Who: All the cute little heroes
When: Day 35, evening
Where: Back To Your Regularly Scheduled Great Outdoors, Just outside the train

[ The beach fades away all at once, taking the cheery sunshine with it as evening hits all at once-- it melts away in a shower of sparkles as the familiar setting re-emerges. There are new stars in the sky above in clover pink, senna red, jasmine blue, and licorice violet.

Just before the beach disappears entirely, the bubbly voice speaks once more: ]

Wasn't that so much fun! You all rrrrrreally got to know each other, didn't you? Keep up the good work~!

[ If you had any alcohol in hand you still have it, otherwise everything from the trial is gone. ]

[Nodding.] I'll have to have some next time then.

[Gonna try petting her.]

[Lori opens her beak, cocking her head suspiciously, what is this interupption to PREENING??]

Lori, be nice, baby.

[but allows pettings]

[schrodingerscockroach]

It's all right if she bites. Biting is just a sign of not wanting something. Pettings are good things, not things to be tolerated.

[You're gonna get yourself bit, Wash.]

[....but to be fair, that has happened plenty.]

[But will pet if allowed.]

[bowtiedbones]

[she does allow it, settling in to let him do the preening instead]

No, it's not all right. She knows better and she could do serious damage to someone. She has other ways to communicate.

[schrodingerscockroach]

She does? More than body language?

[Will definitely help with that preening. Light scritches and all.]

[bowtiedbones]

Mostly body language. But also body language that isn't biting.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[Nods.]

To be fair, people can be pretty blind to body language.

[bowtiedbones]

How many people do you know that bite someone when they have a complaint?

[schrodingerscockroach]

....I think it says something when I don't immediately say no one.

I can't remember anyone, but.

[bowtiedbones]

That is maybe a little concerning.

[schrodingerscockroach]

I think it speaks to the maturity levels of people I associate with.

Or maybe a bunch of toddlers.

[STRAIGHT-FACED]

Clovers bite, got it.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[He snorts and laugh.] Wouldn't put it past Midnight or Noon.
