[a heart.]

There's a moment of nothing but light and sensation. Someone's looking you over and the scrutiny prickles and burns – it's nearly a physical pain, like fine little hooks digging past your skin, into the very meat of you. I know who you are, it says, and I know what you are, and that you don't have any business here --

“But you do,” says Mithos behind you. He's a tired, steady voice in your ear, a light hand on your shoulder. “I don't know what Dream's thinking, but everyone is welcome here in my heart; just keep in mind it's a real mess right now.”

Your vision clears.

((assume your characters wandered in here through a dream. also join #ihateyouihateyouiwanttocuddle on irc if you can!))

"I'm tired . . . the heart's really heavy right now. Frogs aren't helping."

Frogs... yeah, I don't think frogs would be very good at holding heavy things.

[:|a]

Maybe you could get something less squishy. Like... a crocodile.

"Um . . . that's bigger than a turtle . . . I'm working on turtles now! But I think if I have enough turtles I can make a crocodile."

Oh.

Do you need any help making a turtle? I mostly know about cats, but turtles are pretty cute too.

He beams up at you.

"You're helping with a turtle right now."

Really?

"Really. I'm happy that you're here. We're making a happy memory."

[o-oh]

Well, I'm happy that you're happy.

[tinyhugs '^']

Yes good he's hugging you back now.

[hug hug cuddleeee]

"I'm happy that you're happy that I'm happy!"

[c-cracking up]

Well, I'm happy that you're happy that I'm happy that you're happy.

"But I'm happy that you're happy that you're happy that I'm happy that you're happy --

Um, I think I messed up."

[rufflessss]

I think the message is pretty clear, though.

>//////<

"Okay..."

[cuuuute]

Are you going to be okay in here? I should probably keep going if there's more stuff messed up...

"Yeah! I have to stay up now to do my part and help, but I'll rest again when it's quieter!"

. . . a big turtle has appeared by the two of you.

All right. I'll try to help some more as well.

[... turtle

pets it]

The turtle also loves petting.

[gosh]

This is a good turtle.

"I couldn't have made it as good without you..."

[pets ittt]

I'm glad I could help.

So he'll keep you company for a while...?

"Yeah!"

All right. I'll see if I can visit again after... I should probably get going to other parts, for now.

"You should visit the others . . . they'd want to see you too."
