[ Oh, look! It’s the blue-haired girl again. She’s outside her castle again, this time in the bigger backyard, and somewhere behind her is her sister, Snow. It’s not quite obvious just yet, but Snow is talking to someone and the conversation sounds delightful. Grinning at her sister for a moment, Evie turns to look at the FluxPhone. ]

So, not only did I get my bike, but we have a new housemate.

[ And Evie sounds fairly excited. She needed a few days to adapt to the idea, sure. But she got there quick. Snow is happy, so Evie’s happy. Turning to look at her sister, she speaks to snow. ]

Would you like to introduce your friend, Snow?

Oh! Why hello there! It's so nice to see you! I would like to introduce my new friend. Come here, dear.

[A black wolf comes into view. Yes, a wolf, not a dog.]

Everyone, this is Alarick! Isn't he adorable!

[The wolf, for his part, looks bashful. Yes, the wolf looks bashful.]

Alarick is such a sweet boy, it was such a wonderful surprise for him to just pop out of the box.

[Evie turns to grin at the FluxPhone’s camera again as Alarick comes trotting over, nudging the palm of her free hand to get her attention. ]

Yes, you’ll eat soon. Just wait.

[ She doesn’t speak to the animals like Snow does, but she recognizes a hungry animal when she sees one. ]

He was most certainly a shock.

[ A good one, if the soft smile on her face is any manner of tell. ]

I think this might be Snow’s surprise, as mine is in the driveway of my castle. What did everyone else get when we changed over to Wechester City?

[ A huff from the adorable wolf and Evie sighs, raising one eyebrow as if to say ‘my fairy godmother, can you believe this?’ before she turns her feed off, the last shot the phone showing of Alarick trotting along beside Evie as she heads inside. ]


[ ooc: evie is blue. snow is red. ]

I never really had parents either. My servants were the ones who really raised me. But I am not sure if I would make a good father even if I did have a child.

[What if any child of his turned out just as spoiled and unkind as he himself had been when he was young?]

[onebadapple]

Oh, that was very nice of them. But you know, I think you would make a very good father. You know exactly what not to do! And that's just as important as knowing what to do!

[learningtolove]

Is it? [But the more he thinks about it, the more that it seemed to make sense. Snow was just full of good little bits of wisdom it seemed.] I never really thought of it that way.

[onebadapple]

Sometimes you just need help in seeing a new perspective!

[learningtolove]

You are very good at that.

I have had some practice with finding the positive side in very difficult situations. [Like being raised as a servant in your own castle and anyone trying to help you being thrown in the dungeon. Stuff like that.]
