[poeticverses]

[The feed opens up on a bewildered Jehan. He has in his hands a set of panpipes]

Of course. I imagine it would not have been left in such an obvious place if that were not the case.

[He blushes]

Thank you, mademoiselle.

[the_other_eight]

[That's just, adorable. Pepper's not used to seeing people blush anymore.]

Your welcome. When things calm down a bit I'll make sure I look you up so you can play for the eggs.

[Well, the one she's going to be helping look after at least.]
