[Oh, damn, you can almost hear Clover breathing into the receiver.] Mother of shit.

I just looked at the goddamn calendar.

[Whatever this is about, it must be serious. She sounds absolutely mindblown.]






My birthday was last motherfuckin' week.

Thanks a bunch, Mayfield! Lovin' my time here, ya know?! God, fuck this town.

You forgot about it?

[noluckduck]

Eh, it's more like... it went by without me noticin', y'know?

[hairflyingheartpounding]

Well, I didn't think you actually forgot... Although I wouldn't be surprised if that was something that happened here, after some of the things I've been through.

I'm really sorry you missed out on it, anyway. A lot has been happening here lately...

I could bake you a cake if you want.

[noluckduck]

... Do I know ya?

[Don't take it wrong, Rapunzel. Clover just finds overly friendly strangers weird.

Well, she finds a whole lot of strangers weird, but.]

[hairflyingheartpounding]

Oh. Um. I don't think so?

[WELP now she feels silly.]

I just... I like helping people be happy here. I'm... I'm pretty happy here, most of the time, and we're stuck here, so it just... Seems like the right thing to do.

Plus, I love baking.

[noluckduck]

Well, that's pretty damn nice of ya.

[hairflyingheartpounding]

[Nervous chuckling.] Well, I try...

[noluckduck]

So who are ya?
