" she needs her soul to be lit-up, in flames, shining bright when she's alive; and extinguished in a cloud of smoke and glitter when her heart stops. "

-

in other words, when a girl sees a musical for the first time, and feels enchanted all the way to her fingertips, and makes it her high school mission to pass this enthusiasm, this exhilarating feeling, to a certain hollis frengreen.

extended:

Ruby is a girl. A girl who, at the ages of five and six, watched fifteen Shakespeare film adaptations(amidst the Barney episodes), and fell in love. Partnered with Hollis Frengreen for a history project("FRENGREEN is such a romantic, mysterious, woody name!"), she decides to make it her high-school mission to a) ace this history project b) by creating a timeline of all things Shakespearian, c) convert Hollis into a lover of Musicals, by thee.

Hollis, a boy who is prone to hormonal attacks and girls who are in love with things, seems to be growing fond of Ruby and her ruby-ness.
