warm front

[cumulonimbus]

After Mathilde has left (and Stormy has her schedule for the next few days all written down), Stormy goes aprowl through the house again to make sure she's clear on the layout and see if anybody else wants to talk to her while she is still novel.

Comments

"She's not sure if it's her ears being better or just paying better attention."

[allthebrightest]

"I think it's probably both."

[cumulonimbus]

"Yeah, maybe, but there's no good way to test for sure, you'd need a bigger quieter space than there is anywhere."

[allthebrightest]

"Yeah, something like that."

[cumulonimbus]

"Maybe on the ocean on a very calm day, but that would be a lot of trouble to go to just to find out something like that."

[allthebrightest]

"Yeah. And ships make all kinds of noise, anyway. They creak and stuff."

[cumulonimbus]

"Is that very loud? I've never been on one."

[allthebrightest]

"It's not really loud, but it's noise. I think it might be quieter in a really big field with only quiet kinds of bugs and birds, if you could find one of those."

[cumulonimbus]

"I don't know where one of those is. Oh well."

Niva shrugs.
