kay_gmd Surprising no one, least of all her mother, who was also up later than was wise reading, PJB did not stop at a reasonable time and go to bed. Long after her friends had breakfasted while they were romping in the palace gardens (except for Cute, who was just hanging up in the cellar for a good day’s sleep) PJB struggled awake pulling her face off of the control panel where it landed when nature decided just-one-more-page wasn’t an option.
After breakfast and a quick clean up PJB found her friends. She told them all about Harriet, and her adventures, and mostly about Humphrey the battle quail! PJB was determined to get her own quail.
Cute, who was woken up to consult on flying things, didn’t think it was a good idea. “Princess, it does sound like lots of fun, but quail aren’t that much bigger than me, and I can’t even carry Slimy. You’d totally smush a quail.”
Cera clomped into the conversation, she was fairly sure that when she grew up she was destined to be the Princess’s riding ‘Tops, and much preferred the side kick role, “but we could find something bigger that flies, and could carry a princess! That sounds like an adventure of investigation.” (For the record Cera was never in any danger of becoming a riding ‘Tops unless she wanted to PJB and family would never push that sort of thing, but it happened to Cera’s great aunt, and her family always worries about it.)
