Thank you, do you have some pare clothes as well? I think I might hold off on the scientist clothes for awhile.

*looks at the ground then at you*
noodles. Like ramen noodles.

@Extra

Sure thing. I'll set this door to take you to the guest restroom with the shower, and have someone drop some clothes in for you. I'll also get some good noodles going.

... Also some ramen, in case you dislike the kind I like. Luckily we have a few high quality ramen in the house. But no rush, take as long as you need.

*Starts to pull my head back but stops*

Also, what style of clothing do you want?

Well, crying myself to sleep helped. So surprisingly well.

@Extra

*Nods*

Understandable. Well, you have a few options for the immediate future. But while you decide on them, you're welcome to borrow the guest shower, don't ask me why it's not attached to this room, I don't remember why.

Also, what's your favorite few foods? If we have access to it, we can give you some when you're cleaned up.

*turns around*
Come in, you are good.

@Extra

*Opens the door slowly and sticks my head through when the gap is large enough*

How did you sleep?

Myriad Reality

*I shift in the bed as I stir awake, rubbing my eyes and I sit up slowly, looking around*

@Extra

*Knocks on the door three times*

The hard part is knowing where they should be.

@Meta

I suppose so.

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

What if I'm not meeting my own standards?

@Meta

That is the one sign that you aren't doing as well as you should. But at the same time, you should be forgiving of yourself for it. Just strive to do better each day until you do meet them.

I feel like she would be just as happy if the bear would fish or the wolf would howl...

@Meta

I don't know about that. Ultimately, the only person you need to prove yourself to is you. Everyone else has their own standards for you, and trying to meet all of them is impossible.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

Hmmm... I feel like she holds everyone to the same standard as herself...

@Meta

Yes, but she's also asking a bear to fly, just because she's a hawk.

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

But how do I know if it's my best? I'm not very good at most things. Even helping today, I could barely keep up.

@Meta

You know because you're doing it. Holding yourself to standards you wouldn't hold others to isn't good. If you would be pro7d of Stella, if your roles were reversed, then you should be proud of yourself.

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

How am I ever supposed to know, then?

@Meta

You don't need to be comparing yourself in the first place. You just need to do your best, that's more than enough.
