[20:25:05] <Lecia> "Yeah. Life got a bit more--oh, right!" Serious little-girl mode. "Swanna, I...have a status report on one of the girls that went in the forest you were mentioning earlier. Madeline, it was. At least, I think they're both the same..."
[20:26:34] * LawrenceXavier waves on his way in, and hops down the last few feet.
[20:27:06] <Josh_Petersen> "Oh, is she one of the first batch of kids to try fixing all this?" Josh stops failing at hitting on Lecia for the moment - he probably shouldn't be trying, either, truth be told.
[20:27:07] <Botherer> Edword honks at Lecia. "Well, spit it out, already! You're distracting me from this delicious porridge!" Mother Swanna gives a disapproving frown at Edword.
[20:29:57] <Lecia> ...She glances upward to see her mans goofing off somewhat, and is then brought back to the situation by the other two. "Yeah, she is. Probably. But, while I was being...awake, she got into some...issues...she's...currently in the hospital, and she hasn't woken up. Her heart rate is normal, but...I have a weird feeling that those two things could be linked..."
[20:31:19] <Josh_Petersen> "...I can't say for sure, science wasn't my best subject. But I doubt that you're wrong about them being connected. Maybe we should round everyone up and head out looking for her?"
[20:31:31] * LawrenceXavier gathers himself from the dropping-in, catching the later bits of the conversation. "A coma?"
[20:32:56] <Botherer> Mother Swanna raises a hand to cover her mouth as she lets out a small gasp. "Oh my..." Concern's quite visible upon her face. "You believe your friend's subconscious might be trapped in the forest?"
[20:33:31] <Botherer> <Edword> "But Mother Swanna... That would imply she had a brain to hold a subconscious! Honk!"
[20:34:12] <Josh_Petersen> "...why would anyone not have a brain? I didn't do well in bio but I'm pretty sure you kind of need that."
[20:34:14] <Lecia> She is clearly not the most comfortable talking about a wounded friend, and if you couldn't tell from a tilde-type using all those ...'s, then it shows. "Yeah, that's it. ...If going to a place like that would cause one to enter a coma in the real world..." .hack, the game. "...That sounds right." Shudder. Edwark is promptly ignored. Botherer--ed. But ignored. Keeping that typo.
[20:36:05] * Falcon ([email protected]) has joined #Dreamscape
[20:36:15] <Falcon> wark
[20:37:25] <Botherer> Mother Swanna now glaaares at Edword. He slinks down a bit in his seat before it starts rumbling. "The inner reaches of the forest have never been the best place to be... But for something like that to happen..."
[20:38:15] <Botherer> Edword flails about in panic before Malto bursts out of the ground, fudge brownies and a geyser of liquid chocolate spraying out everywhere. Michael climbs out shortly after just in time to see Malto licking himself.
[20:38:24] * Falcon is now known as Michael
[20:38:49] * LawrenceXavier was about to speak before a burst of choclate EVERYWHERE, and he looks on over to Michael. "Did you go back there?"
[20:39:00] <Botherer> The both of them are covered from head to toe in chocolate.
[20:39:17] <Michael> "one thing to say about that chocolate. Hard to resist"
[20:39:50] <Lecia> And suddenly, CHOCOLATE. ...Go back? "Did you guys go to a place with a lot of chocolate~?"
