[Considering the whole non-permanence of death thing, not to mention the closets, George isn't too worried about her track record with pets. And after all, she kept her frog for a long time! Like, two years!

It might be that overconfidence that made fate decide to fuck with her, though.]

Hey. Uh, if anybody finds a yellowish-orangeish frog about [She gestures.] this big? That's, uh, mine. So if you can just put him in a box or something, I'll come get him.

Yeah. It's kind of...weird. But I guess pets keep people company so it's not a bad thing, exactly.

I wonder where th-they come from...

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

Dunno.

[She squints at the guy, not sure what to make of him. Why can't she see his face?]

You okay?

[born-from-mist.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I-I'm okay. Uhm... why?

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

You sound kinda nervous. I don't bite.

[born-from-mist.livejournal.com]

I do? Oh... I-I guess Wonderland is still a little n-new for me...

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

Well, don't worry. You can die five times.

[There's a few moments of silence at that.]

... ...Wh-what?

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

I dunno. Just what I've heard.

[It doesn't apply to her. So whatever.]

[born-from-mist.livejournal.com]

... ... H-How... How can someone...

[What.]

[He's just going to... pull his hat over his eyes and fidget with the brim of it, thinking.]

You okay?

[born-from-mist.livejournal.com]

...D-Do people really..uhm... d...d-die a lot here..? It doesn't seem...

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

Not really. But hey, just in case. You've got five times.

[born-from-mist.livejournal.com]

R-right... Just in..uhm... c-case.

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

Yup. [Snort.]
