[This post is 100% intended to be filtered to Tommy, but Bev is freaking out a bit because she can't help but to be.]

I need you to come get me. Please come get me. I'm by the haunted house, where it was. Oh god Tommy. Aaron was here. I thought it was Aaron anyway, but it's not him. I tried to touch him and my hand went right through and there was blood and then part of his head just was missing. It wasn't Aaron but...

It was like before. When he died.

I don't know. It's just stuff that I get at a florist. I gave them a list of things, and they put together a box.

[He smiles as Speedy, noticing the flower, makes a loud noise and starts reaching to wrap the claws of one hand around it. He's going to love munching that.]

[gristle]

It's pretty and it smells nice. Like kinda familiar.

[There's no small part of Bev that wants to try it, but, she doesn't and gives it to Speedy instead. How can she deny that fluffy little face?]

[doubled_speed]

[You can't and shouldn't. Because Speedy is wonderful. The little guy just slowly pulls the thing to his mouth and starts chewing away with those little teeth of his, wearing the flower down nibble by nibble.]

Yeah, it's pretty too. I get some from the florist that gives me leaves for him.

[Beverly would never do that to Speedy! She might, however go end up finding some hibiscus of her own though. But for now she just smiles at the delicate way that he's eating it.]

He's so cute. It's almost hard to believe that he's a real animal.

[doubled_speed]

[Yeah, really true. He smiles and sits down to watch them.]

My new roommate says he could, like, claw my eyes out in the future. I don't buy it.

[gristle]

I don't buy it either. It's all in how you raise animals. And Speedy is a good one and you're gonna raise him to be an even better one.

[doubled_speed]

[Except... animal natures. Can you really overcome nature?]

You really think?

[gristle]

Yeah, obviously! I mean people like have pet tigers and lions and bears and stuff all the time and they're dangerous. So, it's all in how you treat em!

[doubled_speed]

[Nurture over nature, huh? Interesting. He frowns. Not sure what to think about that.]

I try to treat him very good.

[gristle]

Of course you do! Because you're awesome!

[doubled_speed]

Well of course I am. So are you. That's why we're amazing friends. Because we're awesome. Or does that make us awesome friends? Huh.

[gristle]

I mean it obviously does duh.

[doubled_speed]

We're amazingly awesome friends then.

[gristle]

Well duh.

[Of course they are, which is why she just laughs softly and carefully so as not to disturb Speedy.]
