You reached Tallis. I'm either away being awesome, or I'm lying face down in a ditch somewhere. If I don't get back to you in twenty four hours, assume it's the second and send a rescue party.

Seriously.

I have two great dane puppies that will need more room as they grow larger, so a house with a backyard's a logical decision. I already have one roommate, but would you like to be the other?

[Now that's...quite the offer. For all her bluster and joking attitude, what Tallis wants, what Tallis craves is somewhere she feels like she can belong. The fact anyone actually wants her to live with them is surprising in itself, as is the realisation she really does want this. She doesn't have to keep herself to herself here. She can actually live, actually be herself. Whoever 'herself' is. ]

I've never seen a Great Dane before, but I sure do love puppies. Sure, why not? It'll be fun.

[It'll be more than fun, it'll mean a lot. Tallis won't admit to that, though. Nope. ]

[Have a picture of the two big-pawed fur piles laying on the couch.]

Great Dane is a breed of dog, and these are the two of them. They’ll get pretty big.

Great! Though there’s one more thing I should mention. My friend Cian will be living in the house too. He’s painfully shy and would benefit from living in a bigger place with nature nearby. Is that okay?

[learntoswim]

You can't hear me over this, but I just made an undignified squealing noise. They're so cute.

Cian, huh? Not met him, I'll make sure to send him a message. And that's fine by me, maybe living with people might get him out of his shell a little.

[thevelmster]

They're sweethearts, and of course they're already blanket thieves. I blame the blizzard spoiling them.

You should message him. He reminds me of a friend of mine back home. It's amusing that they're both tall too. Just don't scare him too much.

[learntoswim]

That is adorable.

I promise I will be my least terrifying.

text;

[thevelmster]

Wait until the get to be full sized.

Please do. Mentioning my name might help.

text;

[learntoswim]

That just means they'll be extra adorable.

Shall do. You can't see, but I'm saluting the screen.

[thevelmster]

Like small ponies. That level of adorable.

No need to salute, but thank you.

[learntoswim]

That IS adorable.

What can I say, on occasion, I like to be proper.

[thevelmster]

It's their superpower.

Well I'm not military, so I don't think it's proper.

[learntoswim]

I'm not either.

...Technically.

More secret police.

[thevelmster]

Well i'm just a scientist that does a bit of detective work from time to time.

[learntoswim]

Oh, look at that, we have a common element. Who knew.

[thevelmster]

On top of our love of dogs?

[learntoswim]

Yes, on top of that.

[thevelmster]

Which part?

[learntoswim]

The detective work thing?

...Detective, spying, same diff.

[thevelmster]

Slightly different. I thought you may have meant the science bit.

[learntoswim]

Oh yeah. No. I don't get science at all.

[thevelmster]

We might have to have a little discussion. You can sit in on science lessons when I tutor if you want.

[learntoswim]

Sure, why not. I love learning new things. Maybe I can teach you how to throw knives or pick locks. Even trade.

[thevelmster]

I'd probably be better at picking locks then knife throwing.

[learntoswim]

Then picking locks it is. I can easily get one for you to practise on, and I have the universe's supply of lockpicks.

[thevelmster]

Does this mean I can start making complicated locks for you to practice?
