Hi! It's so nice to meet you. I love meeting new people, it's so interesting. Oh, look! No, up at the sky, do you see that? That cloud looks like...something, I can't quite catch it...it's almost like this teddy I had, when I was a little girl, it was a lovely white teddy named Norman with these little black buttons for eyes. Except the buttons kept falling off, and they were sewed back on so many times his little face was covered in all these funny holes with stuffing poking out. Norman was made of that fabric, do you know what it's called, terry-something? The stuff towels are made of. He was my best teddy, I think. Except I also had this elephant, she was purple with green dots and a corduroy trunk, I can't remember her name, what was it? I really like the feeling of corduroy, do you know what I mean? It's an interesting fabric, such soft lines, and swooshy when you walk so it doesn't last long at all. Although of course my elephant's truck – what was her name? - didn't go for walks, that doesn't make sense, but I still wore it out fast running my hands along it, I like textures a lot, if you can't already tell. This dress that I'm wearing is made of silk, it feels so nice. I feel like a grown-up, a bit, when I wear this dress.
What? Oh, sorry. What was the question again? Oh, Lilith, yeah, I've met her. She's a nice girl. I don't think she realizes how lovely she is, really; she tries to cover up those magical eyes with silly masks and that pirate look she loves so much, but she's like a little pixie to me. I don't think she likes me much, but that's okay. I think she's sweet.
Oh look what I found! Would you like a candy? It's a peppermint swirl candycane twirly candy. It's really delicious, here, try one. It reminds me of Christmas, don't you think? It smells like Christmas, all minty and red and green swirly sweet...I think Christmas is my favourite holiday all of, how about you? Halloween? You sound like Lilith. I love holidays, they are all so wonderful, there's such a sense of possibility in the air during holidays! On Valentines day everything is pink and red and so soft, the air smells like cinnamon, and Easter tastes like chocolate eggs and half-bitten chocolate bunny ears and fluffy clouds. Of course, I don't know what clouds really taste like, but don't you imagine they are made of pink sweethearts and marshmallows? Oh, clouds, right...I think my elephant's name was Lilly. Or maybe Eve.
Sorry. What was the question again?
