Question

what might have been Enn's first indication that something was amiss with the girls ath the party? Did he seem to recognize the strangeness of their dislogue?

Answer 1

Answer:

Enn's first inclination that something was amiss with the girls at the party would have been the bizareness of the name of the first girl Wain's Wain, the second girl with a gape-tooth that claims she has been to the Sun and the third girl Triolet who puts him in a trance after she whispers a "poem" into his ears.

Explanation:

In the short story "How to Talk to Girls at Parties" by Neil Gaiman, a shy boy Enn goes to a party with his extrovert friend Vic.

When they arrive at the party, Vic meets a girl named Stella and starts flirting with her and encourages Enn to flirt with any girl of his choice.

Enn begins talking to a girl named Wain's Wain who somehow sees herself as a "second" because of a deformity on her finger, she goes on to tell him a very unusual story about being in Rio and says she is not "permitted" to participate in much and she is gone when Enn leaves to get a glass of water.

He meets a second girl with gape-tooth that claims she is a tourist who has been to the Sun. Vic interrupts them and says they are at the wrong party because a lot of weird things were happening and the girls might be aliens.
