Character Chatter #3

Okay, okay I did it again. I missed posting this yesterday when it should've been up. So sue me!

First meet the characters (you should know them by now, they're the same as the previous weeks - from my upcoming novel The Clockwork Universe):

Rue: She's stubborn, snarky, acerbic - a tomboy of a teenage girl trapped in a Victorian-esque society of lady-like behaviour.

Kieran: Rue's guardian. an inventor/scientist, all round clever guy. Mild mannered, soft spoken, polite.

This week's question (all thanks to Austine at The Magick Pen) is:

Would you rather have super strength or super intelligence?

Rue: Super strength. Definitely.
Kieran: Why, intelligence of course! It's more important than strength, that much is obvious ot anyone. You can think your way out of any troublesome situation you may find yourself in.
Rue: No, you can fight your way out of anything! It would help if you had some big swords, or guns...
Kieran: We've talked about this before...
Rue: How are you going to use super intelligence to help you if an army of those metal men are heading straight for you? you can't, that's what. Only super strength would work. Don't be an old fuddy-duddy.
Kieran: I am NOT a fuddy-duddy! Do you even know what that means?
Rue: Of course. I don't need any super intelligence to know that you're a dull old geezer!
Kieran: I don't have to sit here and take this *stalks off*
Rue: *pouts* Fine then! I can continue talking about my weapons and my super strength with out!
