The Asylum

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

"Oh! First, Hoopy, get some black pepper, or if that doesn't work, take a feather and-"


Oh gods..... Tempest, leave HoopyFrood alone, will you?

[HoopyFrood]

It's all right, it's fading a little now. Stupid nose and not sneezing when I want to.

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

*Tempest, not listening, sneaks up on Hoopy and starts tickling her nose with a feather*



Tempest, that is ENOUGH! That is it! I am sending you to Rosie for dragon training!

[HoopyFrood]

*Knocks away the feather* It's all right, calm down, hardly the most terrible thing to occur.

Maybe you two should spend more time together. I've watched enough Super Nanny now to know that things usually misbehave because they're seeking attention and care.

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

He's not a child and we're together constantly. I think he needs time away from me for a while. I know I need it from him.


Still, I tend to be a bad influence.....I'm ashamed to admit.....

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Proportionately, he's older than you are, H-girl.....although as I said, he never did have much experience in the human world before coming here to Chrons, and as such, has never really learned how to behave here.....

[HoopyFrood]

Just because someone is chronologically older doesn't always mean anything.

But there you go. Never mind! *Grabs some tea and flumps onto the sofa*

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Yes, he's childlike in behavior.

"Hey!"


Um, I think you grabbed the wrong cup, Hoopy, that one has some week-old coffee in it.....

[HoopyFrood]

*Sniffs* Ergh. Although the goblins only cleaned the other day, so I'm surprised. *Gets up and washes out the cup, and makes fresh tea*

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

That coffee was left out for next time that witch-girl came around. I heard they don't like the stuff and the older it is, the less they like it.....

[The Ace]

Actually, Karn, Hoopy may have a point. Tempest's friendly enough but he doesn't have the innate grasp of the rules that most of us have.

Remember when he thought Tangle'd like some fish ? I don't blame him for not wanting to be handled either, it's easy to imagine how you'd feel if someone twenty times your size picked you up without warning.

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Tempest is as big as I am. It's Juken that's the small guy.


And yes, Tempest DOES need to learn some.....self-restraint.

[HoopyFrood]

*Runs in, slides under a table, leaps over the sofa and then curses mightily*

What the [censored] have I just landed on? Owowow.

*Rubs her back as she picks up a book* Hello. I'm pretty sure I've been back here a few times and not seen you lying around. *Looks at the ribbon-bound tome* Well, you and I just keep finding each other. You can live here for a while. *Stores it in her cloak*

[The Ace]

Freda, back to her familiar black-and white and smelling much better, scuttles in and hugs Hoopy.
