Oooh, send, send! I've got the strangest feeling you sing nicer than you imagine.
As for Conseil, you've hit upon something very curious there. I've always felt like another Jules Verne character (Passepartout, from Around the World in 80 Days, whose name means "master key" if you put an accent on the E) but Passepartout and Conseil strike me as pretty much the same character; the wise servant who smoothes the way.
I'm very flattered someone sees me the way I see myself. Makes you the wise one!
I have my moments. I'll start practicing again. Haha.
Well that's a shocker. I thought you'd find my comment odd. I'm glad I'm not crazy! I have never read his work in the past and have only just started this book. I have one other book by him (The Mysterious Island) and quite frankly I plan to get more! He's a magnificent and intellectual writer and it's quite captivating. He definitely knows how to keep me wanting more.
Well I'm not so much wise as I am observant. I don't know you too well but it was a feeling and I guess I hit the spot. I am just happy it wasn't an outrageous claim.
He's amazing, isn't he? Reading his books now, it's difficult to guess he was born nearly 200 years ago. He predicted the internet, high speed trains, skyscrapers, space travel. The only other writer I know who was as far ahead of his time was Aldous Huxley.
You'll hate me when you finish The Mysterious Island, by the way. It's a bit anti-English. :P Just keep thinking Conseil!
Hehe, when I was a kid, they showed a lot of dramatisations on TV and I thought he was some visionary talking about the future. I kept waiting to see what he'd come up with next and I didn't know he'd been dead for over a hundred years. I honestly believe my love of science has a lot to do with him.
As for me, I've got more flaws than you can shake a stick at! In fact, I've got more flaws than you could shake three sticks at. And, given you only have two hands, I really don't know what you're using to shake the third stick!
So he was popular like Nostradamus was? I never actually heard of Jules until last week, so this is quite informative. That's a neat way to get your inspiration!
If you are telling the truth, I'm sure there are plenty of ways to shake all 3 at ones.. just have to get creative!
Maybe it's a European thing. He's from the next country along, after all.
I'm struggling with very bad thoughts of you and three sticks so, for the sake of my sanity, I'm now choosing to believe you've employed someone to wave the third stick for you. :P
Do you have favorite song?

All of this is in his books? That IS amazing. He must be a witch.. Hah.
Well I'm sure I'd love you all the same. I would just conclude that you aren't 100% like these characters and they are flawed unlike sir dappled!
