{Seven (35)} &diams This is not the womp rat you are looking for

[burntorangesky]

How very unusual.

Innovator, the packing is taking longer than I anticipated; please do not think I have forgotten your offer. My new [pen taps] 'pet' keeps distracting me.

If anyone happens to see a large Womprat trailing after me, please do not attempt to scare it away. It seems oddly [pen tap, pen tap] friendly, and quite fond of my company.-

A womp rat?

Well, if you say it's friendly...

[He is of course thinking of these.]

[burntorangesky]

Unusually so, yes. It seems to enjoy curling up in my lap, which is both a bit tricky and making it difficult to get my work done.

[What I was hoping for~&hearts
But her womprat is a good deal smaller, with more legs. And probably cuter. That thing is ugly.]

[desig_survivor]

And it fits?

I guess the strange-looking animals are back. Well, I've seen something out of the corner of my eye a few times, but it's kept out of sight.

[Aww. You don't think this is cute?

I should get Rogue stalked by a Corellian sand panther or something.]

[burntorangesky]

Just about--though about five of the back legs seem to have a great deal of difficulty staying on my lap.

Back? I hope yours turns out to be something not too dangerous.

[No. DDDDDDDDDDDDDD8

Lol, awesome. Poisonous kitty! XD]

[grab_my_bells]

What exactly is a womp rat?

[burntorangesky]

It looks something like an Earth-type rat, save it is one meter long with fifteen legs.

They are usually more wild than this; perhaps someone attempted to tame this one.

[grab_my_bells]

"Something like" sounds like "nothing like," then.

Just don't let it bite you. You of all people don't need to be keeping dangerous pets around.

[burntorangesky]

Well, it is a good deal larger, but the basic body structure is surprisingly similar. Other than the number of legs.

[Pentaps. Honestly. Does no one trust her? Don't answer that.]

Don't worry, it is fine. It has not even attempted to nibble on me as of yet, I promise. Besides, it got into my house somehow; it is not as though I went looking for it.

[trustingtruth]

Have you given it a name?

[burntorangesky]

Not yet, though I suppose I ought to.

[Pause, pentaps]

I will have to give the matter some thought.

[trustingtruth]

Let me know what you decide on. Do you know if it's a girl or a boy?

[burntorangesky]

[Pause while she checks, lol]

A male. [Another pause; why does this guy want to know what she names the Womprat?]

You are [Slight pause. Truth was reported missing, so...] Trust, correct?
