Seven.

[silvestris_mage]

First, I get a Ma that's bound determined to kill me. Then, a Da who's all yells like some sort of town crier.

[Filter from the Drones]

Will I be getting some sort of sibling, to replace the drone, then? I'd like one that's short, with some sort of opposite to killing and loudness. [Her sarcasm is evident.]I saw the news, with the fire. I ran out

[weaponsparked]

... Hold on. What do you mean "be getting a new sibling"?

[silvestris_mage]

Well, there's a drone boy here. Who insists he's my real brother, but I've never had a brother in my life.

[weaponsparked]

That makes two of us.

... So real people replace the drones?

[silvestris_mage]

Apparently so. Though how, I don't know.

[ooc: I JUST FOUND THIS I'M SO SORRY. ;; Feel free to ignore it.]

[mysilenceknot]

Your mother is trying to kill you?

[silvestris_mage]

Well, she did. And then told me that eventually she'd kill me if I stopped providing information.

So, I would suppose she hasn't changed her mind.

[mysilenceknot]

Oh my Lord, that's...horrible.

[He seems at a loss for words.]

[silvestris_mage]

I'll be all right, though. I get out of the house a lot.

[a pause, as if she thinks of something to say.]

Mr. Snicket, I have a question.

[miss_enma_ai]

Why is your mother trying to kill you?

[silvestris_mage]

I have no idea. She just seems to enjoy threatening me.

[miss_enma_ai]

What a cruel person.

[silvestris_mage]

I don't think she's horribly cruel. We can't really escape our natures.

Perhaps wanting to kill is her nature.

[bustydefense]

You'll probably get a sibling eventually.

[silvestris_mage]

I figured so. Since I received a Da, and a Ma. It's only natural that they'd replace the only drone left, as well.

[bustydefense]

What's wrong with your mother?

[silvestris_mage]

Oh, she just seems to want to blame me for bringing all of us here. Though she's only really threatened me seriously once or twice.

[ilmeganekko]

Ah... I didn't think about the animals. I was happy that the Hall was on fire, because it could mean that the people who did this to us are dead, and maybe that we could get home. I didn't think anyone would get hurt.

Though... are there animals here? I've seen some, but they're not from here like us; they'd stay away from the fire.

[silvestris_mage]

I've seen some birds, and mice and cats and dogs...besides Mogget and animals like that, of course. But I would assume that they would act the same.

After all, they're only animals. They don't mess things up like us humans.

[ilmeganekko]

Mogget?

And what do you mean by that?

[silvestris_mage]

Oh! Mogget. The cat. Though he's not really a cat, but some sort of strange immortal. He won't let me know what he really is, though.
