My lady mun,

I trust my own daughter to roam about the wilds of the internet without needing to fear me around every corner. She writes her own story and her own rules and--

-You know there's boys on these things-

There's what? -she shakes her head and holds herself tall- Merida is more than capable of looking after herself. And she knows to come to her father and I should the need for help arises.

Comments

[dunbrochqueen]

Right. Of course. And these people know of your skills and your father's skills, of course?

-Her own skills are something she didn't want to speak of often-

[myownhand]

Aye. Though, sometimes that doesn't help. There's lots of types around here.

[dunbrochqueen]

...What other types?

[myownhand]

I've met dragons, gods, people from space, all sorts.

But I'm fine!

I try t'avoid anyone who isn't friendly.


[KIND OF]

[dunbrochqueen]

Dragons?! Gods?! People from space?!

[myownhand]

...Aye?

[dunbrochqueen]

Merida!

-WHAT. EXPLAIN BEFORE MUMMY HAS AN ANEURYSM-

[myownhand]

[DASHIODHISOADHISOA]

Well, there's all types on here! Not just normal people.

Y'know how magic is real and everythin'. Right?

People come from all over here! Not just DunBroch! But th'future and th'past. So y'can meet anyone! From anywhere!

[ANd that is so ridiculously exciting okay?]

[dunbrochqueen]

Anyone from ... from anywhere you say?

-uh, maybe best not to rehash the youth times with thine own daughter-

[myownhand]

Yes! I've got t'eat so many strange foods.

Like these things called Peeps. And popcorn.

[SUDDENLY PERKS UP]

And chocolate! Y'have t'try chocolate, mum!

[dunbrochqueen]

Peeps? Popcorn?

-Dear, you're talking her in circles-

Och, were your father here, he'd want to eat all of it!

[myownhand]

I've seen him around! Though not as often lately.

But he's off talkin' about bears and such.

[ YOU KNOW]

[dunbrochqueen]

Och, still? We took care of Mor'du ages ago!

[myownhand]

D'y'think that'll stop him from talkin' about that bear?

[dunbrochqueen]

Sometimes, I think yer father misses his adventures from his youth.

-SIGH-

[myownhand]

Dad gets plenty enough adventures with the triplets as it is.

[A pause now]

I do feel sorry for that prince, though.

Locked up as Mor'du for all those years.

[dunbrochqueen]

-And here, Elinor nods solemnly-

Could have been lonely like that, with just the memory of his life as a prince.

[myownhand]

I'm glad we were able t'help him. Even if it took a bit of trouble t'get there.

[Nervous laugh here]

[dunbrochqueen]

Och, my wee brave lassie.

-here, mummy glompy bear hugs-

[myownhand]

Muuuuum!

[THIS IS EMBARASSINGDIOShdioasdh

But of course she's hugging back]

[dunbrochqueen]

-JUST ACCEPT THE HUG, MERIDA-

[myownhand]

[FINE. HUGS]

[dunbrochqueen]

-That's a good lassie-
