I stared in bewilderment at what I had just heard. Goob most likely wasn't aware that he was hurting Shrimpo at all. He's the nicest toon ever, but then again, everybody says that. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the toon handlers babied him more than Toodles when she's the only kid in gardenview. "Maybe you should tell him about your physical state. Goob probably didn't know about it." The shrimp rolled his eyes at the suggestion. That had probably meant he already tried that option, and it failed miserably. "He has the memory of a goldfish. You expect him to remember something like that when he can't even remember to clean up." I knew about Scraps having a horrible memory but not Goob. The apple doesn't fall far from the family tree after all. Even so, such an injury shouldn't be blatantly ignored when it is in horrible condition.

I heard two fast but very small footsteps, which meant that was Toodles chasing after Pepple in a small game of tag. The medical room door was still opened, and the rock dog just walked right in. Hidden from her sight, the eight ball child ran past, unaware that Pepple is hiding under one of the beds. He jumped onto said bed and decided to just peacefully sit beside Shrimpo, who moved away slightly. "Bworf!" Pepple inched closer to the shrimp. "DON'T. YOU. DARE." That empty threat had no effect as the rock dog sat unmoving. Shrimpo was not having it, immediately standing up and booking it. "Arf! Arf!" Pepple followed after him, not having to walk that far as the shrimp already lost stamina. Fortunately for him, the eight ball child had come back and continued the game of tag with the rock dog.

I walked out of the medical room and offered a hand to Shrimpo, who had collapsed to the ground from exhaustion. Taking the offer, he stumbled while trying to get up. "My torso hurts so much..." Despite that, he still decided to run. [He must really hate that dog] After bringing him back to his room, I went back to my own to reflect on what happened on my very first day here with my new persona. The first day........ It was hectic, to say the least. Actually, now that I think about it.......... I became semi-friends with Shrimpo. Would never expect to see myself on the day that I even put effort just to interact with him, but here we are. Well, it's time for me to shut down and wait for the next day.
