Following the hedges maze for a while you eventually find yourself in a small clearing with another white table sitting in the center. On the center of the table is another letter.

"Well, in the interests of airing our grievances with one another I feel it's best to communicate in the most honest way possible. Take the four names below and select four or five of the words listed that you feel best describes your thoughts and feelings toward them. Do try to be frank and open, Mother knows when you're lying.

And, of course, don't forget your dear Mother as well."

Um... excuse me... Mother? Are the words 'what we feel about them', 'what we think applies to them', or both?

Okay, so Ruby... gets 'friendship'... because I'm friends with Tavros. And it gets... 'Independence', because they're pretty self-contained... 'dignity' since they're pretty composed... and... 'zest' because that's a funny word...

Mikage... is the one who turns into the fluffy dragon, so... Surprise, since I was surprised at him being a dragon... warmth since he's fluffy and warm... energy in adversity because he's cheerful... curiosity because I still don't know how he eats so much... And silliness because pya.

Thorn... hmm. Thorn gets... bluntness, because he's pretty blunt, and stoicism, because he has that too. ... Good education, I guess... he's probably educated okay. ... Sourness of temper... goes along with being blunt and stoic... and weakness.

[huffs at the table :/]

Because he turns into a cat because he gets too weak when it's sunny. That's why.

And for Mother... I don't think I've done many games with her... um. So... curiosity, because I'm curious what she's really like. Good education, since she's always talking about teaching us stuff... coldness, and mildness, because I'm pretty sure she doesn't like us very much but isn't really extreme about it, and ... dignity, since she always dresses up fancy.
gravitysrainbow: (i see nothing odd about this.)

RUBY: Friendship, Warmth, Independence, Dignity, Zest.
Friendship and warmth are things I feel, and the other three are things I think they have.

JASPER: Uneasiness, Sympathy, Mildness, Tranquility, Zeal.
The first two are things I feel, and the rest are things I think they have as well...

MIKAGE: Surprise, Warmth, Energy in Adversity, Curiosity, Silliness.
Surprise and curiosity are the ones I feel, and he has the rest.

THORN: Bluntness, Stoicism, Good Education, Sourness of Temper, Weakness
These are all things I think he has.

MOTHER: Curiosity, Good Education, Coldness, Mildness, Dignity.
The first one is a thing I feel and the rest are what she has.

Re: [Second Task]

[personal profile] gravitysrainbow 2012-06-13 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
I think so... I wondered why there were colours, but it makes sense, right?

This one kind of matches 'curiosity'...
fishpanties: (What an interesting plaice.)

Re: [Second Task]

[personal profile] fishpanties 2012-06-13 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
Friendship, I think.

[BOUQUET 1??? puts the Canary Grass on 'Perseverance', the yellow one on 'friendship', oak on 'curiosity', cedar on 'warmth', the bellflower on 'bonds']

[BOUQUET 2.... pine goes on 'pity', foxglove sits between 'surprise' and 'coldness', cypress goes on busybody, #5 goes on 'indifference'...
