( he's heard word that Robin isn't "talkative" lately, and it worries him enough to check in. that's all this is, nothin' special! )

How are things up there, Robin? Has Spring reached you yet?

[beaconkeeper]

Brrr, no way!! It's too windy out here on the cliff, I'm stuck in winter hell forever. >:(

But I'm OK otherwise. Relieved Dr. S is finally talking to you guys! How's tricks on the ground?

[catholicisms]

If it makes you feel better, it's still plenty cold down here too.

A bit quiet. Other than the birds. Hopefully at least those get up to you.

[beaconkeeper]

They do!!!! I love it! Spring is my fav season. :) Even around here, lol. I'm soooo glad the birds are back.

[catholicisms]

Is it because spring is approaching they came back?

I remember when I first arrived, it was unbearably quiet, and then some insect spirits arrived. The timing seemed strange, since it was already summer.

( which makes him think it isn't just seasons that draws these spirits out of hiding. )

[beaconkeeper]

Partly! The animal-looking spirits only show up for the groups they trust. :) They like you guys!!!

I have a feeling we'll see more wildlife around the longer you're all here.

[catholicisms]

( oh. that's cute. aww. )

That's a nice thought, isn't it?

What sort of animal spirits are there?

[beaconkeeper]

Oh like a whole bunch! Pretty much any sorta woodland critter you could imagine in a place like this and then some. I think most of what's left that hasn't come back yet is like, deer and stuff? I've heard of people seeing moose and bears occasionally, but then sometimes there will be like really weird animals? Tigers, kangaroos... I saw a giraffe spirit one time!! They poked their lil head right thru my window and nearly gave me a heart attack.

[catholicisms]

There's only so much nature I'm used to. What about pigeon spirits? I'm definitely used to pigeons. Ducks, maybe.

( he's teasing, the variety sounds charming. ...though tigers and bears, oh my, sound a little dangerous. )

I'll keep my ear to the ground for other animals showing up. Especially giraffes, if they're troublemakers.

[beaconkeeper]

Ooh yeah I think I've seen pigeons around!! And ducks! I know I've seen geese flying around before. :)

But GOOD let me know if you get wind of anything nuts!!!

[catholicisms]

Call me crazy, but I almost hope they do. It'd sound more like home here.

I'll let you know, Robin. Stay safe up there.
