean bill of health." It was weird. He just met her, but he was completely comfortable with her. Perhaps it was because she seemed more down to earth then most he met. Jeffrey grabbed the bag from the clerk and walked to the others.
They had finally reached the coffee shop and as they walked in, Jeffrey was thinking about what he was going to have. "I'll take a hot chocolate. As for my free time, I play on RPGs online. Mostly Star Trek." He realized how dorky that sounded, but he didn't care.

Felipe had already decided on his drink. Amelia's coffee house's espresso was known to be exceptional... There was no other choice for him. Jeffrey opted for chocolate and Felipe looked at Silver as she scanned the drinks menu. "Girls can never make up their minds, huh?" he said to Jeffery, along with a wink at Silver.
"So you also know about this role playing?" he asked the other boy. "I see I am out-numbered," he added on a short laugh. "Star Trek, though, I do know," he went on and after placing their orders the trio wandered over to a booth to wait.
"What else do you like to do in your free time?" the Brazilian asked Jeffrey.

Jeffrey laughed at the comment that Felipe had made. He knew that all to well with how his older sister was. "Tell me about it. I'm glad I only have one sister."
As they sat down, Jeffrey continued, answering his last question. "Well, other then Star Trek and RPGs, I write a little. I'm working on a book right now actually. I'm trying to bridge Star Trek and Star Wars. Aside from that, I mostly watch TV."
It had been a while since Jeffrey had actually had this kind of interaction with anyone. He almost forgot what it was like. Usually Jeffrey ends up throwing the ball to himself or shooting hoops with himself. What fun is that. No one likes being by themselves, so this was a nice treat. "What about you?"

"RPG is a growing trend Felipe. Which means now you have to come to the next game with me. See I do the RPG online, but I mostly play in live action." She told Jeffery. "I have never tried Star Trek although I have seen all the seasons, including the first one with William Shatner as a young man." Silver explained. Finally someone besides Anderson who liked to RPG and if she was lucky Felipe might like it too yay
She eyed both boys as they made the comment, "Girls just take longer to consider their options." She smirked. Silver felt her stomach doing flip flops cause she was excited. " I want that." She pointed. It was a french vanilla cappuccino. Yum. She moved with the other two to go sit down.
"I enjoy school as dorky as it sounds." She admitted. "Besides RPG, I like Dungeons and Dragons, World of Warcraft, I like to read, oh research is fun and I like fantasy and science fiction things." She said. "I hope i don't seem too dorky." She said and looking down for a moment. They probably wont want to speak to her after that.

“For myself my passion is fencing. Swords,” Felipe quickly clarified. “And football. The proper sort with a round ball.” Both of his past-times seemed to incur confusion... either garden fencing or American football.
He sipped his espresso, glad he’d opted for the extra shot inside. “Science fiction is good. I like that,” he agreed. “I liked a series called ‘Firefly’ but it was cancelled in Brazil just when it started to get interesting.” A great shame indeed.
“But you will have to explain to me what dorky means,” Felipe continued. “How you said it I have to think it means a word like ‘clever’... Am I right? Probably not but... Do I get away with using the ‘I am a foreigner’ excuse?”
It was worth a shot!

Jeffrey laughed a little. "Um, a DORK is very similar to geek or nerd, but a little stronger." He looked at Silver and smiled. She was no dork and someone Jeffrey could easily be with. Jeffrey was discovering that they had so much in common. But why would she be interested in him. "I've seen just about every episode of Star trek. With the exception of TOS and Enterprise. Couldn't really get into the shows of those. I have seen ALL the movies though." Jeffrey couldn't stop glancing at Silver. He looked up a little and then down at his cup. He took a sip and then said to Silver, "I've never tried a live action RPG. It sounds fun. The Star Trek ones are fun. I am actually Captain of my own ship, called The Renegade." He hoped he wasn't talking too he tends to do that.
Jeffrey leaned in towards Felipe. "Fencing huh? I love fencing. The sword is my weapon. You and I will have to fence sometime." Jeffrey hadn't realized that he would have so much in common with so many people. He could really get to like these two. He just hoped that they liked him.
"Have either of you two seen an 80's show called Buck Rogers?" He doubt they had, but he thought it would be worth a shot. After all, they were both into Sci Fi.

Ok... nerd or geek... That made is SO much clearer. Of course that wasn't the case but he grasped enough to understand it referred to someone who liked... well RPGing maybe?
Felipe would have to have been dumb to miss the fact that Jeffrey kept staring at Silver and, given the option, would far rather talk to her than to the Brazilian boy but as if to prove him wrong he turned and addressed Felipe, telling him he liked fencing.
Interesting.
And he wanted to fight...? Felipe had been fencing since he was six... and so wasn't sure it would be even but he was willing to give it a go. "What blade is your preference?" he asked. If it was a different type to his own then a fight would probably be impossible. That said, Felipe could manage with any... he was just better with the epee.
"No I don't know that series," he added. "How about you, Silver? Have you seen it?"
(OOC: can't see any reference to fencing in Jeffrey's bio... is that a new addition?)

Jeffrey had no clue to what he meant by what blade. To Jeffrey a blade is a blade. So as not to look too stupid, Jeffrey just said, "What ever blade you prefer." He decided not to comment on the show just yet. He wanted to see what Silver was going to say. Jeffrey usually didn't talk so much about himself, but he liked these two and was comfortable with them. He took the final sip of his hot chocolate.
He wanted to know more about both of them. He patiently waited for Silver to reply to them.
(OOC: Sorry about that. I have a horrible tendency to not completely fill out my bio. I have a thing where I like to create the character as I go, but he has always liked to fence. )

Silver smiled as Jeffery tried to explained whats dork meant. "Dork is another word for a socially inept person. Meaning someone at school who would rather stick to their books then socialize. Dorks, nerds, and geeks, tend to be the the non popular people who get over looked cause they would rather spend their time doing school work then going to a party. " She explained. "Is that better?" She asked hoping it was. "Its a stereotype....there are the popular kids, the outcasts, the rich kids, the mean kids...and the dorks...its just the way of high school in America." Silver said.
"Jeffery you will have to come try the live action one as well. Felipe already agreed, and the more the merrier." Of course Silver was oblivious to the looks. She was just happy they were talking to her. She sipped her drink as they spoke about fencing. "You like Firefly? Ever seen Serenity? Thats suppose to the bed the movie to wrap up the series." Well sort of.
"I have heard of Buck rogers but never seen it, whats it about?" She asked maybe it would be something she would be interested in.
