"Of course I will."
Partly, Richard enjoyed telling Alex stories. It kept her entertained, and it made him recall things that he had forgotten. Things that had happened long ago, that he would have forgotten completely if not for Alex probing him for information. Sometimes he made them more detailed than they had originally been, however, he had lived a long time. Interesting things had happened in that time. "What story do you want me to tell you?" he asked, looking down at the curl that was curled up next to him, wrapped in a blanket. The rain had been oddly cold, but he passed it off as the time of the year. What was the time of the year on the Island, anyway? The Island didn't really have seasons.

She grinned again, getting settled on the couch as she pondered which story she wanted him to tell her. She loved them all, so it was hard for Alex to choose just one.
"Hmm..... What about the one about the pirates?" She asked after a moment, looking back up at him as she pulled the blanket around her. "Can you tell me that one?"
