The gang all found themselves in a humorous game of Truth or Dare a few moments after Florian joined the lot, as Karl dared Wolfgang to admit to the gang how much he loves Rebekah.
"Well... more than Andelina's sugar cookies, that's for sure!" was the electrodrummer's reply, with a bashful grin to adorn his face. His next target was Johannes, and she was dared to figure out whose hands held hers. The mess of it was, it wasn't Ralf's, so she had to think for a moment before agreeing to the dare. When Florian's hands held hers she closed her gray eyes for a moment. Opening them she squeezed them for a moment.
"Certainly not Ralf's... yet similar to Elizabeth's... and it's not any of the Robots or the girls..." she said softly. "I believe they belong to Florian?"
Laughs abound, Florian nodded. "You got it, those are mine!" he confirmed. Wolfgang's jaw dropped as the blind woman smiled and picked Ralf for the challenge. When he chose Truth over Dare, she asked him what his favorite pasttime was.
"Either it was playing with robots or hanging out with the guys" he recalled, "but the piano lessons were a pain in the neck!!"
"Oh, those were the days" Florian chuckled, shaking his head.
Ralf then smiled to Alessandro, who was then picked to choose either of. After opting for the Dare, the mensch-maschine dared the boy to sing a German folk song. Alessandro, with a grin, began to sing Die Gedanken sind frei in a clear voice...
Die Gedanken sind frei, wer kann sie erraten,
sie fliegen vorbei wie nächtliche Schatten.
Kein Mensch kann sie wissen, kein Jäger erschießen
mit Pulver und Blei: Die Gedanken sind frei!
Ich denke was ich will und was mich beglücket,
doch alles in der Still', und wie es sich schicket.
Mein Wunsch, mein Begehren kann niemand verwehren,
es bleibet dabei: Die Gedanken sind frei!
Und sperrt man mich ein im finsteren Kerker,
das alles sind rein vergebliche Werke.
Denn meine Gedanken zerreißen die Schranken
und Mauern entzwei, die Gedanken sind frei!
Drum will ich auf immer den Sorgen entsagen
und will mich auch nimmer mit Grillen mehr plagen.
Man kann ja im Herzen stets lachen und scherzen
und denken dabei: Die Gedanken sind frei!
Ich liebe den Wein, mein Mädchen vor allen,
sie tut mir allein am besten gefallen.
Ich bin nicht alleine bei meinem Glas Weine,
mein Mädchen dabei: Die Gedanken sind frei!
Cheers and applause from the gang to Alessandro filled the train car, the child smiled to the guys. "Ralf, Karl, Wolfgang, Florian... Truth or Dare?" he asked.
After a quick glance and a quick nod, all four said in a firm voice, "DARE!"
The boy grinned. "I dare you four to put together an alphabet for your girlfriends," he said, "to be done within the week!"
The girls giggled, the guys blinked. Alessandro just smiled.
