You’re a cheerful one, aren’tcha? Doezzzn’t it get tiring being so cheery all the time? Kzrt!
“Heehee funny to have someone so energetic ask me about keeping my cheer levels up. I mean look at you, you buzz with energy that just makes me wanna smile and be peppy too!”
“I…actually have never really thought about that…”
“I guess…it can get a little tiring sometimes. But I used to be sad so often…that got tiring too…people are not exactly always kind to those who want to perform who don’t fit certain ideas of beauty or cuteness after all. But being sad was no fun, so I learned to laugh things off and try to make those who put me down smile and see that my dream could come true…that everyone is beautiful…”
“I guess I would rather put energy into being too happy than being too sad…?”
“Um…thank you for asking…and for listening. I’ve never had someone to talk to about this. Sorry if I rambled.”
“Now, now no more of that! You are very clever! Would you like to come see my shell and stone collection? Maybe we can find something neat you can tell me all about!”
