Carrying home a pillow case with a baby kangaroo in it that keeps trying to escape because he's a cheeky little bugger after trading Pat in at the post office for him coz it's too cold for him now here and he was sad and I don't think the Postie's a bad bloke, aside from taking ears and shit, so he seems alright and I've got Joey here instead and he keeps tryin' ta thump me even though he's a baby.

[ She's good! n_n She's also wearing a huge scarf, so she pulls it down a little to get a better look. ]

[He holds the bag out just a little so she can see- he likes Taiwan.] Wanna take a peek?

[ She actually thinks about this for a moment. Which one was that... Oh! Oh he's gonna let her look at it? Yay... ]

Yeah! I like kangaroos! [ Taiwan you like every animal!!! She leans in a little closer to see. ] Helloooo...

[Joey pokes his little head out between the gap at the opening of the bag, sniffing the air tentatively.]

The bag's supposed to remind him of his mum's pouch. Might make him a nicer one when I get back, bit warmer. Kiwi might lend me some wool....

Wool...? [ Taiwan's Inner Mind Theater: a naked Censor in autumn. ]

How will he find a girlfriend, then? You gotta feel sorry for the sheep, too!
