Since Fossil had pulled you out of bed, she's been ranting about her findings all morning. Fossil sank into her 'think tank', floating around with a recorder in her clawed hand. She said that she needed you to hear this while she had it in her head- you couldn't have just listened to the recording later? But whatever.

"Entry eight. Strange weather. It is currently vinter. But it's... Too cold." She started. You had to really focus to listen, considering she was floating above water in her tank, and you were just sitting in an office chair, scanning over notes she had to follow along.

Wrapped in a towel and STILL talking, Fossil gestured for you to follow her. "Zhe ectopic growths on assimilated objects... huff... may be an unintended result of meddling vith animal DNA." She turned up the temperature via thermostat, and proceeded to make her way to her makeshift room- which was really Carrot's.

She took off her goggles and placed them on the bed beside the towel. "In zhe process of passing zhe barrier, zhe internals may get displaced..." She continued, picking up a sparkly black box with red ribbon and a puffy bow. There was a tag with her name, Era, on it... and a heart beside her name.

"And ve have no way of knowing if zhe warping of zhese structures is due to passing zhe rift, zheir lack of use over generations, or parasitic stimulation." She finished, clicking off the recorder and tossed it on to the bed. She moved her attention to the box.

She read the note that came inside, unamused. She handed it to you, seeing your curiosity. "Might as vell try it on." She shrugged, proceeding to pull out the outfit and pulled it on.

It was a leopard print fur coat- all big and bushy. It came with a shirt and heeled boots. She put the boots on and sighed, walking over to the mirror. Let's see how it looks-

"Feh... at least it's not made of his socks." She hummed, referring to the outfit Painkiller took with them for warmth on their little adventure.
