Is she too much of an extravert for you, Pickles... Daan is like, 2% tempted to be entertained but his weird cheer from yesterday is gone. And he respects Sir Pickles too much, funnily enough. ]
Too bad it looks like we're still lacking in a library... there's that weirdly isolated tent though. Maybe it'd make for a half-decent place to get away from everything. [ No, don't. It's a nihilism tent and also from Midsommar. ] Maybe you could request a book from the Overseers? Marina's done that.
[ Pickles slightly moves his head side to side. He will request it himself. His gaze keeps shifting to Dani every now and then and the dog lets out a sigh.

W1, tuesday
From a respectful distance. ]
Saw them yesterday but up close... they really are large.
[ Farm animals are actually terrifying up close. ]
no subject
[ Pickles doesn't mind farm animals, but it looks like he's keeping a distance from Dani, the other dog. ]
no subject
Border collies are usually shepherding dogs, right? You don't feel it much in your blood?
[ This is mostly a joke, he doesn't actually expect Pickles to agree to it. Somethign something not beholden to blood and all that.
He glances between Pickles and the other dog on the farm. ]
...Looks like we're pretty fond of dogs.
[ With Ser Snuffles, that makes three. ]
no subject
Woof. Woo...
[ The puppy is fine with a good chase, but prefers to read books. ]

[ The puppy thanks you for your suggestion and will make a note to request his favorite.
Now Pickles will be in the haunted house 24/7 when he gets the book. rip my pcs /s ]
no subject
I'm more surprised you hadn't requested one yet, honestly.
no subject
The puppy says it had been wrapped up in many events that it forgot about books. ]
no subject
That's a pretty fair reason, all things considered.
[ You're so valid. Even before the actual murder happened, everything was still hectic. ]
Would you like me to request one for you?
no subject
The puppy says Dani is quite strange. ]
no subject
[ He looks over at Dani, who is out there... chillin'... ]
How so?
no subject
Woof...
[ The puppy was chatting with Dani and learned something weird about her.
If it sounds like a doggy date, no it wasn't. ]
no subject
...Right, I guess you would be able to converse with her easily.
What did she say to you?
no subject
Woof, woof. Awoo...
[ The puppy says that Dani has a boyfriend.
Pickles looks down at the device and paws it. It doesn't say anything more than that. He smacks it. Binch. ]
no subject
[ Looks down at Pickles. Oh my God. ]
Were you perhaps... interested?
no subject
Woof! Woof!!
[ The puppy says that she does not have an owner.
Pickles smacks the translator again after waiting a little. AAAAAAA ]
no subject
[ WHY IS IT GOING ROGUE AGAINST YOU, BUD. ]
Are you concerned about the fact that she appears to be a free-ranging dog?
[ ??? ]
no subject
Woof...
[ The puppy says Doggie is a very good translator.
...
The sigh of defeat. ]
no subject
[ Is this a regular thing that happens to you bud? This sounds like it's going to be a problem. ]
no subject
"It is sometimes like this."
So yeah, it sometimes does this, but Pickles seems very frustrated about this particular instance. ]
no subject
This dog could've written this entire time. Anyway he mentally revisits Pickles's struggle to convey a message. ]
Is it about the fact that there doesn't seem to be anybody else on this island?
no subject
Awoo...
[ The puppy says Dani eats meat.
...
Pickles gives up. ]
no subject
[ Just going to ignore the translator for Pickles's sake. ]
This island looks like it's overall pretty focused on self-efficiency. I don't think anyone is even looking after the actual animals there.
Not that I think human intervention is necessary for nature to thrive, but...
[ Huh. ]
Did she seem to have a personality?
no subject
Woo...
[ The puppy says that she is very friendly and energetic.
Pickles doesn't smack the translator this time, so maybe it's right. ]
no subject
[ They ARE still in cultland. ]
...I realise we're lacking pretty bad in any sort of outside contact still.
