Ducktape and glue

Andy giggles at Mercury’s explanation of Zeph and her eyes grow bigger at the fact that Artorias adopted a huge bird as his son. Mouth rounds as a soft, “Whoa” spills out. At his question about her family tree, the pup shrugs and admits, “I didn’t even know we have a family tree. Oh! Maybe Zeph likes to hide in his family tree and that is why I haven’t seen him!” She imagines a huge tree claimed by a family and all the members visiting and taking care of it. That is what a family tree is or at least, that is what she thinks it is.

After he calls her Star-bird, Andy rushes back into the room to right the bed… all by herself. Mercury calls to her and she turns, grinning happily at him as he joins her. Together they get it upright and into the corner and her tail wags with joy. For right now, all she think about is the happiness that these simple tasks are giving her. She has a purpose and is moving which keeps her mind turned away from the gloomy thoughts that usually tug at her.

A nod is given to Mercury as she turns and begins to walking around the room again. She finds a few small pieces of chipped wall to take out into the hall. Once her sweep is done, she looks to Mercury and says, “All clear!” Andy is ready to find something to hang on the wall.
