I certainly hope they don't intend to keep us on such a strict curfew forever. I've always been a bit of a night owl, and I guess I'm not used to being told when I can and can't go out... Still, I suppose cooperation is the best route. There's really no need for more trouble in a place like this, is there?

You had talking plants in your world?

[awful_awkward]

...Huh?

Uh, no! What? You didn't have talking plants in yours, did you?

[barrelspazz]

Er, kind of. Once! But that was because of something else. But...! Um, if you didn't have talking plants, why would you wanna talk to one?

[awful_awkward]

Oh my. Well, uh, aren't you supposed to talk to plants to help them grow? That's all I meant. I never really expected they would talk back; a one-sided conversation is better than none at all.

Pets wouldn't be that great unless you've got too much free time to kill.

... Hold on. You just said something bad. A curfew?

[awful_awkward]

Well, as it stands, I have quite a bit of time to kill. Besides, I wouldn't get anything too high-maintenance.

Er, yes, there's been a recent change in the law. We're all on a strict curfew, for now.

[kyokushi_nanaya]

I guess that's not too bad, then. Hm.

... Huh. I wonder if it's because of the murders.

[awful_awkward]

Uh, yes that's what I thought.

M-Murders? Who's been murdered? I haven't heard anything in the news!
