[scaredofdogs]

Ahh..so it couldn't understand it because it only knows real words.

[That makes him feel a little better about their failure to translate it.]

Is the Jabberwocky fake too?

[lunchbreaks]

I had thought so, but here, who knows what is real and what isn't?

Was there anything else with this poem?

[scaredofdogs]

[He shakes his head.]

We found it inside one of the books about plants. It's like it wasn't supposed to be there.

[lunchbreaks]

Books?

--Where are the books?

I think Crowley should see them; he knows more about plants than I do...

[scaredofdogs]

I can show you! There is a room of them downstairs. Lan Zhan was going through them and trying to figure out how many different plants there was.

[lunchbreaks]

Ah, perfect! Let's go.

[scaredofdogs]

[He picks up the poem and heads towards the door.]

So these things described in the poem..how do they look in the stories?

[lunchbreaks]

Oh, it's just some fearsome thing meant to scare children. So I suppose... it looks quite similar to a dragon?

[scaredofdogs]

Ahh..well that would definitely be something that sticks out.

[He leads him down the hall towards the elevator.]

I wonder if one actually lives outside of the hotel.

[lunchbreaks]

Well, if it helps, I certainly haven't seen one inside the hotel!

But I did turn into a snake once, so I think perhaps even if we see a Jabberwock, it might just be another resident.

[scaredofdogs]

Ahh really?? Did you get to be a shapeshifter too??

[Because that was the most fun he's had.]

[lunchbreaks]

Oh.

You as well? What could you turn into?

[scaredofdogs]

I could turn into anything! I was a rabbit and a lizard.. I even used it to change into my previous body.

[lunchbreaks]

Oh! That's very useful. I should've liked to see that!

[scaredofdogs]

Maybe I can get it back and show you! If I do then I will certainly let you know.

[lunchbreaks]

Hmm, I wonder whose tea that was. I used to be able to do something similar!

[scaredofdogs]

Really? Maybe it was yours! I know someone who got one of my abilities recently. It was..not the best of ones to get..and I'm not sure she really got to enjoy it. But it's good to know that they haven't just disappeared.

[lunchbreaks]

Maybe! Did it taste like earl grey with cream? My other one did!

Actually... that hasn't worn off like the other teas.

[scaredofdogs]

Ahh..I don't really know how I would describe it. I don't think that was it though.

Your tea hasn't worn off?

[lunchbreaks]

Not the one for--

Let me show you.

[ He walks over to the bed in his room, and completely lifts the whole thing with one hand. ]

See?

[scaredofdogs]

You got super strength!? [He stares, rather impressed.]

I probably still have this tea..but it is much weaker then it was. I can't fully transform like I used to.

[lunchbreaks]

[ Well, yes. But he's always been this way, and it was taken away from him! ]

But you can still transform?

[scaredofdogs]

Usually the tea seems to last about four or five days..so this is about my last chance.

[Those rabbit ears pop up out. The extent of what he can do now sadly. He really enjoyed this tea..]

I never even got a chance to be a bird..

[lunchbreaks]

[ Oh. The ears. They're so... cute. ]

Oh. They look very...

Soft.

[ He can't help smiling. Sorry, he's too adorable. ]

[scaredofdogs]

[He smiles and reaches up to touch them.]

They are! And I think I was pretty soft as a bunny but I couldn't really tell. You can touch them if you want.
