Birdie leans over Piosenniel's shoulder as she reads the note from C.7.A. "Alright! She's in!" exclaims Birdie.
"Now wait just a minute", fumes Chile', "That's not what that note said!"
"But it's Contrary Day, Sharon! 'No' means 'yes', red means green, 'don't walk' means 'run like heck', AND..." Birdie beams, 'I am now a semi-respectable dweller in the Barrow-downs' means 'Up against the wall, Mithadan!!!'
Birdie watches as C.7.A sputters and rolls her eyes. "Well, if you didn't want it to be Contrary Day, you should have called it first." states Birdie huffily.
"Come to think of it, though", says Piosenniel, the REG seems to be not working on anyone but us, lately."
The three look around the party; people are primly bagging trash. Not a good sign. Some fan girls are chasing Legolas around the the fields, but that's nothing new. Samwise and family are standing in a corner, looking like they'd rather be planting taters then wasting their time here. Birdie's Essence of Entdraught seems to have no effect except to give people the spins. Even the dragons look a little forlorn.
"But what's wrong with the REG?" thinks Birdland. Then she sees a giant pink rabbit strolling by. Well, that's a start.
