Piglet's 1st Adventure

[verysmallpig]

[Accidental Audio]
[The sound is almost imperceptible, a soft thud against the soft grass near the fountain square. But the immediate noise that follows breaks the silence quite loudly as a very small animal gives a startled squeak of alarm.]

P-p-p-p-p-p.... oh! Oh d-d-d-dear!!! P-p-pooh?

[It was a testament to how frightened the little piglet was that the network device was able to detect the fidgeting of his small hands.]

Oh, d-d-dear d-dear... H-h-hello? Pooh? Christopher R-r-robin? I... I seem to have g-gotten myself a bit lost. S-s-s-somebody who is not a fierce animal, I hope... h-help me?

Oh! I'm not in the box!

... w-w-where... oh d-dear, oh dear.... [A bit too much stimuli for such a very small animal. So he resorts to something more familiar.]

W-would... you happen to know a W-winnie the P-pooh b-b-bear? O-or or... c-can you t-tell me how to get back to the Hundred Acre W-w-wood? I forgot that I had something that I had w-wanted to do that can only be done r-r-right now...

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Well, I have my own box. I can hear you through it, and you can hear me through yours.

I'm afraid I don't know a Winnie the Pooh bear, or the way to the Hundred Acre Wood. Are you a rabbit?

A t-talking box?

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

Oh no, no. I'm a Piglet!

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

A talking Piglet!

Are you from Narnia?

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

N-narnia?

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Oh, perhaps not.

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

I don't think so... you see I live in the... that is, I was just in the... and there was a... um... c-can you t-tell me where all the trees went?

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Well, they didn't go anywhere, really. You came here. This is the City.

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

The w-what? What's that?

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

It's a place. Like a forest, only where people live, not animals.

Well, some animals live here.

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

B-but... Christopher R-robin. He d-doesn't live in a place... that is to say, his home is in the Hundred Acre Wood too.

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Some people don't live in a City.

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

A-are you a relative of Christopher Robin, then? B-being human, I mean...

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Oh no, I don't think so. Most humans aren't related, you see.

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

T-they aren't?

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

No, not at all.

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

O-oh, I see. It's just that Rabbit's relations are quite a lot, a-and even Owl tells stories of his relatives. S-so I thought... maybe... that is... everyone would be related if they're the same kind of animal.

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Do you have any relatives?

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

Oh why yes... I live in... I mean, I used to live in my Grandparent's... that is, Owl's.... until I moved in with Pooh... except... I'm afraid I don't quite k-know how to get... home now.

I-is there... are there any trees around here? I s-suppose I need to *sniff* to try to find a n-nice one to s-stay in until I can f-find my way back.

[ooc note: there are ooc plans for Piglet to move in with Stork at some point. The concept was just too funny to pass up on.]

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

There are trees in Xanadu. It's a park.

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

A... part of what?

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Not a part. A park!

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

... oh. I-I see.

[It's clear from his tone that the little pig clearly does not. But maybe he is says he does, it will make things less confusing and clearer.]
