[In this attractive, spacious sun room that overlooks a flowering meadow, there's a few inviting cushioned chairs, a wicker couch, a glass-topped table and some large potted plants in the corners.  There is also an Allen wielding a very thick book (it might be a dictionary), and a Timcanpy the size of a golf ball.  Allen looks like he's trying to

Hey! Stop hitting Timcampy!

[meansprout]

[Swats at the golem again, but Tim just darts out of the way like it's a game.] I will when it leaves me the fuck alone.

[acerfossor]

[FROWNS] Stop that! Tim's really nice, he's probably just saying hello.

[mean_sprout]

...No, it's not.

[Tim, however, is gonna flutter on over to check out this little Allen.]

[acerfossor]

[Grins up at Tim] And he's not an 'it'.

[mean_sprout]

[Hope you don't mind having a Tim on your head, kid.]

Yes it is. It's just a golem.

[acerfossor]

[Tim is my bff he can use me as a pillow all he wants]

No, he's definitely not! He's really smart and nice and he feels things. He's my friend, not an 'it'.

[mean_sprout]

[Allen just stares at the kid for a moment, wondering if this is seriously supposed to be an alternate version of himself.]

Right, well, if you can figure out how to get it to stop following me, then you can keep it.

[acerfossor]

[Shakes his head gently, mindful of Tim] That's no good, isn't he yours?

[meansprout]

Of course it's not mine.

[acerfossor]

He. Have you tried asking him nicely to leave you alone, instead of hitting him?

[meansprout]

It won't go away no matter what I say to it.

[acerfossor]

Stop calling him an it! It's rude! Maybe he wants something, have you asked him?

[mean_sprout]

It's not rude. It's a machine, it doesn't have a gender.

I don't care what it wants.

[acerfossor]

He's more than just a machine!

Even if it's important? You can't just ignore others.

[mean_sprout]

It's not.

I'm not interested in whatever it wants from me.
