haha. really funny.
[ nodding his head. ]
it's alright ... no secrets here. it's not like after doing too much @##& there's something for me to be ashamed of.
at least.
I... I'm a...
L...
Gosh, this is harder than I thought! I guess the whole thing just feels really direct and--
I'm a... Le...
A... A.. Les... Oh, man...
I-I can't say it! I'm a coochie smoocher, guys!
"We should probably /both/ really get better about waking up on time. . .
Or at least somewhat close to morning."
Gently patting their back with a smile.

a small bit, her eyes widening just a tad.
"O-Oh!
M-Me? I ah. . .I'm. . .I'm alright. Just sleeping a little late, should probably kick that before it becomes a habit, heh. . ."
Ragatha nodded intently as she listened to the jester's words. Arms folded in front of herself in the same position they often rested.
"Good. . .I mean, at least I didn't miss any adventures or anything today then!"
Though that second question does seem to take her aback --
A sheepish smile decorated the small jester's face upon hearing Ragatha stumble upon her words. Not that it mattered, Pomni actually found it quite adorable.
"I'm doing pretty fine, my day has been pretty uneventful as well."

She whispered, holding Pomni's hand and giving it a reassuring squeeze.
"I-I ah. . .haven't even really gotten up and gotten moving today. . .
. . .How are you doing this mor—

". . .I-I'd have to learn how to do that again. . ."
She'd whisper, burying her face against Bubble to hide her tears. Hugging back as if she's never gotten a hug in years.
Which she probably hasn't. . .
Bubble brought Ragatha close, hugging her gently and patting her on the back.
"You aren't imprisoned in the four walls of that house anymore...You can love yourself here."
". . .I haven't loved myself in a really long time. . ."
Looking to Bubble, her lips quivering softly. The doll looked ready to absolutely break down crying.
". . .I grew up in the type of home where I was told that kind of thing is selfish. . ."
