Very much like my bees and chickens, yes yes! They know I love them and will care for them and protect them. The goats are more ornery. But that is usually goats for you.

It sounds as though your Isaac knew he had found his person. Animals are like that, I find. They perceive things that we cannot. Heads too full of all the flotsam and jetsam of everyday life. He has a very good sense, and you care for him, reward that faith in you.

Ooh! How did you come to meet your frogs?

"Well, then I'd suggest coming to the Shroud, yes yes! It's an especially beautiful time of year, and it's quiet, peaceful and secluded. Just... mind the boars. It's getting close to rutting season."

Mitsu is definitely more sun coded. He's a cheerful, happy fellow, very warm and welcoming. People would definitely say that he has a sunny disposition.

"What kind of vacation would you want? Are you the sort who wants to do things on your vacation, or do you want to hole up somewhere secluded from peace and quiet?"

No, holistic as in... You know what, never mind. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Regardless, once you get here we'll start with a steam bath and herbal soak. If you've any allergies, I'll need you to let me know so I can make certain nothing I use for you includes them.

That's not... particularly helpful.

Ohh well - good morning to you too.

How do we know which is which?

Bricks... what in the name of all that is holy...?

You know what, never mind.

Naturally my services include aromatherapy as well. This is a holistic experience, I don't do half-arsed work You'd better bring your own robe though; nothing I have is going to fit you.

I... wha... of /course/ I invited you! I would have thought that was obvious when I said 'come to my home'! And you don't even have the excuse of lop ears to not hear well!

I'm not /making/ you come. I'm inviting you. There's a rather vast degree of difference. It isn't as if I'm going to show up and frogmarch you to the Shroud!

(If you really had done such unspeakable things to poor bees, I would have been tempted though.)

(Ohh thank the gods for that...)

Alright, just let me know when you will arrive. You're a bit taller than me, so I'll need to make some adjustments to furniture and such in preparation.

Well, massage would likely be part of the process, at least a scalp massage anyway, and I should hope that you'd be happy at the end of it, if only so no bees will be harmed in your pursuit of beauty. But as I said, I'm not going to charge you anything.

Come to my cottage. I will give you a full spa experience and makeover. You will look and feel like a new man, I promise.

I'll make you a deal. Try my methods first before you start trying any entomological beautification tricks.

/Please./

It makes me able to hear my bees and chickens and garden better.

(And less easy to hear tall people talking about inhumane treatment of bees.)

You are very tall. I have to use many words to make sure that at least the important ones won't be lost en route.

They will sting you. Which will more than likely be excruciatingly painful, make your face swell most unattractively and will, again, cause the bees to die. If you want to stick wasps or hornets in your mouth to get that swollen face look, be my guest but don't go causing bees to die for this.
