I seem to have gotten myself into quite a pickle.
Not only am I soaking wet, which is nearly ten times as worse when you have a long gown on, I am also freezing.
Can anyone tell me where in good heavens name I have ended up?
Direct me to some warmer clothing?

[Yeah, Jane looks like a drowned rat. This is not how she imagined she would be spending this day.]

You and I are somewhat a like in that respect. Though you are more of the logical side of thinking, and I am more making things realistic in my own way.

[She finally gives him one last little squeeze and pulls away.]

Should we talk about the mess?

Right you are.

[With the hug complete, his hands get tucked into his pockets.]

What mess? [No, seriously, Jane. This is basically clean. This is neat and organized. Why are you asking about a mess.

[She addresses the slew of bottles and..are those puppets? Everywhere.]

The mess in the house. I won't dog you about it but you surely won't mind if I pick up the mess, correct? [....She is afraid to ask about food.]

Have you and Roxy been cooking for yourselves here? The kitchen hardly looks touched.

Sure, do what you want. If you need a place to put the smuppets, you can pile them in my room.

[But that won't stop them from creeping back into the rest of the house. They simply cannot be contained.]

Roxy's been making rum cake. We don't tend to cook. Maybe Roxy knows how to make something with pumpkins, but there wasn't much to practice with back home.

[The thing that honestly concerns her is the amount of bottles. But she assumes those have been piling up for awhile.]

For your information, those things are highly out of proportion. [The nose is huge, and so is the hind quarters. But you know Jane is a little innocent on those things so her mind isn't even really going there.]

Ah, so then I need to treat you fellows to a home cooked dinner? It would be my pleasure.

[They have been piling up for months, it isn't as bad as it looks. Dirk makes sure that Roxy isn't going to hurt herself drinking.]

They're not meant to be realistic. [Oh, Jane. Some day you will learn. And you will probably be vaguely embarrassed to know this guy.]

As if we would object to a meal from Miss Crocker herself.

[As Jane continues to worry about Roxy drinking anyways. She just quirks a smile, she can't control what her friends do in their own house.]

I see, well then they just look very odd. [She might already be vaguely embarrassed to know him. From even looking at the smuppets.]

Splendid. I will just have to find the nearest market to find the things necessary to cook us all a wonderful feast.

It's how they're supposed to look. Don't worry about it. [And he'll just continue to be amused by her lack of understanding.]

What, Roxy hasn't given you the grand tour yet?

Okay then, if you say so. [Dirk should wait to ruin the innocence of the puppet. He should probably wait until they're good and settled.]

Well, we went shopping for dry clothing and that was about it. [Her still soaking wet golden jammies are hanging outside.]

[He'll be waiting until they're settled for a lot of things. He's not cruel, honestly.]

Then I can show you where the markets are, unless you'd like to make the trip yourself.

If you'd like to go with me that would be wonderful.

[She is more than willing to take her best friends everywhere with her. Smuppets, mutual crushes. They have so much to talk about.]

[So many non-awkward topics of conversation.]

Can't leave a lady without an escort, can I?

[She puts her hand on the door. ~~We don't have to continue the whole shopping thing if you don't want to.~~]

You're such a gentleman.
