Ah... my condolences.

[ for your now-nerfed super-powered bat?? yeah. ]

Still, it must be a relief to have something familiar to carry with you.

[trashprince]

[ tags instantly to correct myself because while 'i've being throttled' is hilarious that is not proper verbiage, sae. fuck. anyway. it's locked in. this is my cross to bear. ahem. ]

You didn't receive anything? I thought everyone had clothes and some item or--did you get a pet?

[ glancing around for shadow cat! ]

[sootprints]

[ i wish we had shadow cats! sadly we cannot because of (redacted). ]

Ah, no... I received this.

[ fishing around in some fold of her dress, idk if it has pockets, somehow she carries things, and producing a little plush doll! It looks like a faceless girl in a pink dress and bonnet. ]

[trashprince]

[ also faceless. not scary at all. no. totally fine. caelus takes it in, mindful he knows kate was worried about being seen at first. ]

Did someone make this for you? Sentimental value has its own worth.

[sootprints]

Yes. Someone very important to me.

[trashprince]

[ awwww. that's good. ]

She's just as cute as her keeper.

[ hehe. ]

Have you explored around?

[sootprints]

[ cute?? stares at him. probably. still unclear exactly where she's looking or what kind of face she's making. ]

A little, yes. Every place seems strangely sinister...

... but I was pleased to find that there's a working bath in the old house.

[trashprince]

There is? Nice.

[ caelus will need to make use of that. ]

Thanks for the intel, Miss Kate. Anything else you noticed?

[sootprints]

[ well... ]

There are fish in the stream, if you know how to catch them.

[trashprince]

[ she mentions fish and caelus looks at his bat, definitely piecing together whether he can bludgeon a fish to death. ]

We wouldn't have any spices to season them with...

[sootprints]

We'll simply have to deal with the blandness.

[ but she does sound disappointed about that. ]

[trashprince]

Did anyone have 'foraging' on their skills list? Maybe there's swamp algae that's surprisingly delicious if we knew how to harvest it.

[ wishful, humorous thinking. he deduces miss kate would not appreciate hair ruffles so he sticks to verbal musing ]

[sootprints]

No... not that I saw. I wouldn't recommend the trial-and-error approach, either.

[trashprince]

That's true of leaving, at least. I tried exiting through the swamp and it's the same as through the fog.

[ more leechies to show for it, too ]

We're stuck bad.

[sootprints]

I was afraid of that...

[ man. ]
