Hee hee hee...
Hello again!
Look, original lady that Jasmine came from!
I don't know
if I ever got your name, but
I got a real account this time!!
Poe just reminded me it exists!
He's been
holding out on me!

It's me! Wist!
Yeah!!

Nice to meet you all again,
but
it would be even nicer
if someone could come let me out of my designated living box??
I'm starting to get hungry...
And besides that,
it's really hard to watch over kids
when I'm stuck in here!

[panpiping]

Yeah!
Plus I guess even though
you humans have two whole lungs,
you can't choke for long and survive!
Wild!!
I'm learning so much already!

Oh, but
Poe takes care of me,
and I take care of Poe,
and
I know how to open a door!
I can't!

[Ay, dios mío...]

Our lungs are connected, Wist. They are functionally a single capacity. But we have two so that if one is damaged or ill, there is another that can perform the same function with half the efficiency. If we only had one lung, then we would run out of air even faster.

But more importantly, I hope all of this choking talk has been hypothetical? And no one is presently choking?

[panpiping]

Yeah!
I think!!
...
Maybe to be sure,
you should explain what hypothetical means?
Under...theory?
Something less than a theory?

[no_dejare_de_quererte]

Close. Hypothetical means in theory.

Meaning, you are speaking about the possibility of someone choking, and not someone that has been or is presently choking.

[panpiping]

Then yes!
As far as I know,
it's definitely hypothetical.
But given the expansion of human population,
someone probably is choking somewhere!

Someone asked me what I would do
if I couldn't open a door.
It was a very good question!

[no_dejare_de_quererte]

[Oh thank heavens... Though the addendum isn't all that comforting.]

And how did you answer?

[panpiping]

I said
that I'll have to get permission to enter from them
before they ever choke in the first place!
It's the only way.

[no_dejare_de_quererte]

[That...does not sound like a good plan to her. But she's at least starting to catch on that this is an issue of permission... so probably some weird fae thing.]

As an RA, wouldn't you have permission from the academy to enter a student's room in the case of an emergency? Or does the occupant of the room have to give you permission?

[panpiping]

Ummm
If I had
some sort of Claim to the area
that might be enough...
I don't though!
Or I wouldn't be stuck.
As long as someone permits me at the door
and doesn't rescind the invite
it should be fine?

[no_dejare_de_quererte]

[That does not sound all that fine to her...]

I would get in contact with the other RAs in your dorm. If there is an emergency that you do not have the permission to access, they should be aware that they may need to help you.

[panpiping]

Okay! I'll try!
I think that if someone with sufficient authority
is able to give me a tour and permission to
all the doors I need to open
...
That might be ideal!

But gee...
Doors sure are complicated.
Wouldn't it be better
if they were all just removed?
