"Let's see... There was this once, when there was an outbreak of giant moths around where I lived. I think it was because of a miniature bush fire," Kate mused out loud, recalling the experience. "I must say I avoided them at all costs, but they were even appearing in school. One flew into my friend's classroom, and died after flying into the fan... Its wings were cut off, I think..."
Kate gave Erik an apologetic look, before giving him a gentle slap on the back. Giving a nervous laugh, he gave him a lop-sided grin, "Hey! Don't look so down! I'm just not used to the whole 'physical contact' thing. Come on, I'll tell you a joke."
"Hm... Have you heard the one about 'God's clocks collection'? About the clocks of George Bush and such?"

Erik gave a sigh of relief as Kate explained her actions. "What a relief, I thought it was because you didn't like me." There was a bit of a laugh in his voice as he spoke. He then felt embarassed of himself for the way he had just acted. If his skin wasn't covered with fur, he would've been blushing.
Kate had Erik's somplete attention and interest. He loved jokes, both listening and telling them. In fact, he always dreamed of doing stand-up comedy. "I haven't that one before, how's it go?"

"Of course I like you," Kate laughed, hoping he wouldn't take it the wrong way. Pausing, she added with a bemused grin, "You're really easy to get along with. Much better in attitude than some of the irritating and arrogant guys from my... Ex-class."
"I don't really know if you'll find it funny," Kate begun, "But I found it to be rather funny when I first heard it. Let's see... There was a guy who died and went to heaven. Once there, he saw countless clocks hanging on the wall. All of them were of the same size, but all of their hands moved differently."
She stopped, and made sure that Erik was following her words before she continued, "Thus, he asked God, 'God, why are all these clocks moving differently?', and God replied that each clock represents each human's lie. One lie will mean that the hand will move once."
"The guy looked around him and saw a clock that had moved only twice. He was shocked, but God only laughed and said that it belonged to Mother Theresa, and that it was normal for her to have told only two lies in her whole life." Kate looked serious as she continued, "The guy then asked, 'Where in heaven is President Bush's clock'? At this, God laughed again, and gave his reply..."
"Oh! I have his clock in my office as a ceiling fan!" Kate finished with a relieved sigh, glad she pulled off the joke without forgetting anything. She looked at Erik nervously, "So... Did you get it?"

Erik knew exactly what she meant when she said she liked him, but he was okay with just being friends. 'Oh well, it's a start.' he thought.
Instantly getting the punchline, Erik smiled and let out a few laugh/giggles. After he regained his composure, he said "Okay, now I got a joke. Trust me, you're gonna laugh at this one. Now, how does this one go again....oh yeah. A bus full of ugly people crashes into a truck, and everyone inside dies. They then get to meet their maker, and because of the grief they have experienced; He decides to grant them one wish each, before they enter Paradise.
They're all lined up, and God asks the first one what the wish is. "I want to be gorgeous," and so God snaps His fingers, and it is done.
The second one in line hears this and says "I want to be gorgeous too."
Another snap of His fingers and the wish is granted.
This goes on for a while but when God is halfway down the line, the last guy in line starts laughing. When there are only ten people left, this guy is rolling on the floor, laughing.
Finally, God reaches this guy and asks him what his wish will be.
The guy calms down and says: "Make 'em all ugly again."
Erik bursted into laughter as he finished, that joke always made him crack up. He kept constant watch of Kate, hoping she thought it was as funny as he did.

There was silence from the girl for a second as her brain processed the joke. She let out a soft chuckle before letting out a long string of giggles. When the joke had ended, it took her a while to figure out what Erik was trying to say, but when she finally got it, the joke had hit her hard.
"That's so cold!" Kate grinned, trying to keep a straight face. Clearing her throat, she paused before talking again. "Hey... Do you like dirty jokes? Or rather, can you stand them? I remember one I've heard from my math teacher."

Kate's silence was awkward for Erik, since people usually found the joke hilarious. He was relieved when she finally got it, because he was started to feel like he was in trouble.
"Eh, cold ones are the only ones I'm good at, I'm afraid." One of those nasty/funny grins formed on Erik's half-muzzle then. "Stand them? Back at my high school, I couldn't take two steps without hearing one. I mean, you wouldn't believe the crap I've heard."

"I actually like cold jokes... Back in my school, the boys love cold jokes so much that they say them all the time in class. You just pick them up since they like repeating these jokes as well," Kate laughed, shaking her head, "Of course, there were lots of dirty jokes floating around as well."

Erik's ears flickered as listened to Kate, noticing how similar their previous classmates were. 'Even halfway 'round the world, not a thing's different.' he thought as a smirk came to his face.
"So, you were saying that your teacher told you a dirty joke, how did it go?" he inquired.
