📍 Astral Express Parlor Car

Did you want something?

Pom-Pom

...Hey, {NICKNAME}. Pom-Pom's got something to ask you.

Pom-Pom

Ahem, it's related to this Express' carriage service. It's uh, a survey. Don't think too much about it!

Options

Go ahead.

I promise not to think too much!

Pom-Pom

Do you think the carriage is very clean? Pom-Pom's been feeling lately like something isn't quite right...

Pom-Pom

No matter how much Pom-Pom sweeps, there's always this weird fluff coming out of one corner. What's that about?

Pom-Pom

{NICKNAME}, could you please take a look around the carriage and see if Pom-Pom's going crazy or not!

Find the suspicious fur

Investigate

System

There're a few tufts of soft hair tucked into the corners of the couch. Its color — is a dead match for Pom-Pom's.

Tell Pom-Pom what you found

It's all coming together now.

Pom-Pom

How about it? What'd you find?

Options

I found some tufts of hair on the couch...

Pom-Pom

So Pom-Pom's not going crazy! There're no small animals on the Express however, and this carriage isn't covered in woolen carpet. How could this be, then...

Options

Aren't you in fact a "small animal"...?

Judging by the color, they belong to you.

Strange, there're no small animals aboard the Express.

Pom-Pom

Whoa there! I'm Pom-Pom, and Pom-Pom is the conductor — not some "small animal"!

Pom-Pom

Color — color is just a coincidence!

Pom-Pom

...Well... Bu-but... No, there aren't any.

Pom-Pom

How could it be me! There hasn't been any change of season recently, and Pom-Pom's been keeping a healthy schedule so that this doesn't happen!

Pom-Pom

But... well, forget it. Pom-Pom's going to be doing a lot more cleaning. {NICKNAME}, please pretend this never happened...
