Valari:
>"Ahh, SHEE6, you have returned. I expected as much. No doubt you have come to investigate the true nature of the cave. And although its secrets are--"SHEE6 just laughs and shakes her head.
SHEE6:
>"No indeed, good forest dweller. I have ventured dauntlessly into the forest once more to avail mineself of your company and extend mine greetings. And for Taco Bear, I have brought another delightful meal of mine mother's tacos, which I hope she may enjoy with the utmost gustatory gusto! And as for you, kind Valari, I have come forth with tidings of friendship and to wish your continued..... um, c-continued....."SHEE6 notices that Valari isn't wearing any clothes, and trails off into an uncertain laugh.
SHEE6:
>"I must beg your pardon, mine unclad new acquaintance, for I find mineself puzzled by your present state of nudity. Mine own mother has very clearly explained to me at length that I must always remain clothed in such a way that mine bosom is covered while we are entertaining guests, and I had been led to believe that this is a nigh-universal custom. I would be most curious to learn if she is mistaken in that notion."Valari sighs and looks aside sheepishly.
Valari:
>"My clothing wasn't rugged enough to endure the rigors of life outdoors. It fell to shreds on me the other day, and I have not had time to scavenge or fashion anything new."SHEE6 shrugs.
SHEE6:
>"Verily? Mayhaps you should retrieve an alternate attire from the dresser and wear that."Valari frowns.
Valari:
>"I don't have one."SHEE6:
>"Then your mother should bring you to a clothing-merchant so that more garments can be purchased!"Valari frowns again.
Valari:
>"That is also not an option."
