Aeolus eventually wiggled free and hid behind Juliet, "is love a tender thing? it is too rough, too rude, too boisterous, and it pricks like thorn." He felt the sand between his toes as he got ready to run away. "Help, father, some guy by the name of Romeo keeps on harassing me." He twitched, how awkward and horrible it was to play Juliet....

Huh? What was Father talking about? Pray, wasn't he supposed to be saying Romeo's lines, she shrugged and responded as Mercutio,"If love be rough with you, be rough with love; p***k love for pricking, and you beat love down. Give me a case to put my visage in: A visor for a visor! what care I What curious eye doth quote deformities? Here are the beetle brows shall blush for me."
"Nay! Thy shall not run away! We must go a shark hunting!" cried Theia as she pounced on Aeolus again.

Aeolus sighed as Theia pounced on him, "...fine." Pushing her off her got up, "well, ladies first, after you, Theia." Eh, perhaps he could trick her some way or another. ...Can Theia even swim? Well, of course if she wanted to go shark hunting... He looked over at Paris, who gulped and hid, not wanting to even go near the water. Aeolus rolled is eyes, as if he was gonna make his own son be bait.
Aeolus looked at Theia again and lowered his ears, if she got her way he'd probably be the bait.

Then answering as Benvolio,"Come, knock and enter; and no sooner in, But every man betake him to his legs." She paused, and asked,"Father, we are still going to perform the play, yes?" Shark hunting, that sounded quite dangerous, how strange ideas Mother came up with!
Theia grinned happily as she bounced up and down again,"Hooray! Me first!" She paused, thinking about how in there were going to do this. How did one go fishing again? Oh, yes, bait! She continued to bounce up and down, saying,"Hey, hey, hey! Aeolus! You're gonna be ze bait, okay? Cauz all hunters must need something to lead their prey out, thus ze bait! And then ze hunters lead by me cauz I'm first, shall then pounce onto ze shark. Okay? Okay."

"Yes, yes, you just go on out there, Theia, I'll be right behind you as your bait..." He looked at Juliet again, "a torch for me: let wantons light of heart tickle the senseless rushes with their heels, for I am proverb'd with a grandsire phrase; I'll be a candle-holder, and look on. The game was ne'er so fair, and I am done." He nodded, then shrugged, not really sure actually.

"Tut, dun's the mouse, the constable's own word: If thou art dun, we'll draw thee from the mire Of this sir-reverence love, wherein thou stick'st Up to the ears. Come, we burn daylight, ho!" Juliet replied as Mercutio.
"Okay!" Theia replied happily, then continued,"Torch? Yeah, that might be a good idea, that ought ta make enough barbeque for ze shark! Game? Yup, a very fun game!" She went off splashing into the water, looking around for a shark.

"Nay, that's not so." He watched Theia, lulz, sucker... He whispered toJuliet, "how 'bout we skip to the Queen Mab speech...?" That'd make things go much faster. but then again, he'd have to meet up with Romeo, and he didn't exactly want to join Theia in the water and go shark hunting... Though, he did just want to get this horrible experience over with as quick as possible...

Juliet pouted, it was an insult to the playwriter to be skipping forward so! But she nodded, after all, the play had long gone out of hand anyways. "O, then, I see Queen Mab hath been with you. She is the fairies' midwife, and she comes In shape no bigger than an agate-stone On the fore-finger of an alderman, Drawn with a team of little atomies Athwart men's noses as they lie asleep; Her wagon-spokes made of long spiders' legs, The cover of the wings of grasshoppers, The traces of the smallest spider's web, The collars of the moonshine's watery beams, Her whip of cricket's bone, the lash of film, Her wagoner a small grey-coated gnat..." And thus she continued, until,"That plats the manes of horses in the night, And bakes the elflocks in foul sluttish hairs, Which once untangled, much misfortune bodes: This is the hag, when maids lie on their backs, That presses them and learns them first to bear, Making them women of good carriage: This is she--"
Theia turned around, noticing that nobody was following her,"Aeolus! Why aren't you following me?" She paused, they were doing that play thingy again? She bounced up and down in the water, slightly impatient.

"Aeolus already did follow you! He's a wizard, remember? I'm uh, that clone from before, remember me?" Ah, blessed memories, they sure came in handy sometimes despite being unenjoyable. He looked at Juliet again, " peace, peace, Mercutio, peace! Thou talk'st of nothing." The Queen Mab speech was considered to be the greatest speech written in Romeo and Juliet, obviously Juliet wasn't talking of nothing.

"True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy, Which is as thin of substance as the air And more inconstant than the wind, who wooes Even now the frozen bosom of the north, And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, Turning his face to the dew-dropping south." Juliet replied, rather puzzled about the wizard and clone. What was that about?
Theia blinked, that made sense,"But why would thee clone thy self? If thee shark does not see thee, how can thee be bait?"

Aeolus glanced at Juliet, telling her to not worry about. "Don't worry, Theia, real Aeolus is totally swimming around in there being all bait-like. I'll just continue being a clone and keeping the children content." He turned back to Juliet, "I fear, too early: for my mind misgives, some consequence yet hanging in the stars shall bitterly begin his fearful date, with this night's revels and expire the term of a despised life closed in my breast, by some vile forfeit of untimely death. But he, that hath the steerage of my course, direct my sail! On, lusty gentlemen." He had no idea what that meant, but that was okay.

"Strike, drum." responded 'Benvolio'. Thus, Juliet did the clipboard thingy again singaling that it was now scene five, a hall in Capulet's house. Now began the conversation between two servants,"Where's Potpan, that he helps not to take away? He shift a trencher? he scrape a trencher!" When good manners shall lie all in one or two men's hands and they unwashed too, 'tis a foul thing." "Away with the joint-stools, remove the court-cupboard, look to the plate. Good thou, save me a piece of marchpane; and, as thou lovest me, let the porter let in Susan Grindstone and Nell. Antony, and Potpan!" "Ay, boy, ready." "You are looked for and called for, asked for and sought for, in the great chamber." "We cannot be here and there too. Cheerly, boys; be brisk awhile, and the longer liver take all." Now was the entry of 'Capulet', 'Juliet', and 'many others'.
Theia nodded,"Oh, okay." She wandered about in the water looking for a shark fin. Little did she see a gray fin portudding several meters to her right.

Aeolus was about to speak, till he saw the dorsal fin. "Theia, watch your right!!!" He quickly ran over and began to swim to them. He didn't know if it was a shark or not, but he wasn't going to take any chances!
Quickly he grabbed the scruff of her neck and began to pull her back, "if you're going shark hunting at least pay attention!" He looked at the fin, sure hoping it was just a dolphin. Man, I knew it! If it's Theia, it's bound to happen!

Juliet blinked. A shark, a real genuine shark? Was that even possible? She directed her gaze towards the direction of the dorsal fin. Heh, heh, heh...was it definitely not her imagintaion? Perhaps it was just a dolphin...?
Theia blinked, and turned around. There was a big gray fin! She gasped happily,"Tis a shark! We have found ze sh-" But got interrupted in the middle of her exclamation by Aeolus who pulled her back. Pouting,"Okay. You are going to help, yush? We are all going to pounce on ze shark and thus, capturing it!"

Aeolus rolled his eyes, "are you joking!? No! Now leave the wild life alone, before that thing get curious and starts chewing on us. Shark or not shark, I want you to stay away and alive." Without waiting for an answer he began to pull her back despite any protests and struggles he would receive. That thing had better just be a dolphin or we're dead meat...
