Kinger sorts through his insect collection, all of the insects being fruit flies.

Ragatha wandered around the tent, searching for anyone who was up and about.

"I'm not gonna be like Kaufmo." Pomni said, although her voice shook a bit.

Eventually, Ragatha decided to go check on Pomni, the new one. She suspected she was still just as frazzled as she had been the day before, and wanted to do anything she could to help.

Kinger happened to be right nearby Ragatha. "RAGATHA!" he shouts in fear. "What are you doin?"

Ragatha jumped, startled. "Oh- Hi, Kinger. I was just on my way to check on Pomni."

"Oh, you mean the crazy one? Maybe I can come. I'm quite helpful. Maybe she needs an insect collection."

Zooble strolled away. her motives were unknown.
(not sure why I wanted to phrase it like that😅)

"I guess you can. Try not to… overwhelm her, though."

(haha, yeah)

"Will do!" Kinger follwed Ragatha the rest of the way in silence.

They got to Pomni's door and Ragatha knocked softly. "Pomni? Are you doing okay?"

Pomni sighed, trying to at least take off the ridiculous jester hat on their head.

"We can leave if you're not in the mood… We just wanted to check on you. The first few days are always the worst."

"I'll be fine, i'll wake up soon."

Ragatha frowned. "I know you think that, and I'm not trying to hurt your feelings… but this isn't a dream. You aren't going to be waking up." She tried to explain in the kindest way possible.

"Thats what a dream person would say.." Pomni muttered.

"Exactly! We'd be less crazy if we were sleeping! Just know, it's okay to go a little bonkers!" Kinger…well, he tries to help.

"I'm not crazy. yet-" Pomni frowned. "Why can't i even take the hat off?"

"It's a part of your avatar. You can't exactly take it off… believe me, I've tried."

"Hmph. its not fair i have to be a jester-"

"Hey, it's okay. I hated this at first too, but eventually I got used to it. And Jax isn't as confident about the whole bunny thing he has going on as he says he is. Come to think of it, I don't think any of us are the most confident, except for maybe Bubble. I know Zooble was really insecure at first, too." She smiled slightly. "Don't tell either of them I told you, though."

"But you all look so cool, and im i literal clown."

"So was Kaufmo, and I thought he was cool." She frowned.

"I never met him- except- y'know…. After he abstracted-"

"Yeah… he was really nice. Kinda shy. You would have liked him." She smiled slightly

Pomni smiled a bit. "Hm. Where is Caine? How much does he usually show up?"

Ragatha shrugged. "Depends on the day. He's really unpredictable.'

"beep. That's frustrating."

(sorry! i was asleep!)
"yeah, get used to it. and by the way, i heard that bunny comment. and for the record it isn't true." said jax. he was a big triangle, tossing up and down what seemed to be one of zooble's antennae.

Ragatha sighed. "It's true and you know it. And please be nice to Zooble, she had enough of being torn apart yesterday."
