That’s great Ella! What plans do you have? We should throw a big big party, I’m sure that will liven up this place a lot.
I have nothing planned. I’ll probably just stay in my room. No one probably even cares anyway with the way they ignore me around here…

-gives a timid smile back;
Hello there, Ella. It’s nice to meet you as well. And if I may be so bold. You have a wondrous smile. -let’s out a soft bashful laugh;
*blushes terribly* Oh, why… thank you. You have… nice curly hair. *laughs quietly, then looks down at her feet, the blush still largely covering her face*
Hello everyone, my name is Pumbaa and I’m not entirely sure how I feel about being here.
O-oh, hello. I’m… Ella. It’s nice to meet you. *gives him a shy smile*
Oh, I had no idea. I’m so sorry.
What, so…they hardly fed you? That’s horrible! And cruel and…and… -she’s slightly lost for words- I can’t believe someone would do that.
Sort of. Well, I lived in the ocean. I was a mermaid before I got these. -points to her legs-
No, no, it’s fine. Don’t worry. I… yes, they were cruel. But I survived. There are a lot of cruel people out in the world. Some people are just lucky enough not to experience it. I’m not, unfortunately.
You were a mermaid? Oh, goodness! It must be so weird for you to be here instead of there!

Someone who understands! Yes, you are spot on about that! I appreciate it very much. I’m lovely, today. I suppose a bit of sadness has overcome me, but other than that, peachy. Yes, I just arrived. Well…I have yet to organize my things…and I have to go about a new routine so I’m slightly unsettled…
I seem to be rather good at understanding things. *grins, then nods* Yes, of course you’ll be sad. Going from somewhere you knew to this place, it can be very scary. But once you get used to it, it’ll be fine. I’m sure you’ll adjust quickly. *smiles*
A few days without any food at all? Oh gosh! I can’t imagine that’s good for you…
Daddy would never let me go play with my sisters until I’d eaten everything on my plate. He said that food was one of the most important things in the ocean.
I… well, I never had enough food to eat in the first place. It’s why I’m so skinny, I suppose. *motions down to her body, a small laugh escaping her lips* I’d get like a few crackers a day, maybe. The other food went to my step-family. And I couldn’t really sneak it out, because my step-mother took charge of the food. She’d know when it’d go missing. Oh, why am I telling you this? Nevermind, forget I said anything.
The ocean? You lived near the ocean? Like Kida?

Oh, hello Ella, it’s a pleasure. Yes, yes that is very true. It’s just very bothersome if a person reorganizes my books or something of the sorts! Thank you, I appreciate it. How are you today?
Yes, especially when you have something in the way you want it and then someone messes it up. It’s not fun having to go and rearrange those items back into the way you had them before. You’re very welcome. Oh, I’m doing fine. Not as good as I can be but not as bad as I’ve been before. How about you? You’re new, am I right? How are you liking things so far?
