"Waaaiiiiiiiiit. Please? Por favor?"

Salma frowns! She sighs, and picks up the mop. Someone has to finish this hallway.

At por favor... a boggan peeks out.

at the edge of the hallway

In spanish - "Why did you run away?"

In spanish _Shy shrug of shoulders

"Please don't be scared of us? We don't know you yet."

The girl's twin braids drop. Soemthing familiar about her, then "I cannot help it.. i have the anxiety social"

"Though Aunti Marie says I'm just shy and I Do not have it..." A blush

"Oh, Maris is your auntie! You look like her."

"I am Ellie, and we could be friends, please?"

"Oh, you wouldn't want me , I would be a terrible friend.." the girl assures you, "I am a gossip ,and then I run"

"_Well, I don't want you to be scared or unhappy. But I don't think you would be a bad friend. Adler is shy, too."

"He's a sluagh, it's okay for them to be shy" She says switching to English with a swallow

"It is okay for anybody to be shy."

"Oh you do not know, you're not a boggan. I'm supposed to gossip and give my opinions and be busy even while I talk ...to crowds I ..oh" Sheepish then "I did not even give you my name? See how poor my manners are?" She looks ready to withdraw again

"I'm Ellie" She offers again.

"Mar.. mar.. mar..." SHe starts to say...

"That's a lot of mars" Ahpuch mutters

"marlena!" The girl blurts

"Hello, Marlena. Nice to meet you." Ellie smiles, with all the glow and grace of her kith.

"you're very pretty... and it was nice to meet you but i must go before I say things that are stupid" And she flees

A sigh.

Ariel sighs "I do not understand shy people"

"Well, we will just have to be quiet and safe so she comes out again, later."

"Perhaps if we laid cookies? " Onyx, a clever ailil says "We ask her aunt what she likes best"

And thus, they plot, on how to catch a shy boggan and turn her into a friend
