"...nest is good," she acknowledges.

"I'm really glad you like it!"

Happy little burble.

Since she has been convinced not to keep going the eggshell route, she floats over to the window to see if she can go harvest another crocus petal instead.

Deshi will open the window for her again, though it's a bit too nippy out there for her to want it left that way.

"Is harvesting stuff fun?" she wonders when Petal comes back.

"Harvesting stuff is fun!"

"Is it... more interesting than it looks?"

"Makes things!"

"It does! Is there a specific thing you're excited to make?"

"Pretty flowers!"

"You're going to make flowers out of the saffron petals?"

"Zhoop!"

"Will they be more saffron crocuses?"

This question, for some reason, stumps her again.

"...do you know what they'll be?"

"...same plant and different plant?" she tries. "...more. More pretty. More same plant."

"Like how the lapis thing you made is like a - shinier prettier version of regular lapis?"

"Yes!"

"So the crocus you make will... grow better saffron?"

"Don't know."

"How do you know the things you know - like - you know words because we taught you words, and the website taught you words. And you learned them. But how do you know things you didn't learn?"

"Knows things! Knows how to float and harvest and zhoop and talk." She ponders for a second, then concedes, "Doesn't know how knows things."

"You knew how to talk? I thought you had to learn how to talk."

"Knows how to talk. Doesn't know words before learns words."

"Is there a different language you knew how to speak already?"

"No different language." Petal's tiny face scrunches up in thought. "...before knows words, knows words are. Before knows words, knows talking is words."
