*she's beyond impressed and eager, she sighs contently as the smell floats around them* GLaDOS would get better results if she used pie instead of cake. Where did you even get an entire pie anyways? Is it poisoned? Made out of epoxy and asbestos? *she eyes it again* Eh, if it takes as good as it smells, it'll be a fine death!

*she works on detangling the lake soaked mess of hair on her head and eyes the box* Oh? What did you steal? *laughing, she thinks on it* Hope it isn't tracked.

*one particularly tiny bird tries snuggling into sarin's collar while veloce giggles. GLaDOS takes hardly a pause to answer* It is dirty, and full of birds. And potentially dead children. No.

*veloce grabs the skull and carries it with her* I'ma toss it off the walks! *no problem there. GLaDOS fumbles on her speech trying to get a word in, she waits until his small panic is over* The child is chipped, she will regenerate. If it matters, they took the path within the living quarters. Though I am curious why you agreed to watch it. Careless mother, truly.

Yeah. *still unsure of the old man* Hope he's alone, heh. Let's go! *she resumes her position and after learning her lesson last time, clings to john from behind. she offers the best directions she can, towards the hidden lake she remembers. apparently not too far, five miles at best* We should go swimming! I bet the water is clean, there's no people around to muck it up.

*the old man frowns, but then offers a smile* If ya say so, kids. *cat looks back, glaring, but with some hidden concern* He's weird. *mumbled* Suppose we should go ahead some more and make camp? Unless you like old creepy hobo man for a neighbor.

*she runs her face into the grass and makes muffled happy noises* I could lay here for days. *her head lifts suddenly* I hope this is real, this better be real.

*veloce grins, a little too much like her mother. she starts running in circles* Let's go let's go! I get to fly! *she grabs sarin's hands as she rushes around* When I get good at flying I'll fly you everywhere!
