Nine Truffula Trees

[The journal can pick up a lot of clanging and banging today, why? Because the Once-ler’s got his inventing groove on. York asked for a duplicate of his wagon-cottage-mahome and well, he’s happy to deliver. After all, it’s something he can do inside the safe confines of his room...with the the ‘mahome’ part at least. The rest? Well that may require leaving his safe haven, but sometimes you have to make sacrifices for science. He also appears to be singing while he works]

♫ We could while away the hours
Da da de da le da dedo
There would be lots and lots of flowers
And you could sit on a gazebo ♫

...It still doesn’t sound right.

[Not noticing his journal was open for that, he wanders over to his drawing board where it’s popped up to dictate into it]

Okay. Opinion time. When you're camping out, what's more important to you:
A: Having a working shower
or
B: Having a skylight

...This filter could go wrong in about ten million ways but that’s what you get for having an un-unique name.

Someone mentioned you had some scrap metal laying around your TARDIS. You using it for anything?

[ino]

Nah. If anything you kind of have a baby face.

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

I guess I'll take that as a compliment.

[Once-ler]

[ino]

It was supposed to be one.

Though I wouldn't mind looking a few years older ... [sigh :(]

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

I guess the not-aging thing must be tough around here, huh?

[Once-ler]

[ino]

Well, it would be fine if you already looked like an adult when you got here ...

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

This is me, counting myself lucky. [Don;t rub it in you asshat]

[Once-ler]

[ino]

[LMAO she just glares at the page] Good for you.

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

[Oh wait she sounds mad] And I did that talking without thinking thing again, sorry.

[Once-ler]

[ino]

Do you make that a habit?

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

It's less of a habit and more of one of my fatal flaws. I don't think I have that little voice in your head that tells you when to stop.

[Once-ler]

[ino]

I'm starting to notice that. [a little sigh] Anyways, you really are lucky.

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

It's not often I hear that any more.

[Once-ler]

[ino]

Well, it's true. People are always mistaking me for a kid.

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

Maybe you can get a badge to wear...

[Once-ler]

[ino]

A badge? That says what? "Hey, by the way, I'm an adult mentally even if I'm not physically"?

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

That's a little too much. How about 'I'm not as young as you think, ASK ME HOW!'.

[Once-ler]

[ino]

... Yeah, no thanks.

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

What? It could work.

[Once-ler]

[ino]

Or I could just explain it later to people who need to know.

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

There is that. I doesn't help with the mistaken age thing though.

[Once-ler]

[ino]

Maybe sometime soon I'll go home for a little bit and come back older! That would be so much better.

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

Does that even happen? Going back and coming back older?

[once-ler]

[ino]

It happened to me before.

[Ino]

[whichwayyoulean]

Really? Well, I hope that happens for you, then.

[onceler]

[ino]

Yeah ... [except going home to war kind of sucks] Say, is there anyone else from your home here?
