Hey, Dad! Check it out! I figured out this computer thingy! It was really weird, though, all those beepy noises and lights and it was kinda freaky for a second, y'know

Hello!

[coveredinsoot]

Hi! Who're you?

[stairblock]

I'm Melissa. You know Mr. Lighter?

[coveredinsoot]

Yeah! He's my Dad!

[stairblock]

[stairblock]

Oh. That's nice.

[coveredinsoot]

Huh? What's your problem?

[stairblock]

Nothing! Your dad is really nice.

[coveredinsoot]

Yup! He's the best.

[stairblock]

So what kind of things do you like to do?

[coveredinsoot]

Um... I like baking!
I dunno... playing stuff like hide and seek is fun?
What do people do for fun around here?

[stairblock]

I like playing hide and seek too!

I don't know what everyone else does. I like to explore and draw a lot. Ionia (that's my best friend) goes to classes and stuff and builds robots.

I also have a friend who is teaching a class soon. His name is Ganny. And also Mr. Hyde and he does the Lost and Found.

One time I was running away from playing a game with the janitor and I ran into a restaurant where everyone was having a big party too. 'cept no one was sitting down and everyone kept trying to get me to leave. Except for Mr. Lighter.

That's all I know.

[coveredinsoot]

You have a friend that builds robots? woooah. But I thought robots were bad!

That's weird, why would they make you leave the party? Maybe it was some boring grown-up thing.

[stairblock]

I don't think they're bad. I never even saw a robot before coming here. Ionia has a cool robot that looks like a unicorn and I got to ride it one time. Robots are kinda like people, I guess. There's some bad ones and some good ones.

It was a grown-up thing. Everyone there was probably 40 or older or something. I guess they just didn't want a kid at their party.
