#“Box is very comfy... Safe and warm... Sleepy... Mmblurblurb... Zzz...”

Hey fake don't be sorry, it's understandable! You're overwhelmed and forgetting about something is reasonable in you stage. Take some time Fake! You have brick, the special need rat, after all!!

Speaking of Brick, is it really a girl?? Since I still remember Gustavo using she/her on it

Pep: "Sdneirf, uoy knaht..."

Pep: "Ypeels... Mraw dna efas... Yfmoc yrev si xob... Mmblurblurb... Zzz..."

Brick: *curious squeak*

Brick: *happy squeak*

Gustavo: "Oh! You must be the little box of hundred voices Peppino told me about! Hello, it is nice to meet you! I am doing well!"

Peppino: (How did that get in here...?)

Gustavo: "What have I been up to since the tower fell? Well, I've mostly been helping the old tower residents to find new homes! Since I've explored a lot and met so many folks, I believe we can work to find a place for everyone!"

Gustavo: "Brick has been good too! She just finished school, and we're waiting for her custom harness to arrive. And yes, she is a girl, but she doesn't seem to mind what she is referred to as. She mostly just wants cheese and scritches. Speaking of, she will get extra of both today for a good job. But not while we're cooking - Peppino doesn't want to encourage her to come into the kitchen for food."

Gustavo: "And I of course I don't mind Pep staying here! It's Peppino's decision, after all. And while I have yet to meet him properly, from what I've seen, he sounds very nice! And he must be if Peppino let him stay."

Gustavo: "But he has always been a big softie~. In an ideal world, he would have adopted every stray cat he's found, and probably be running a cat café~."

Peppino: "Ey! You said you wouldn't share the things I say when I'm wine drunk!"

Gustavo: "Hehe, sorry Peppino~."

Peppino: "You are not sorry, bastardo."

(Pep is now asleep! They'll be awake and back to answering asks in a little while)
