It is most certainly too late. [See? This is becoming easier. Really, once things click with Archie, he's the easiest guy int he world to get along with, and that click has allllmost happened. Either way, Norrington is going to learn just how talkative Archie can be.] Back then, I had the good fortune to fall desperately in love with an actress. Of course when you're that age, everything is a terribly grave affair, so I sneaked to her dressing-room to see if I could talk to her or catch even a glimpse of my divine romantic heroine. Her servant nearly gave me a sound beating when he caught me, but the goddess herself came to my rescue. She said to me that if I wanted to be an actor, I had to have more love for the stage than for the plays. Gave me a good deal to think about. I remain content to be a lover of the art rather than a participant. Truth is, I prefer it, although my dear mother would tell you I was an actor from birth. Any time there was trouble, at least.
