the house of the lost on the cape taken from the 2021 film.
don’t force yourself to speak. just rest, and you’ll recover before you know it.
you’re just about soaked to the bone.
sorry, kiddo. it’s too dangerous.
don’t let your guard down just because the food was good.
poor thing’s been through terrible trauma.
if things go south, we can run.
oh, looks like you took a tumble.
there, there. you all right, darling?
you slept for quite a while. i was afraid your eyelids would stick together.
it’s time you learn some responsibility.
you’ve had to go through so much at such a young age, but you’ve never once given up. i’m very proud of you.
what’s your name, hun?
now let’s get you dried off before you catch a cold.
it just means don’t worry, dear.
sorry, but i don’t take orders from children.
there’s gotta be somewhere you call home.
why don’t you put your things away and hop in the bath before bed?
if you care for it and speak well of it, it will grow wonderfully, just like a person.
you gave me a fright, my child.
but remember this. it’s not your fault, love.
so if you don’t mind it being ancient, it’s yours.
just feels like home, you know?
have a good day, love.
you don’t need to be scared of the house, i promise. it only wants to help take care of you.
no one’s ever spent this kind of money on me before.
this tea is made from dandelion root. it’s good for you.
you said we were a family, didn’t you? you told me we’d stay together.
i promise there are no wolves around here.
use this knife to blind the beast.
i’m sorry to hear that, but don’t worry too much. if you just take it easy, it’ll be back in no time.
and then this sweet thing showed up. he’s soft and friendly, so i thought you’d get along.
wow, sounds like you’ve been through a lot lately.
well, don’t overexert yourself.
makes sense. i know how you feel.
this knife won’t work. ugh.
darling, let’s get going already.
i had to come. what if i didn’t and something bad happened to you?
you can leave all that to me.
stay away. you’re nothing but a parasite.
you don’t have to get so mad at me.
i know it’s around here somewhere.
and i keep wondering, why does this always happen to me?
and we’ll be here a while, so you’ll get to explore.
i’ve been worried sick.
you don’t have to answer now. let yourself get lost in thought for a while.
it’s pretty nice to have a safe place we can actually call home, isn’t it?
so the time has finally come for me to use this.
the flowers bloom even with no one to tend to them.
and i’m going to stay here, because this is my home now.
we’ll need to stock up on more food than usual.
what do you want to do? with your future.
you know you can always talk to me if something’s bothering you.
but after traveling here and there for so many years, it’s nice to settle down.
oh, my gosh. listen to you.
it’s a reminder that good fortune doesn’t have to be excessive, and we can find small moments of happiness every day.
maybe i’ll head into town today.
some of the packaging is a little damaged, but the food inside is perfectly fine.
you don’t have anywhere to go either, do you?
if we’re going to be living together as a family, i felt like it would be wrong of me not to introduce you.
i think even if i do leave here, i’ll always come back.
