[It's the middle of the day, and somehow Tomas is awake?? There are various sheets spread out on his desk while he types away on his laptop. If you look closer, there are a few newspapers sticking out as well, mostly the sports pages.]

They didn't place again this year... Guess I'll keep an eye on SD State... or maybe UCI... Gonzaga...

[When he realizes the feed is on, he quickly shuts his laptop.]

Ah-! Good afternoon, everyone. I hope you're enjoying your afternoon. Speaking of, we'll be discussing Julius Caesar and anachronisms in writing. Be prepared to show examples.

Thank you, and beware the Ides of March.

So what does it mean? What's supposed to happen?

[voice]

[dandyelegance]

I won't spoil it, because it has to do with the main conspiracy in the story.

[voice]

[tofudog]

C'mooon, it's not like I'm actually going to read it.

[Tomas is just going to stare for a moment. Luckily Beast Boy can't see him.]

Would you at least be willing to give it a chance if it was a stage play or movie?

[voice]

[tofudog]

Totally! Watching is way better than reading.

[You can practically hear Tomas facepalming.]

There are several movie and television adaptations. I'm partial to the 2002 mini-series.

Do they still talk all funny in that one, or is it like She's The Man where they sound like real people?

[voice]

[dandyelegance]

They do "talk funny" in the mini-series.

[He doesn't have the heart to tell the kid that She's the Man was inspired by another Shakespeare play.]

[tofudog]

Aw maaaan. How's a guy supposed to follow the story if he can't tell what they're saying?

[voice]

[dandyelegance]

They are still speaking English, just with an accent.

[voice]

[tofudog]

[He puts on an atrocious English accent.]

Forsooth! This ist barely Englisheth. This ist verily enough to give mine noggin a pain tremendous.

[Although, now that he's giving it a shot, it's kinda fun.]

[voice]

[dandyelegance]

[Tomas is experiencing that pain tremendous in his head right now.]

I hope you focus more on the story and not how "funny" they talk.

[voice]

[tofudog]

Are there at least big swordfights in this one?

[voice]

[dandyelegance]

It's more of a drama, but there is one intense knife attack.
