Pen wakes up at about four in the afternoon. It takes her a few seconds to remember why she's here, but then she remembers and starts looking for Cindy.

"Yay! I draw wall because of bored," she adds. "You bored, paint wall?"

[manofmyword]

"Mm, not exactly. Remember I told you I might be making a friend?"

[campanas]

"Yeah?"

[manofmyword]

"Well, we haven't been sending each other letters exactly. We both know a lot of people, and we're kind of playing a game where we each try to figure out who around here knows the other one. All very secret 'n stuff. He got some people I know arrested last week, so this week I found somebody he knows who works in Wayne Tower and I had some guys paint the outside of the building like my makeup, with a little extra bit of smile right where that person's office is. So now my maybe-friend knows I've found that one, and it's his turn to do something."

[campanas]

"Ooh. What if he finds me? You know me!"

[manofmyword]

"I bet he won't," he says, "'cause you're particularly hidden. As hidden as I am, and it's been four years and nobody's found me yet."

[campanas]

"So if he do he get so many points."

[manofmyword]

"He sure would."

[campanas]

"How you win game?"

[manofmyword]

"Don't know yet. We're making it up as we go along. That's part of the fun."

[campanas]

Pen giggles. "Iiiif he win you make him waffle?" she suggests.

[manofmyword]

"I might!"

[campanas]

"If you win he make you waffle," Pen continues.

[manofmyword]

"I don't know if he's any good at waffles. He could probably find somebody to make me one, though."

[campanas]

"Cheating," giggles Pen.

[manofmyword]

"We-ell, I'd let him. Good waffles with cheating are better than bad waffles played straight."

[campanas]

"Waffles important? Cheating not?"

[manofmyword]

"If you have to eat the waffles, yeah."

[campanas]

"Okay," Pen giggles. "How far place flying?"

[manofmyword]

"Not that far. A few more minutes."

[campanas]

"Okay. How long flying?"

[manofmyword]

"All day, if you want."

[campanas]

"Eeeee! You want me fly you too?"

[manofmyword]

"Sure!"

[campanas]

Pen claps. She looks merrily out the windows all the rest of the way there.
