"One of you girls is getting AWFUL brave" Lupe says "Don't make me come up there" Of course they're on the first floor

"Yeah, well. Come back in."

She does... and eyes them both then eyes the juice "That for me to apologize for the giggles?" Exagerated eyebrow

"Yeah. Drink up."

She does drink and lights up immediately, and looks up, and UP.. and UP "Geez how do you get any oxygen up there?"

May just beams "I missed you guys"

"I get it first. Tree height."

"Fah, at least they produce oxygen and become useful" Lupe nudges her with an elbow and smiles "So what's the plan?"

May says "Sam..err Dagmar, says we should do something special"

"With you beng enchanted and all..."

"But we should check in with Layne and Tove and all that..."

"Layne?" Lupe says "That new family?"

"Yeah. And she's a fledge... uh, new us."

"You guys have centaurs?" May beams

"No they don't have.. wait..." Lupe turns "DO you guys have Centaurs?"

"They're new."

"Okay, that's cool but how do the legs.. you know what, nevermind, spirits have their own rules" Lupe says

May huffs "Lupe, you don't try to find the RULES of fairy magic, you just. .believe" then she smiles.

Two Nevers pop into existance nearby. May's a dreamer plus

"Um. I try not to think too hard about that part, yeah."

"So, well. Since May was enchanted, seemed only right to get you enchanted. Maybe.. I dunno... I'm sure Connor would like to see you, since he normally can't."

Lupe says "Good by me" A look to May

"Always happy to meet a friend of yours" May says nodding

"Oh, and..." She crosses to open the kitchen window. "Snow, there's plums!"

"Connor is my squire. He's a good kid."

"PLUMS!" A voice is heard and into the window comes a snow white monkey with shining green eyes "PLUMS, Friend Dagmar? Oh Snow loves plums, and plums love Snow! THey fit in your hand like little marbles of joy and then you eat them!"

"A talking monkey!" May claps her hands

"A gluttony spirit" Lupe observes

"Snow has simple needs." Shrug, fond smile. "And yeah, plums. May, get them from the hanging basket?"

"Sure" May grins and then offers them to Snow "Hi. I'm May."

"And now, trust me, you have made a friend forever."

Snow plucks them with almost master typist like precision from the tall girl's hand "Oh hello May, I like your name. IT makes me think of the fine fruits that come out in the month of May!" As she plucks, during pauses, Snow pops the plums into her mouth, then keeps talking "I am Snow! And yes, I am your friend! You share plums! Friend should share! Particualrly things they love and I LOOOOVE plums. Do you like plums too?"

"I prefer grapes" She admits "But Plums are nice"

"Oh Snow loves them all" Snow says making MM sounds "Plums, Grapes, strawberries, Apples, banananas and water melons? But those are SOOOO heavye it is hard to carry them to the safety of my stomach"

May laughs then looks at Dagmar 'She's great!"

"She is. She lives in that 'birdhouse' by the tree." May has seen the little pagoda on a pole.

May nods as if that makes sense

Lupe mutters "It's like a theurge bargaining with a gluttony spirit.. a chatty gluttony spirit" but she looks amusedly resigned

Snow nods "Oh yes... it was very nice of my friends to put it up" And done with the plums, Snow leaps to Dagmar's shoulder and plants a BIG Monkey kiss on the side of the troll's face

"Well, we like having you around, Snow. Thank you for meeting my friends."

"I love her" May grins

"I think she might get annoying after a time" Lupe says

Snow fusses "Annoying? You sound like the Rover... oh he has the attitude of a grape that was raisened and did not go sweet. " The monkey dream looks put upon "The bottle said PEACH schnops... I just thought he should share!"

"Snow is who she is. But Snow... didn't the schnapps make your tummy hurt? Better to take good fruit from friends who care for you."

"YES, you are right, friend Dagmar, Snow got VERY sick .. " Confidentially "it was not really peach juice at all"

May goes "awwww"

Lupe rolls her eyes. Clearly her friends are too soft hearted

"We don't want you to get sick or hurt, Snow. That's all."

"So no more schnapps."

"Oh! We could go see Spark. He keeps trying to fly!"
