There is a campfire(?) in the center. Dawn <br /> has her hand placed on a simple metal box-shaped machine. Socrates sits slightly apart. Luna <br /> watches Dawn and Madeleine. Madeleine examines a slip of paper feeding out of the machine). <br /> Socrates: I am one of the few honest people that I have ever known. <br /> Machine buzzes angrily. <br /> Madeleine (pulls the paper feed further out and examines, reading): It says... true. <br /> Dawn: Must be broken. When have you ever told the truth? <br /> Madeleine: You wouldn't be able to tell the difference Dawn. <br /> Dawn: Shut up,I'm not stupid. (To Socrates) Don't smirk,being Madeleine's favorite doesn't <br /> make you special,just her brother.You're full of shit. <br /> Socrates (dryly, sadly): Perhaps iamb, it's not my place to tell; (condescendingly, mockingly) of <br /> us,who understands our present clime? <br />
