story
Toby: So, Wolfgang...I've been meaning to ask you...about Roxanne...
Wolfgang: What about her?
Toby: Well, I was going to ask about you and Roxanne...you know...

story
Wolfgang: We're just friends.
Toby: Are you sure?
Wolfgang: *no comment*
Toby: Okay. I was just going to say that Roxanne is one of the nicest girls I know and if you do like her then you have good taste.
Wolfgang: *no comment*

story
Wolfgang: Even if...even if I, you know, liked her...that way...I don't think she would like me back.
Toby: Why not?
Wolfgang: I'm not very handsome...I have grey hair and sometimes I have to wear glasses.
Toby: I don't know what women find attractive, but looks aren't everything.
Wolfgang: Well...that and my last girlfriend broke up with me because she thought I was boring.

story
Toby: What? She said that? Well, you're better off without her then.
Wolfgang: I wish I was a little more outgoing.
Toby: If people don't like you for who you are then it's their loss...just remember that.
Wolfgang: I guess.

Jonas joins them suddenly...
story
Jonas: Hey, Toby, can I talk to you?
Toby: Sure, what's up?
Jonas: It's about Roxanne. I understand you've known her for a long time.
Toby: All my life practically...why?
Jonas: I want to know what she's like. She's so beautiful, I just want to know all there is to know about her!

story
Toby: Whoa, slow down! Are you always in such a hurry?
Jonas: No...that's what's so strange. I've never been so moved by a beautiful woman before. I just feel like I need to do something.
Toby: Okay, okay...what you're saying is you're twitterpated.
Jonas: Huh?
Toby: Nevermind. If you really want information on Roxanne you should ask her brother.

story
Jonas: Yeah, but it's her brother. What if he wants to beat me up or something because I like his sister?
Toby: *laughs* Alex wouldn't beat you up...but his is protective of her, so maybe it's not a good idea. Listen, if you want to "win" her I'm afraid I'm not much help. I've known her for a long time, but I really don't know how to romance her.
Jonas: Oh...darn...
Wolfgang: Books.

story
Jonas and Toby: What?
Wolfgang: Books. Roxanne loves books. Especially Jane Austen books.
Jonas: Books, huh?
Wolfgang: Yes. You said you wanted to know about her and this is what I know.
Jonas: Well, that's something. So what do I do? Do either of you have any advice on how to tell her how I feel? I feel like if I try to talk to her I might faint or something.
Toby: I'd slow down if I were you. Take your time and get to know her at least. Just talk to her. But if you can't do that then write her a letter...or something.
Jonas: Well, books and letters aren't really my thing, but I'll think about it. Thanks guys. *Jonas leaves*

story
Toby: *sigh* That guy is crazy. I hope his head clears soon. And hey, if you like Roxanne, why did you help him?
Wolfgang: *no comment*
Toby: Well, I'd do something about that if I were you.
