Nouns do not hinder Eefa's attempt to get out from under this arm.

She escapes and Pelape's nouns become more distressed. "Carousel??"

Do they stay more distressed?

Yeah. "Yellow. Eight. Treebranch!"

Eefa moves back under the arm.

"Staple."

Eefa can fall asleep like this, it just takes her a bit longer.

Pelape wakes up in the morning at a normal time. Awwwww snuggles <3

Eefa wakes up soon after Pelape.

"Good morning!"

Eefa nods.

"....I'm springing. If that wasn't obvious."

Nod nod.

"You said you would."

"Yeah. Any thoughts about a good place to hang out when I need privacy? I don't need it right now, but I will, soon."

"Near Saffron and other people?"

"Sounds good."

"Now?"

"It can be pretty much whenever works best for you unless I'm making plans with another grownup, which I don't plan to do today."

Now works in that case.

Pelape comes and gets her a bit later and they can go about their day mostly as normal with a little more fussing over Eefa's hair. What if it was in cute little braids?

Eefa will not complain if that's what Pelape wants to do.

"Ohhhhh you look so cute with pigtails, I wish I had something to tie them off with."

Eefa looks at Pelape with mild confusion.

"You're adorable! I can redo them in front of the mirror next time we're in the bathroom."

"Okay."
