I don't feel like a room without a roof, and that's a good thing!

((HELLOOOOO. Inspiration hit me like a ton of bricks....Get used to that explanation whenever I post a chapter as of late, folks. ))


*clears his throat, a bit dramatically* ....Hi

Rosy Star: *in an obnoxious tone* HAAAAAAAAAAAAI! 8D

...Real tired of her face, aren't ya reader? Yeah, so am I.

Rosy Star: HEY, wait a minute!

I'm with you all. We should get to this chapter like nothing out of the ordinary has happened with my account, just so we see Rosy's face a little less. *tries to keep a serious face, though his mouth slightly twitches as he's tempted to snicker*

Rosy Star: Are you serious?! -_- IT'S BEEN THREE MONTHS!

Yes, I know Rosy, we JUST put out a LENGTHY chapter yesterday. We're gonna need some rest. *can't help but to smirk slightly this time* 

Rosy Star: What are you DOING?! WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS?! Dx

*grins as he puts on his 'Magical Tree of Harmony Museum' voice* OUR QUESTION IIIIIIIISSSSS...

Question (by TorchTorque): Which part of a house is the most important to you? It says a lot about a creature. Mine's the kitchen!

...I feel like a lot of creatures reading this will get and agree with your answer way more than mine....My answer is pretty hard to get if you don't know what it's like to be homeless, even for a day. Or at least, I think it'll be pretty hard to get. 'Cause my favorite part of a house isn't a room at all...it's the roof. 

It's easy to take roofs for granted when, to you, they're just there. But I was homeless in Griffonstone for 4 years. I had to learn all the complicated ways to get food, water, hygiene, sleep, among other stuff. In that time, I realized that as stressful and hard as it was to get any of those...when you know just how to get them, you can keep that procedure to get them in your mind to know what to do next time. Counting on a roof...was a lot harder. There's not a lot of buildings in Griffonstone, and the ones there are, they're shaky and unsafe. Then there's the fact that I...ehem, cannot stand small spaces, so for shelter, for a roof to protect me from the weather, I had to count on....trees, or a snow fort, or an actually big cave that took too long to find with all the smaller, suffocating caves everywhere else. 

None of these have the same quick, undeniable security of a roof in a house. Like, I've gone from hating, despising the rain to actually liking it. Now, when it rains, I'm perfectly protected in my room. I love that safety, knowing that those hundreds of drops of rain are just gonna pit-pat on my roof, and they won't wet my feathers and give me the fourth cold of the month. Now the rain is relaxing, perfect to sleep to, and reminds me that somehow, I've come a lot farther than I ever thought. That Griffonstone has been in the rear view for...for two years now. *smiles* That's just awesome. 

Sure, all the parts of a house are great to me. Even the bathroom is great (you'd be surprised at how hard it is to do your business without a toilet in Griffonstone!). But to me, the roof is the most important part. 

Now, with that settled...okay, I gotta be serious. I still have like...way too many fucking asks and dares to get to. Aaaand you're still gonna have that 'Let's post when I feel like it' approach, won't ya Rosy? 

Rosy Star: Yeaaah, I think so. Or at least, I don't think I can promise that we'll be more active yet. *smiles, a bit sheepishly*

I say we close the asks and dares! *smirks* 

Rosy Star: I say that's a dumb idea, because we won't open them until too long! -_-

*crosses his arms* And what's wrong about that? <n<

Rosy Star: *huffs* It's been two years, and you still refuse to think of the readers. Come on, Gallus. Closing asks and dares would be brutal to our readers! We should leave them open....as long as the readers expect their replies to take longer than usual. 

*glares* Easy for you to say. You don't have to compile every damn question like I do!! I'm gonna get spammed, I tell ya! SPAMMED!

Rosy Star: And you won't be around long enough to notice it too much, so it's settled!

*groans* We're right back to you being unable to even try to understand me. *says with fake whimsy* It's like we never left at all. 

Rosy Star: *gives a sweet look and smile* It's been a long time since we've done this, but I hope you can still enjoy the chapter and like how it's turned out, loyal readers! Your support will always make me feel happy and lucky!! *grins brightly, forming a little heart with a spark of her horn* It's great to talk to you again~! <3

*keeps gagging as Rosy speaks like the grumpy griff he is* Euuugghhh, you sap
