The short one moves closer, stooping to all fours for a moment before prancing up to you and placing a friendly arm on your shoulder. It says something to you, or at least you think it does? But unlike the voice in your head, all you can make out are slightly quizzical yips and yaps, devoid of any sense. You illustrate the issue by jumping up and down several times, and also dabbing.
“Oh right sorry! I forgot about that! Sorry, I’m still getting the hang of all this.”

Talking
Suddenly, a Dialoguethought enters your head, or, well, more Slanglike a collection of thoughts, all bundledChat together. They splitLanguage up and make their way Vocabularyto variousComment parts of your mind, slottingTone in, forming new connections Discussionbetween concepts Whisperand altering the way you feel and act. The act of speechListen becomes familiar to you once more, simple and clear in ways youCommunication couldn’t reach before.
It’s a little overwhelming, but once things stop moving you feel fine again, ready to speak your first words to the friendly folk around you.
“Apple.”
The dog-type looks at you, then looks around, as if expecting to find the fruit in question. They fail to do so, but one appears out of thin air and drops to the floor, no doubt the gift of your unseen observer. The dog-type stares at it for a few moments with a slightly befuddled expression, before turning back to you.
“...Anyway, I was saying my name is Cushion, and the one over there is Window, she’s a bit shy though, but I’m sure she’ll come around on you! Let’s go, I’ll show you around.”
They grip your hand and pull you through the door. Outside the room, you immediately step into a field of grass tall enough to hide your legs. Turning back, you can see that the building was more of a cabin, with not much else other than the single room you were in. Window gives a small “hi” as you pass her, before following you and Cushion at a distance.
Around you are a couple more cabins, a pool of water with a slide, a table with cards scattered on it, a playground with another slide, and several small toys and objects you can’t currently recognise the function of. In the distance, the field of grass comes to an end and what looks like a rocky plain spreads forth. The voice seems silent for now, waiting to see what you think of everything.
