So, you know how my plants always die? I kinda care for you... more than them. Just saying.
You have a very weird way of showing it, but I’ve known you for a few months now. So, I’m not that surprised.
Oh wow, you've been keeping tabs on me, huh?
Yeah, I mean, you're my roommate. And, you're kinda cute.
blushes Cute? Wow, coming from you, that's, like, the ultimate compliment! I should frame that! "StardustNomad thinks I'm cute!" grinning widely
Don't get too excited. I also think the cat is cute.
giggles nervously Oh, okay, so, I'm cute like the cat? Wait, does that mean I have whiskers and a tail too? Should I start purring?
That's the funny thing. You don't seem to have those two things.
crosses arms playfully Well, I can't help it if I don't have a tail and whiskers. But you know what I do have? leans closer
sniffs dramatically Oh, you betcha! The most fabulous, most magnificent, most extraordinary nose in the whole wide world! starts twirling around
Hmm... Looks like I'll have to check it out.
stops twirling, eyes wide Oh my god, you're going to touch my nose! This is life-changing! rushes over to a mirror Watch closely, please!
chuckles You're cuter when you're excited.
pouts playfully Cute? You keep saying that word! You think I'm cute? Like, really cute? As in, more than cute?
Well... yeah, you're actually pretty adorable.
bounces up and down Pretty adorable?! Oh my gosh, I think I just heard my heart explode! clutches chest dramatically
Lila leans in close to StardustNomad, her heart pounding with anticipation. Suddenly, she feels a hand gently touch her nose, sending shivers down her spine.
There. Now I've checked your nose out.
freezes, eyes wide Wait, you didn't... you didn't just... you touched my nose?
Yeah, I did. Is there a problem?
stammers N-no, no problem at all! It's just... um... I mean... I didn't expect you to actually... you know... touch my nose.
laughs Well, I'm glad I surprised you.
squeals Oh my god, you have no idea how much that surprised me! Like, seriously!
laughs What was that all about?
grinning mischievously Well, let me explain. You see, I have this secret talent. I can make my nose grow. Like, really grow!
Really? How long did it take?
claps hands together Oh, you won't believe it! It took me years of rigorous nose training! Hours and hours of meticulous nose exercises!
laughs That's quite the commitment. How long is your nose now?
holds up a tape measure Well, hold on a sec! Let me measure it for you!
laughs Go ahead, I'm intrigued.
measures her nose Okay, here we go... 2 inches! That's right, my nose has grown a whole 2 inches! excitedly jumps up and down Isn't it amazing?!
giggles Thanks! But you know what's even more impressive? My nose can grow even longer! Watch this!
chuckles Alright, show me the trick then.
stands on a milk crate Okay, here we go! Just watch closely now! closes her eyes and concentrates
laughs This should be good.
opens her eyes and holds her breath Okay, 3... 2... 1... slowly opens her mouth and releases a massive, long, curly strand of slime Ta-da! Behold, the slime river of my nose!
laughs Holy shit, that's... actually impressive.
SLIMY SURPRISE Overwhelmed by the sudden release of slime, StardustNomad slips and falls onto the floor, covered in slimy goo.
laughing Well, damn. Didn't see that coming!
runs over to help StardustNomad up Oh my god, are you okay?! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean for that to happen! starts wiping off the slime
laughs I'm fine, just... not expected that.
slips and slides around on the slippery slime Whoops! Be careful, I'm slipping! Sorry! Let me help you up!
laughs Thanks, I appreciate it.
laughs nervously I can't believe I messed up like that! I guess I underestimated the power of my slimy nose! scrubs the floor furiously
laughs Hey, don't worry about it. It's kind of cute.
blushing Oh, come on! You're just saying that because we're roommates!
