[INTRO] they probably hate having to get used to a new place

[mercybutton]

Nooooo.

[aaaaaa. uuuuugh. What bothers them most right now isn't that they're suddenly someplace they don't know and thus are not at home, it's that they're suddenly someplace they don't know and thus is going to bump into literally Every Single Obstruction that exists here. Honestly, they'd be more concerned about being displaced from their family if they weren't annoyed about the prospect of having to get used to a possibly enormous place. Nobody better move the furniture around.

After a solid minute of laying on the ground they sit up. Feels like grass, sounds like water is rushing nearby. A park? Frisk stands up and starts shuffling around, trying to get used to their surroundings, finding one of the paths winding through the gardens. Then they start walking, gaining more confidence, and then-



trip right into a fountain. Curse their recklessness.]

They laugh a little. "I've been in a castle before, but I dunno if it was bigger than this one. None of the rooms shifted, either."

They'll just go walking down the hallway, not too quick, trying not to jostle Fidget too much.

[prospectornimbat]

"Hey, we got curtains coming up on the right, if you want a blanket."

[mercybutton]

They stop in place, but not abruptly. "Not looking for a blanket so much as something to dry off on, but curtains could work. Are they dusty?]

[prospectornimbat]

"They don't look that bad."

[mercybutton]

"Kay, good. You can hop off for a while if you like, I wanna dry my hair."

They walk over to the curtains and do just that. Not much else to say, on the matter.

[prospectornimbat]

Fidget takes to the air, hovering reasonably close. "So that's what you call it? Not fur?"

[mercybutton]

"I guess it can go either way... but usually if it's really long, like a lion's mane, we call it hair, not fur.

[prospectornimbat]

"Uh. Sorry, what's a lion?"

[mercybutton]

"… oh. Uh. Big furry feline predator that lives in the savannah, weighs a lot probably all from muscle and bone mass, males look like they've got a big ring of hair around the neck right behind the head. Females don't have that."

[prospectornimbat]

"Right, right." A small pause. "I knew that."

[mercybutton]

"I know you did."

They finish toweling off their hair. It's as dry as they can get it, but still wet. "Alright, I think I'm done."

[prospectornimbat]

"Okay, what's next on the list?"

[mercybutton]

"Uhh… does this place have clothes I can borrow? I don't wanna walk around in a wet sweater."

[prospectornimbat]

"You're going to have to for a little while. Let's get looking."

[mercybutton]

"That's fine." They keep walking, hand dragging down the nearest wall to keep themself walking straight.
