3 Monster Friends [Voice] - Content Warning

[wildlittlegirl]

[ The thing about having stunted growth, being raised by monsters, and then subsequently raised by a boy around your age, is that sometimes you miss out on being informed about key parts of life.

Arietta sniffles a few times before she manages to address the journal. ]

Is there a doctor... um... Can a doctor come here? A lady would be better... I think.

[ She takes a few unsteady breaths. ]

I don't know what happened. It won't stop bleeding...

What do I do when I'm asleep? [ She looks at the napkin again. ] Does this still work when I'm lying down?

action;

[gleamed]

Moooost of the time? [Wow, way to sound reassuring, Rapunzel.] I mean, yes. It does!

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

[ 8|;; ]

Um... can you go get some underwear for me? The only one I have here is dirty.

action;

[gleamed]

Oh - of course! Where do you keep it?

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

It's in the bottom drawer in my room.

[ ... Her room is the one that looks like the little girl's room. |D ]

action;

[gleamed]

Right. I'll be right back.

[And so she does go locate a room that could only be a little girl's, and is back a moment later with the clean underwear.]

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

[ Rapunzel you are lovely ;;

Arietta will take a moment to try to put these two puzzle pieces together.

To her credit, she gets it mostly right. ]

Like this?

action;

[gleamed]

[She tries.]

Yes! Yes. That's basically it. That should keep it from ruining anymore of your underwear.

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

... If I put it on then I can stand up again?

[ Please say yes please say yes ]

action;

[gleamed]

[She nods.] Yes! You can do pretty much everything you normally do. Though you might be more tired than normal. It's probably best if you take it easy for the rest of the day.

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

Alright. ... Thank you. [ She will set to work putting them on and flushing and all that miscellaneous stuff that goes into her getting off the toilet.

And then heeeeeeeesitantly standing up. ]

action;

[gleamed]

[Rapunzel offers her a sympathetic look.]

It's not so bad! And it only happens once a month!

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

... Once a month?

[ HOLD THE PHONE. ]

action;

[gleamed]

Yes, I'm afraid that's how often it'll happen to you now.

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

But... that's not fair!

[ D8 ]

action;

[gleamed]

Maybe not, but it's part of being a woman!

[Yep, welcome to womanhood.]

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

I don't want to be a woman. Monsters don't have to go through this.

action;

[gleamed]

Monsters...?

[Huh.]

In any case, it can't be helped. But it's not so bad! Trust me. You'll get used to it.

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

... How do you get used to it?

action;

[gleamed]

Well, drinking plenty of water and resting can help. It might sound silly, but ice cream helps, too!

action;

[wildlittlegirl]

Ice cream? Because it's cold?

[ She knows you sometimes put cold things on injuries! ]
