{Unfortunately, Diva got lame languages that have no translators. SAD. Anyways, she is babbling on sourly in Fa’Dielian, and wearing a lovely party dress}

Ne, honestly! Another thing gone wrong! Terrible, terrible, terrible!

Oh, I was in the middle of talking to such a lovely young man too, then all of the sudden this foul sounding language comes out?! I am growing tired of all this nonsense, and I assume it is the Twins fault. Really, could you have picked a better time? I might have gotten someone good to sleep with tonight~ { :'( }

{She places her hands on her hips before she sighs and starts to go over to the bar} I might as well drink a little while I'm here. This party has terrible drinks. It's all so cheap. And unless it's just my luck, I imagine that other people are having problems too.

{OH GOD SPEAKING MATH?!} Um...I definitely don't understand that at all, Hei.

[contract_star]

I don't know what you're saying.

But...why did I switch? I didn't even notice...

[Sighs.] I'm too tired for this.

[madamemoiselle]

{Starts to babble on in Tibetan} You look tired, Hei. Have you been eating enough? Ne, I could bring you food again.

[contract_star]

[In Gallifreyan,] ...Wait. I understood that.

[Switches to Tibetan.] Can you understand me now?

[madamemoiselle]

Oh, yay, you have one of mine!

[contract_star]

I guess. Does everyone have two, or something?

[madamemoiselle]

Hmmm, it seems like it. It's such a pain, though.

[contract_star]

[Sighs.] It's annoying.

At least some of us can understand each other.

[madamemoiselle]

Definitely. But, unfortunately, I guess it's just how it'll be for a few days.

{She pours another glass and offers it to him} Wine?

[contract_star]

Wonderful.

[Stares at it for a moment before taking it rather tentatively.] ...Thanks.

[And he downs the whole thing in one gulp, wincing.]

[madamemoiselle]

Not even wine? I guess you don't like the alcohol?

[contract_star]

[Sets the empty glass down a bit shakily. Oh Hei you lightweight~] I don't drink very often.

[madamemoiselle]

I can tell. {Smiles} But it's fun to go drinking~ You should!

[contract_star]

No, it's...I don't really think of it as fun.

[madamemoiselle]

You don't? Why is that?

[contract_star]

Because...because I need to be focused most of the time, and aware of my surroundings and...that doesn't really work when you're drunk.

[Eyes the various bottles.] But sometimes...

[madamemoiselle]

Well, that makes sense.

But, you know, when I ask people why they drink, most of them say it's to forget problems, or something like that. Drink until you can't feel anymore, right?

[contract_star]

At this point I just...I just want to sleep.

[madamemoiselle]

Sleep? {Softly} Well, if that's what you want, you could go sleep in that theatre for as long as you want. I could make sure no one bothers you.

[contract_star]

That's...it's not really...that easy.

[madamemoiselle]

{She pours him another glass} Then what does Hei mean?

[contract_star]

[Takes it and drinks it a bit slower this time.]

I...I haven't really...been able to sleep, since then.

[madamemoiselle]

Oh...{She glances over to him} Nightmares?

[contract_star]

...Not...just that.

[madamemoiselle]

Then what else?
