hey bruno! i got something in the mail i'm never going to use, but as it turns out, i think it'd be useful for that little show you put together

[He attaches a picture of a toy car big enough to fit several rats in the seats. It's a bright red convertible.]

i can drop it off wherever you're living. oh, and it moves on its own. you just tell it where to go and it goes.

[wedonttalkabout]

Hola, Amal.

Oh wow, another toy car! That'll be great, thanks. I kinda wrecked the last one when it went into the swimming pool. Sometimes, you gotta make sacrifices for your art, y'know?

But thanks! I'm in the big magical house in Midtown. Just tell it you're here to see me.

...

The house. I mean.


Because the house is sentient.


That's a thing.

[thavnairian]

perfect, i'll drop it off on my way to work tonight!

ohhhh you live in that house! the big colorful one! it reminds me a little of home when i look at it but i never went to investigate.

would you believe me if i said that wasn't the weirdest thing i've ever heard of? a few years back, i fought a sentient time-traveling castle that could walk like a giant. so as long as your house doesn't try to kill me, we're good

[wedonttalkabout]

Great, I look forward it.

That's the one!

Okay and that's pretty wild. Casita can't walk and it's friendly. It won't try to kill you, promise. It likes having people around.

[Though that does make him wonder how it might react to someone who attacked the family. After all, it was born out of sacrifice against people who definitely would have attacked them. Maybe it...would be less civil in a situation like that.]

[thavnairian]

got it. i will do my best not to offend your house haha

[wedonttalkabout]

Just tell it that it looks pretty. Casita loves compliments. Be charming, you can do charming!

[thavnairian]

oh you don't have to tell me twice. casita is beautiful!

my home city of radz-at-han has color everywhere-- intricate patterns, exquisite tapestries, beautiful painted murals... so seeing casita made me very nostalgic, even if it looks nothing like the homes i grew up around.

this town is so bland in comparison......

[wedonttalkabout]

That's the right sentiment!

Really? That's nice. All our houses are like that in the Encanto. I mean, Casita's the only sentient one, but we always colour our homes brightly in Columbia. And yeah, I hear you. Everything here is so grey and there's so much glass.
