[ Maple's reaction confirms that the plushie was quite possibly the most valuable piece of Star 4 information to divulge. She really seems charmed by the notion that Add owns a cherished squishy companion that he might cuddle reverently from time to time when there's no one around to witness it... Pleased, Alice brightens in kind, if not with Maple's sweet sparkling.
Now to answer her questions—
What kind of plushie is it? It resembles a cow, perhaps...? ]
Of course! A mere verbal description isn't sufficient. Nevertheless, it's black in color, and it has two large horns, two rounded ears, and a snout...
[ Extending his right arm, as if to escort Maple from the common room to Star 4, Alice motions for her to follow him. ]
This way — soon you shall see it with your own eyes...
[ In fact, once they reach the room, and Alice holds the door open for Maple, standing out of the way to let her enter, she'll have a good view of Star 4 in its entirety, from the odd plant to the beds. Perched on one of the single beds, watching over the pillow, there it is: Add's plushie, long horns framing a stitched pentagram on its forehead. ]
( a dragon? is it a dragon? its description sounds like it might be one — oh, it's kind of like a game, isn't it? she runs the possibilities through her mind as they make their way to the room, an absent finger tapping against her lips as she thinks them through, though she switches to clasping her hands in front of her as she's led to the bedroom they share. at first, she peers in through the doorway, as if to look for it from there — but at alice's gentlemanly door-holding, she offers a smile and steps inside. )
Oh, it's so cute!
( closing the distance between herself and the bed, maple crouches down and holds her knees to keep herself steady as she gets a closer look at the plushie. in fact, she even reaches out to gently pet its head, as if it were a rabbit or some other type of small creature. they have to be gentle with add's friend, after all. )
Heehee, do you suppose it's keeping guard?
( the little guy looks so tough after all, with the horns and the pentagram. surely they're there to defend add's precious things while he's away. )
[ This secret first meeting between Maple and the dutiful plushie is truly cute to behold. She greets the pillow guardian with both polite respect and friendly warmth, touching the toy so carefully... If it could respond, Alice doesn't doubt that it would appreciate receiving due recognition.
Crossing the room, he joins Maple beside Add's bed for a closer look of his own — he's never done so before, and her questions have piqued his curiosity. To describe the plushie as fully cow-shaped is inaccurate... ]
Add is quite a mysterious fellow, so it wouldn't surprise me if his plushie is supposed to deter any intruders from coming too close. It never leaves its post...
[ Alice bends his knees to peer at the pentagram. Isn't that an occult symbol? The plushie could have some kind of ward woven into it! ]
Since we're allowed to enter the room and approach, it seems we have its approval, and therefore Add's! However, I don't recognize this animal...
