[This video begins with a shot of Pinoko's tidy, rather cutesy apartment... with post-it notes tacked onto everything imaginable. The window sports one saying "PINOKO'S WINDOW," there are separate notes on the lampshade "PINOKO'S LIGHTHAT" and the pole "PINOKO'S LIGHTSTICKTHING," notes on all the books "PINOKO'S BOOK," "PINOKO'S OTHER BOOK," "PINOKO'S (overdue, so~rry! ♥;;) LIBRARY BOOK," notes on the walls "PINOKO'S FAVOURITE SPOT ON THE WALL," "PINOKO'S OTHER SPOT ON THE WALL," "PINOKO'S COOKING OIL SPLATTER ON THE WALL"...

Even poor Prince, her pet dragon, walks by wearing several different post-it notes with some falling off as he walks. The noise of all the rustling paper is even louder than the clattering of his claws, which is kind of impressive.

When Pinoko comes into view, she's wearing a rather scary grin.] Mished a shpot!

[She starts scribbling furiously on a note, which she then covers the camera with.] Pinoko's camcorder-phone!

[Be aware, City. Wherever you might run into her out and about, Pinoko will be carrying huge stacks of post-it notes and a permanent ink marker!]

Comments

[ ha, it's cool. ]

[lawbender]

[ Married? Lin may look a bit doubtful. ]

How do you avoid the ticking, then?

[ Must be a curse. At least, Lin hopes. ]

[pinokosthewife]

Prinche!

Pinoko's pet dragon. He's not much of a talker, but he's a very good lishtener!

[lawbender]

Ah, so you kept yours, then. Strange pet, I thought.

[pinokosthewife]

He's sho friendly, though!

The only problem is that he eats everything! Pinoko can't put food in a plate without him to eat the plate too unlesh she feeds him.

[lawbender]

That would be a problem. He doesn't eat your furniture, does he?

[pinokosthewife]

Nuh-uh, he jusht really, really likesh shteel! I just have to keep all the potsh and pans out of reach! A lot of the shilverware too. [She holds her cheek, looking up thoughtfully.]

He really is a little handful shometimes!

[lawbender]

That's interesting. [ She is being genuine, actually. If it has to do with dirt or metal, it's easy to catch Lin's interest. ] Does he burn it? I'm told they usually have some kind of fire abilities.

[pinokosthewife]

Burn it? No, I don't think sho, Pinoko's only ever sheen him eat the shtuff.

[In the background, while Pinoko's talking, it seems that Prince has managed to sneak away from the kitchen with a steel spoon, happily wagging his tail from side to side like a dog.

He stops off to the side of the screen, tosses the spoon up in the air and blasts it with fire. The blast is enough to keep the spoon afloat and melt it down into a glowing red, putty-like consistency, before he catches it in his mouth and swallows it up.]

... Pinoko doesn't think he's the firebreathing type! [Completely obliviously.]

[lawbender]

[ Lin observes this. That's some heat, to melt steel. ] You do have a fire extinguishing device, I hope? [ Her eyes are on the dragon. ] Just in case.

[pinokosthewife]

[Pinoko wonders what Lin is looking at and turns to see Prince after he's already consumed the spoon. After a moment of confused staring, she looks back at the communicator.] Um, no, not really... but, there's a common fire extinguisher in the hallway!

Pinoko can always get another one for the apartment too!
