Action:

[No no no no no no. No. That's not her mom. That's not her mom, and this isn't the airport, and it's another nightmare, it has to be. What else could it be? It's a dream and it's not her dream and that means she's trapped.]

[Anybody in New Bark will likely catch the sight of a little girl slowly backing away from the house she'd woken up in with wide eyes before breaking into a run and coming to a stop next to some trees to dig through her backpack. Except it's not her own backpack. And the things inside aren't what she wants or needs them to be.]

[Which is a big stressor to a kid who has no idea what to do.]

Audio, later:

Hello? Mr- Parkman? I didn't do anything, I promise.

[Spoken with the urgency of children who want to prove themselves innocent everywhere.]

Please let me out.

_{[It's also a total possibility to someone who has been stuck in someone else's dream once. Molly's still not entirely sure this isn't the case. Someone could have trapped all of them.]}

Everyone seems pretty happy. But it's still not right that we're here when we didn't ask to be.

_{[More just ... idly going over that now, but she's getting used to the idea and bouncing back from the earlier confusion and near-panic.]}

Don't you think people are worried about you?

You're right, it's not really fair! But I didn't ask to be brought to the Digital World either, so I guess I'm kind of used to it, eheh! [ At this point she just sort of goes along with these things. ]

Oh! I don't think they are worried about me, because Jakuzure-san told me time stops back home while we're here! So when I go home, I'll go back to the same time that I left! I think that's how it works, anyway!

_{[Molly frowns, thinking about this. Someone else already said that, but if everyone's agreeing on it, that just makes it even more important.]}

But it's so weird.

I don't get why someone would do any of this.

I don't know why they'd do it either! Oh, but Jakuzure-san also said maybe we were brought here to meet a special someone! Isn't that romantic! What if I find a boy here to fall in love with? Oh, or a girl, I guess! It would be easier if there were more kids here, though!

_{[... huh]}

... I guess.

I don't know, boys are weird.

Boys are weird. [ Giggle. ] But you've got to fall in love with someone, right?

[ What do you mean that's not everyone's ultimate life goal. ]

Well ... sure.

_{[She'll concede, for now???]}

Are you in love with someone?

Not yet! That's why I want to meet the right person! And maybe I'll meet them here!

[ A pause while she considers. ]

I do know a bunch of boys back home who are in love with me, though! Do you have anyone you like, Molly-chan?

[ THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO ASCERTAIN RIGHT NOW CLEARLY ]

No ... not really. A boy tried to kiss me in school, though.

_{[Which hadn't been that bad, but she'd still laughed and shoved him off her.]}

Do you really have a lot of them who are in love with you?
