…hey wylie

could i visit right now?

@nyx-the-pipps

Of course Dearie! Do you remember where I live? It can be a bit out of the way.

[dusting-the-grapevine]

Hello Wylie, and.. Pomelo? Cossy told me to come check on you earlier, do you need anything?

@dice-devourer-devourer

Ah, Wylie is just an online name… this sort of matter might be better to deal with in person, Sweetbeast…

* * If Cossy trusts you though…

For a summary though, Pomelo is an entity that has been following me on and off. Due to recent events, it has been discovered that it is a child, Cossy believes you can deal with this well?

[dusting-the-grapevine]

hey wylie. i know it’s been a little while, just wanted to check up on you.

@nyx-the-pipps

Ah! It’s always nice to see a familiar face.

It’s been a bit quiet lately, not sure if its because… ah nevermind.

How have you been doing? Your little one doing alright?

[dusting-the-grapevine]

i-i have more food. just n-not in my fridge yea

you don’t need to come to me to give me food

@nyx-the-pipps

I didn’t see any cupboards or pantries with food in them last time I visited. So unless you got some since then, you don’t have any Honeybun.

Besides, I already sent Captulo a message for any recommendations, you don’t want me to waste paws time, do you?

[A bunch of presents appear in Wylie’s place of residence

Addressed to Wylie, it seems there’s 3 plush items.

Addressed to Pomelo, is kind of a lot. Theres a fruit basket. 8 small plush things. A few rectangular items. And a larger item.

Everything is wrapped in festive Christmas paper.

They all say they’re from ★

A note reads:

Merry Christmas, Wylie and pomelo! I figured pomelo doesn’t have a lot, so I fear I might have gone a little overboard, haha! Hope you guys like your presents, I care about both of you dearly!

*Wylie immediately starts fussing over its own gifts, leaving Pomelo to process the gifts

[I]

[I]

[For me?]

*Pomelo immediately turns its attention towards the fruit basket and plush material, more familiar things for it

*It keeps its Storyteller plush under its arm as it attempts to open the gifts, narrating its process to the plush as it works

[dusting-the-grapevine]

Hey um, pomelo

How ya doin, kiddo?

@cossy-the-cosmic-pippins

[Fine, I've stayed here longer than normal]

[Gale is taking me to a studio potluck]

[I'll probably go light side after]

[I've had a lot of firsts recently]

[dusting-the-grapevine]

Hello, dear. Cossy asked me to check up on you and Pomelo. How are you two doing?

@dice-devourer-devourer

*It feels like you walked in on something.

Ah hello Sweetbeast haha I’ve been better…

[This is better…]

And don’t you deserve best

*You feel static leeching out In malcontent.

… Anyhoo… an anon by the name of Mint, have you heard of her before, I’m not her biggest fan haha but a lot of her points on why. Nyx might not be the best caregiver. applied to. me. and Pomelo’s other caregiver.

*The static burns further.

And uh I might. have a rocky relationship with the dear but. I can’t let this continue. I don’t think I should continue being. it’s caretaker. I’m sorry

*The static hits a crescendo.

[dusting-the-grapevine]

Hey dusty u seem to know a lot about a lot of things :)

DO U KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE SHADOW CRSYTALS ??

@cossy-the-cosmic-pippins

*You get the sensation that from beyond the screen Gale Wylie shifts uncomfortably

*It seems like it doesn’t want to talk about this

*Do you press on anyways

Yes [] * No[]
