ORP: Sorry it’s been so long, the date was supposed to last like 2 hours and I don’t even know how much time I spent I just know I came back home and it was dark
“I was frozen by …” And then I shut up. Why should I tell him how people froze me and why did I say so much about myself? Did I not find enough ways to talk about myself in my life it’s all coming out now? No, I can’t let it all come out now, I don’t want this human to know about me because suspiciously he asks me to tell him all about myself but hasn’t said a word about him. So I shut up and asked him how he brushed his teeth instead. He answered “With a brush.” I rolled my eyes “Well yes, genius that’s how you’re supposed to brush them, I mean what kind of products do you make to clean your teeth with?” I mumbled a bit at the end when the man pushed some muck into my teeth. It smelled like a mint but I’ve never actually tasted one before so that was quite surprising. “For god’s sake, are you trying to prepare me for my burial or what? I don’t stink you just washed me!”
My mouth opened and my eyes widened as she made an impression “You know the book?” I smiled knowing how good the books is. Tolkien made whole languages in his books and the backstories are all so good! The story itself is magnificent and the history of the world he created is magnificent. “That is among my favorite books. Probably my favorite book.” I smiled. This was a very happy surprise. I knew she read but didn’t realize somebody who likes to read probably knows this great book.
“Are you new in here” I asked. If he was new we could figure out what it’s like in here together, because doing it on your own is much harder and you have to ask older people who already know most of it and you feel like you’re bothering them, but if you do it with somebody else you don’t feel so alone in this. However if he was to say no, he’d be the one to ask if I had any questions.
@ethereal - sorry it’s so short
