Huh.

Most people don't pay enough attention to even think to do any of that with beings that don't see as, well, other people.

[onebadapple]

Oh, well, animals were my only friends growing up, so I told them everything and they told me the same!

[ezra_of_lothal]

[Ezra is suddenly realizing part of why people look at him oddly sometimes. Ok, he's known for a long, long time his wavelength is a little...different.

Snow is, just maybe, even further out there on some parts of a similar wavelength.]

I think maybe you're better at making friends than I am. I didn't realize animals made such good friends until a few years ago.

I just...didn't have any, for a long time.

[onebadapple]

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. Being all alone with no one at all can be terribly hard. Are you alright? If you are in need of a friend, I'm more than happy to be one!

[ezra_of_lothal]

Yeah, I'm doing much better, most days. Thanks. Although I'm always glad to make more friends, at this point in my life.

I'm sorry you can relate, like, at all. How about you? Doing ok?

[onebadapple]

Oh! I'm so glad! I'm very glad to be making friends, too! It's so much better than being all alone where no one acknowledges you exist.

And I'm doing very well! I have people who love me and friends both animal, mythical, and human!

[ezra_of_lothal]

[Ezra laughs softly, genuinely happy.]

I'm really really glad to hear that, Snow. Hey, next time you're baking some pies, and you want more company, give me a call and I'll come lend a hand, ok?

[onebadapple]

Oh! You know how to bake as well? Goodness, Ezra, you're so very skilled and talented! [She's 10000% sincere with that comment, not an ounce of derision or mocking in her tone.]

I'm always happy to have extra help in the kitchen, my animals help me all the time while I'm cooking for myself.

[ezra_of_lothal]

I bet I could learn a thing or two from you! [Or a lot.]

But I'm pretty good with ingredient prep and can follow instructions so hopefully as much help as you animal friends?

[onebadapple]

Well, if you would like to learn, you're welcome to come by! I offer lessons both in my home and at Makoto's bakery!

Oh, I'm sure you'll do a wonderful job, Ezra! Although I'll be curious to see your dough work, my birds are very skilled pie decorators! [She giggles.]
