Sammichbatch AN: My little Ozians! How are we all? We finally have an update from Grumbello (The hiatus was purely her fault - her laptop broke and blah blah, you know the rest! Now she has it back, updates should be a little more regularly since we still have a lot to come!) Thanks for sticking by us through this journey! Sit back, relax, and enjoy my lovely girlfriend's words!
Grumbello AN: Hello my little Munchkin-landers how are you going? I know it's been such a long time but we're getting there :) This is purely my fault...muse disappeared and my girl, Simone, finally said "Right. Enough is enough! Write me a chapter woman" so I did. Pushy girlfriends...what would we do without them ;)
So this chapter is for my missus...Sammichbatch. Love her to pieces. My own personal Elphie.
Enjoy friends
Grumbello

Ok, so I really do deserve a swift smack on the hand for taking so very long to reply to you. Ama Clutch had come down with a form of weird disease that makes her talk to inanimate objects as if they were very much alive. I'm...worried Elphie. She's talking to my dresser as I write.
Oh Elphie NO! My beautiful Elphie, how could you even begin to think I didn't want to talk to you and, as you so lovingly put it, "realised the error of [my] way's and decided not to be friends"? Really? That's the worst thing you've ever said...and I thought you were smart!
The oil you sent was heaven Elphie. I stood in my bath and just slowly poured the oil onto a wash-cloth. At first the oil was slimy and it made me slip a little in the tub but then it started to soothe and calm my skin and I felt like I was bathing under a cool waterfall. I must have stood in that bath for hours just rubbing the oil into my skin slowly. I can't believe that oil was so cleansing when it feels, at first, as though you'd never get it off your skin again. Do you use oils Elphie? Do they make you feel all tingly and amazing as well?
Personally Elphie, I don't understand how the grouchy members of the school board could possibly not enjoy a little smiley face once in a while. I think they make people smile and therefore make people's day so much brighter. Oh...wouldn't it be amazing if we could make the whole world smile by just being the ones to smile first. SMILE Elphie...
:)
Did that make you smile? I hope so...
I think I will ride to your place before the school holiday's are out. It would mean getting to see you in person. Wouldn't that be fun Elphie? I'm sure I'd love to meet the rest of the family too. Are they as gorgeous as you Elphie? Because if they are, I'm going to love them.
Oh...I read that book you suggested, the 'Book of Lies'. It was amazing Elphie. I certainly got lost in the story. I didn't like the bad guys all that much but...well I guess that's the idea right? And imagine if we were like those kids. Left alone, memory erased and then we find out we're prince and princess. Oh what if I was a Princess and my parents aren't really my parents and they had kidnapped me and made me forget who I was? Wouldn't that be amazing?
And terrible I guess...
Never mind...
I'm on to the next book as we speak Elphie.
Oh I couldn't ask you to do that for me Elphie...really. I thank you very much but, you have your own worries to take care of and you study so much for yourself already. Don't worry about me.
I hope to hear from you soon Elphie. I miss you. I am so sorry for being so distant again...hopefully it will never happen again.
Stay safe Elphie.
Toodle-oo
