Edema Rue she/her Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Just now, Exotic Almond said: "Tal? Oops sorry, you have keys right? That's what Sunny was trying to do with me at first but, then we came here instead and then I went outside. Oh! I need to tell you how outside was! It was great! It was warm and green and comfy! Thanks for telling me about outside!" "I'm glad," Tal said warmly. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a tiny key, just the right size for an otter. "Go up the green stairs, then the blue stairs. If you walk past the hall that smells like lavender, your room will be on the left. It has lots of windows to show you outside, and a wonderful balcony." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I'm trying. Unlike you. You left her again. But to some degree I guess you're right. It was apparently not what she needed. She won't talk.
