I wish we had them sooner!

[holyspirits]

When the islands were picked I don't think a real order was thought in mind. They just kinda created their own route along the way. But the good thing is now you can visit whenever you want.

[cupidsammo]

And spend all day there, haha... Do you prefer cats or dogs?

[holyspirits]

Dogs, I guess. I've never given much thought to either. We didn't have pets when I was growing up, but I kinda thought maybe I would've liked a dog as a kid.

[ and yet they're currently fostering a lion cub? sure. ]

[cupidsammo]

[ YOU STILL HAVE THAT?! ]

Hmm... Yeah, I can see it! Maybe having a dog would get you out more, too.

[holyspirits]

[ yeah they do not trust you guys not to accidentally hurt it by going into the arena again. ]

Funny. I get out plenty, I think.

[cupidsammo]

Do you? I had gotten the impression you spend most of your time in here...

[holyspirits]

I usually go out late at night when most of you are asleep. Otherwise, yeah. I stick around here.

[cupidsammo]

Huh...

... Are you getting enough sleep, yourself?

[holyspirits]

[ this is a good question. ]

Enough, I guess. [ enough for constant nightmares, yeah. ] I'm managing.

[cupidsammo]

[ HELLO ]

... Um..

[ are we just gonna leave that, or, ]

[holyspirits]

[ we can and should leave that, judging by the way they pause. ]

That... isn't really new. Don't worry about it.

[cupidsammo]

... Right, sorry. I'll forget about it.

[ OR WILL SHE. ]

Um—I'm glad you get to see what the other stops are like, at least. Maybe you don't a dog to get out after all!

[holyspirits]

[ SHE SHOULD. there's a little nod... ]

Yeah. I try to stop by each one a couple of times a week at this rate, but maybe a dog would make the trips a little more enjoyable. At least to take on the walks through the Twin Peaks woods.

[cupidsammo]

The gardens and meadows around Oz are really lovely to walk through, too. I still find myself going out there sometimes, so I bet having a dog to walk would make it more fun.

[holyspirits]

I haven't been over there as much. Probably because the flowers keep getting pissed off I walk through them and accidentally step on some of them. Twin Peaks just feels the most like home. Maybe that's why I gravitated to it so much.

[cupidsammo]

Does it? Is it something that reminds you of somewhere else?

[holyspirits]

Yeah. It's the most familiar to me out of everywhere else.

[cupidsammo]

You must come from somewhere with a lot of forests, then.

[holyspirits]

Yeah, you could say that. I just started really appreciating the outdoors though.

[cupidsammo]

Honestly... I feel like I should too. At least visit parks some more!

[holyspirits]

Parks count. There was one where I was from that, like, existed... but it wasn't all that great. Definitely not a place you wanted to be at night, but during the day I guess it was fine. This? Definitely nicer.

[cupidsammo]

[ That sounds like it barely counts... ]

The parks back home are definitely nicer than that, too... But compared to what a big city has to offer, the nature here has it beat.

[holyspirits]

[ it did barely count. ]

I've never lived in a big city, but you're from Tokyo. So I can kinda imagine the forests here are really wild in comparison. [ ... ] I don't mind getting lost out there sometimes. Makes it a little easier to think.

[cupidsammo]

[ she nods ]

It does. I'm not used to finding spots that are empty of people, but I never realized how nice it can be to sit somewhere so... peaceful, for a while.
