[And she's just waiting in the bushes, ready go on in that same window the second the coast is clear.]

[Yeah, it would probably be easier for Lobelia to use that window if Coquelicot wasn't just... glancing furtively back at the house, looking like she isn't quite sure what to do next.]

[c'mooonnnn beat it! Lobelia's patience is dwindling rapidly and she's getting jittery, causing rustling in the bushes!]

[After a moment of thought, Coquelicot bucks up her resolve and just about makes up her mind anWHAT WAS THAT SOUND]

[... she pads over to investigate the bushes, looking more curious than afraid.]

[Great, caught by a toddler. And it's not hard at all to see her up close! Lobelia's the worst thief in training ever.]

Hey, beat it! I'm...uh...busy lookin' for something!

[Coquelicot just peers at Lobelia for a moment, her surprise fading quickly.]

... really?

Y-yeah, really! Are you callin' me a liar or something?

[She shakes her head, eying Lobelia warily. She gathers up her courage.]

[Hey, maybe if she cracked one of the lenses Coquelicot nods.]

Okay! I can do that... I don't have anywhere else to go, anyway.

[She pauses, gathering up her courage again.]

I-If I help you do that...

[Her voice becomes smaller.]

C-Could you tell me where I am? Please?

[blink blink]

...Wait, that isn't your house either? Does anyone in this town know where they are?

[And she misses Lobelia's second statement because the first question causes her to shrink back a bit out of fear.] N-No, I was just- I was sleeping on a bench and then I was in this house when I woke up- I-I don't want to get in trouble...!

[god little kids and their drama. Why can't they be all grown up like Lobelia is?]

Stop whining! You're not gonna get in trouble. Nobody knows where they are or why. At least no one I've met so far.

[She flinches a bit at that- but shuts up immediately, quickly wiping her eyes.] ... 'm sorry.

N-No one knows what's happening...?
