"I'm supposed to be there early, Gerd. She's.. she was my sister, right? but if I can't pick the right outfit, then it's like disrespectful, and Kelby's funeral will be ruined. So black, right? Only, Kelby didn't like black, she liked red and..." Kourtney seems to be having a nervous break down over what to wear for her sister's funeral

Gerd bites her bottom lip than says "Kelby knows what your favorite colors were, and she never was big on dresses and fussing. But if you want to show her.. how about something with your favorite color and hers all mixed?"

"I.. guess?" Kourtney is unsure

"Here, let me show you... we braid this in your braid..and .." Gerd goes to work "Now, if you want really cool hair, you should see what Dagmar did for Siv"

Kourtney smiles weakly, then looks to Gerd. "I feel bad all the mean things I said to her"

"you were sisters, you fought. I wish I had a sister to fight with, though..." Gerd says "Dagmar and SYlvi and Siv are kind of like sisters.. just not my age so.. blah"

"I know, right? Kelby got a bit weird once she got the adolescence" Kourtney says "Boys are for wishing about, not actual kissing too soon"

"I know, right? " Gerd says "You can't kiss a boy until you've had a unicorn ride. Or the Unicorn smells the cootie chimera and no unicorn for you. A girl has to get her unicorn first."

"Exactly" Kourtney says happy for the distraction, any distraction while she gets ready

So much talk is made of how today's wilders have it all backwards, and lose out on unicorns because of it. Childlings today will never grow to be so foolish
