"But what if I'm not evil OR nice?"

"Then.. uhm" She ponders "Well, I have an EIluned friend so I KIND of know how that is" She says after thinking about it "I'll probably protect you anyway, but, I will use judgey eyes while i do it' A nod

"I don't have any loon friends, but there are ducks and gooses on the lake sometimes, and I DO have a Layne friend?"

"Well, I'm glad you have friends" She nods and kind of looks over the boy from the side , "You have a tail"

"Wait, what?!"

He spins, trying to see it

"Aaaaah! BUTT SNAKE!"

"I don't think you want me to cut it off, you mikght miss it" The troll warns

Dag covers her smile with her hand.

Happy still smiles but he always does

The tail seems to be wagging with excitment of it's own accord

"You know, a peanut butter cookie might help tame the butt snake" Eir Frey says

His tail wags FASTER!

"Do those even EXIST?"

"Here, I'll save you" Ashblythe grabs a cookie and says 'Say aaaww"

"Pawwwwwww."

And she puts the cookie in the mouth "Chew"

Chew chew chew! He plops onto his rump in doing so, and the tail stops! Because he's sitting on it.

"No fair, you're smart AND strong. Most people only get one."

A purple blush "Not That smart, but thank you. Well, I guess I can be nice while I watch you to learn your shadowpaw secrets"

"Wouldn't it be more fish... fishing... efishing... wouldn't it be faster just to ask?"

"I'm not sure I know enough pooka ease to make talking fast" she admits "it's a tricky language"

"Well, are you in a hurry?"

"Guess not" She says and yawns then covers ehr mouth

Gerd looks at the others 'I bet Hearth kerri has those spots picked out by now. Dagmar, you want to get your squire some place comfy?"

"Lumber slumber party?"

"I think a slumber party might be a good idea...."

"Connor, will you help Ashblythe? I'll get Happy and Eir Freya to their rooms."

"Thank you, Connor" the girl says

"Lead on, young lady" The old woman says

Gerd cleans up while Dagmar tends to the old woman and happy
