[heirlift]

duh of course i did.

[ Also a sensible question in Folkmore. ]

but sometimes people get trapped in their familiar forms and they should be able to communicate but maybe they're just psyching themselves out thinking they can't...

[festianbargain]

I guess you can just wait to see if it takes a shit in there. That would be a pretty good sign one way or the other.

[heirlift]

you know i don't think it is, actually. there's a few people i wouldn't put it past...

[festianbargain]

Squirrels are good at falling out of trees and not getting hurt, right? What if you dump it out to see if it lands on it's feet.

[heirlift]

and then if it doesn't, i've just thrown some stranger on the ground...

maybe if i give it a ouija board, they can spell out their name. wait but then they might summon a squirrel demon?

argh this is too confusing! we need some kind of universal "help i'm a familiar and i'm stuck like this" sign!!

[festianbargain]

if they're that stuck in squirrel brain, what makes you think they can spell?

[heirlift]

i don't know!!! i'm trying. :(

[festianbargain]

Alright.

[ This is a tough one. ]

What's something a person would do just as a reflex, without even thinking about it, that a squirrel would not do

[heirlift]

uhhhh

apologize when walking past someone in the grocery store?

[festianbargain]

Who does that?

Try tossing a ball at it. A person would probably try to catch it

[heirlift]

i do that? doesn't everyone?

a person would try not to get hit. also how is squirrel going to try to catch a ball with little squirrel hands?

[festianbargain]

I've never apologized to a person in a grocery store in my life

Maybe a battery of tests. I don't think there's one specific thing that will work for everyone

[heirlift]

never? not even if you bumped into them?

maybe i can just keep him with me and ask the fox the next time i see her somewhere. she probably doesn't want someone stuck as a squirrel forever just because they can't figure out how to turn back.

[festianbargain]

No. But I also have never bumped into anybody in a grocery store.

[ It's unclear how often Cassian has actually been in a grocery store. Though he had been banned from some convenience stores in his youth for shoplifting. (He didn't apologize for that, either.) ]

Maybe they want to stay a squirrel forever.

[heirlift]

maybe? but why would you want to? you might get eaten by a hawk, or a cat.

[festianbargain]

Very few responsibilities. Plus I always thought hibernation sounded like fun.

[heirlift]

i think that's bears, not squirrels. i saw squirrels all the time in the winter, back on earth. i never saw any bears.

being a bear might not let you conveniently hitch a ride in someone's backpack, but it'd probably be pretty cool.

[festianbargain]

[ All of these animals look alike to Cassian. ]

But don't they store things for the winter? I thought somebody mentioned that.
