In a couple of days it will have been five months that I've been here in Vallo and while I know a lot of you have been here way longer, it's definitely the longest I have been settled in one place in a very long while. Where does the time go?

BELLS HELLS

Hey, I meant to mention this earlier, but with the wedding and now the race prep and everything else, it just got a bit lost in the shuffle. Last week, I helped a ~~girl~~ ~~young lady--no~~ new arrival that I came across while I was on my patrol. Her name is Fig and she's pretty young, I think, a tiefling, and a bit surprised about being here, which I think we can all relate to.

Anyway, she has some friends here, but because she's younger, I thought that I'd check in on her just to make sure she's eating and settling in okay. She might brush me off, but in case she doesn't, do any of you have any idea how to talk to a teenager?

FIG

How are you settling in?

	So are you! You have a nice, calming presence. You might be overthinking this conversation thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm going to trust you on that one, but you're probably right. Like I told FCG, it's been a while since I've been a teenager and not much longer since I've been around them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It can't be all that different, right? And she took a liking to you. As long as she doesn't seem to be put off by conversation with you, which I do think is impossible, you are very easy to talk to, then I think you're doing the right thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're very good at these pep talks. Did I tell you that she turned into me? A taller version, but me. Pretty sure it was a panic response of being in a weird place. So, you know, if you see a taller me around, it's probably not me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	THAT'S IT, WE NEED US A CODE WORD. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What do you think it should be? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What's everyone's favorite food? We know FCG doesn't eat but we'll still count them anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's a tough question. Pie was a surprise and now I really like it, but there are other foods I like, too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Okay. Good start. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	She turned into you? I have to agree with Chetney ~~does that happen? I think this might be a first~~ we should definitely have a code word. Not against her, but if anyone else might have shapeshifting powers we don't know about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think it's pretty harmless with her, but it is a worry that I've never thought of before. A code word is probably easier than asking the person to tell us something only they'd know in the heat of the moment. (Reply to this) (Parent)
