#297 + ()/21 - [ Report ]
From an LJ of someone I met at Swarthmore:
[Lauren walks into room]
Woman: [reading e-mail] ...so she wants to know if she can have an extension on her paper.
Cothren: GOD! If she walked in here right now, that would be legitimate grounds for MURDER!
Woman: You think?
Cothren: I would do it with my own hands. If you promised not to tell the authorities. [Lauren titters nervously] I'm so sorry, why are you here?
Lauren: I'm a prospective Art History major?
Cothren: WONDERFUL! I didn't think we were going to have any. Please... er, could you please not tell anybody about the exchange you just overheard? I would, you know, appreciate... [Lauren shakes head] We'll be great friends, then! Into my office across the way?
Woman: If he tries anything funny, just scream and I'll hear you.
Cothren: [looking back, cackling] I know enough to gag the poor girl first. Really now.
