Orb Post | 14th of Rebirth's Decline

[halfwitch]

This place uses a weird system for the calendar. I wonder what month it's supposed to be by the system back home? I'd like to figure that out. You know, for the important dates.

Fairy Penguins, Blue Penguins? They're little and dark blue, kind of purplish, and they live in New Zealand and Australia. My best friend took me to see them to celebrate finishing our graduate work. I wanted to be a marine biologist back home.

[halfwitch]

But I've never heard of them. And I lived there.

[Gretel there are lot of things you've never heard of.]

[tenuefarfalla]

They're there, I promise. I used to be a marine biologist. Here, hang on.

[She stops paying attention to the orb for a bit and stares at something in her lap. After a couple of minutes, she comes up with a remarkably good drawing of a little penguin, complete with a splash of indigo watercolour for accuracy.]

They look like this.

[Gretel looks a little awe struck]

It's cute. Are they really that blue?

[tenuefarfalla]

They really are.

[Cho is smiling when she says it. She thinks that maybe she likes Gretel.]

A drawing can't do them justice, but if you ever want to see more, just come find me. I draw. It helps me think.

[And right now she's thinking about how to figure out what month it is here in La La Land.]
