Lean. Snuggle. Home they go and put their tiny little alien to bed.

She wakes up only momentarily when put down and quickly falls back asleep when tucked in.

Sleepy little alien.


In the morning she gets breakfast (pear slices, a sweet bread item, and a spoonful of beans) and reads more books!

Permalink

And when she'd like a break from that they can go over to her grandparents' house to learn more Oahkar and meet her twin uncles!

Permalink

"...you look the same," she tells twin uncles.

Permalink

"That is how twins work."

Permalink

"...new," she says.

Permalink

Twins look confused!

Permalink

"I didn't know that was how twins worked," she explains.

Permalink

"Oh. Twins don't happen much which is good because two families getting a baby is probably better than one but sometimes they happen."

Permalink

"Do you like it?"

Permalink

They beam at each other. "Yes."

"Definitely."

"It seems like it would be really lonely just being the only baby around."

Permalink

"I don't remember being a baby so I don't know if I was lonely."

Permalink

"That's weird."

Permalink

"I have amnesia! I don't remember anything before this week."

Permalink

"Weird! Weirder than twins I think."

Permalink

"Yeah, I guess."

Permalink

"You should practice Oahkar!"

Permalink

"I forget which one's Oahkar!"

Permalink

"I don't know enough of it to talk about the thing we were talking about!"

Permalink

Afen giggles. Other adults shake their heads despairingly.

Permalink

"D'you wanna have a twin?"

Permalink

"Not really, I don't know what I would do with one."

Permalink

"Play games and talk and tell stories and go places."
