i heard there were talking animals on this network!

are you guys like people's spirit companions or something? do you have telepathic links to your bonded humans? what's it like having paws or hooves, can you type with those??

i've never seen a talking animal before so mainly i'm just curious!

umm i don't have footpaws, just regular human feet, so i guess technically no?

[the sentiment of the accusation is very true tho :( ]

[ text ]

[seabeast]

technically

anyhow
i type with me paws when lyalls computer is about and i tap at letters on a page when he isnt
both ways suit me fine

anything else

typin gets more than tirsome when ye have to stretch for half the keys

[pianistofraielin]

oh! they make phones with tiny keyboards that slide out, i bet that would be a lot easier for you to use if a regular keyboard is too big for you!

[ ... for someone so perky, he was being annoyingly helpful. ]

where can i get such a thing

[ text ]

[pianistofraielin]

hmm it should be pretty easy to order one off the internet. phones can get pretty expensive though, i don't know what your financial situation might be

here, this should help you find one that suits you!

[pianistofraielin]

[it takes him a minute to figure out what 'onest' is supposed to mean. talking animals, not the best spellers in the world!]

it's just rude to call someone something they don't want to be called, is all.

[he hadn't thought of it like that. it's an important thing to point out. they're in this together, risk one person and risk the group]

you're right. i'll have to be vigilant from now on!

thanks for pointing that out, stella.

[seabeast]

tis a load off my poor soul to know that pup

[ if only she could convey an utterly flat tone through text. PLEASE JUST PRETEND SHE'S ACTUALLY RELIEVED RUSSEL it's for your own good. ]

[pianistofraielin]

[luckily for the both of them he is just the kind of person to take that at face value and not question it.]

[which has left him with an incredibly inaccurate impression of stella. you're welcome.]
