When you try and pull hermits out of their houses they hold on with their abdomens until they rip in half and then they die. Instead of, um. Leaving their houses.

It's true.

Is that a statement to anyone in particular, or merely an observation?

[sisterskeeper]

I think being a puppy is something that's only enjoyable if you know you can turn back whenever you want. And I'm not sure you could - it'd be very confusing to be a puppy.

[baby_endless]

I think so. I think, um. I don't want to not be me. Not for a long time. Maybe never.

[sisterskeeper]

I don't think anyone does. Well, that's not entirely true, many adolescents wish they were someone other than who they are, but that's merely to do with hormonal fluctuations and I'm not entirely sure you would have hormones.

[baby_endless]

Sometimes I'm sort of made of them completely.

[sisterskeeper]

Yes, that would fit with what I remember of adolescence. Does it hurt?

[baby_endless]

It's kind of funny. Like a theme park. Sometimes it's like laughing and sometimes it's like screaming but mostly it's like there's too many people and you aren't sure what to do next.

Um. And sometimes you spin around and around and around until throwing up.

[sisterskeeper]

Hm, I don't really remember adolescence being like that. It was more ... being angry at things and people although I can sympathise with the being too many people.

If you have been adolescence, why are you always so young?

[baby_endless]

I am. I'm the youngest. Forever.

[sisterskeeper]

You'll always be the youngest - but maybe if you asked your siblings if they could age a little so that you could, they might?

[baby_endless]

Getting older doesn't help.

[sisterskeeper]

...no, I imagine it wouldn't. Age doesn't confer anything other than an increased statistical likeliness to suffer degenerative diseases.

[baby_endless]

Um.

Yes it does.

It really does.

[sisterskeeper]

I'm sorry. It's been an interesting few days for me.

[baby_endless]

You're making a face it it means interesting is the same thing as bad.

I think it means that. Unless it's something else.

I learned I'm inherently unlikable as myself. I learned that there's this wonderful misconception that I hate humanity or even individual aspects thereof. I learned that I missed sleeping during the day and getting sunburned - Kaylee probably won't appreciate that.

I think my expression means that it was painful, but possibly necessary.
