???: Hey there lil’ guy! It’s me!
Arthur didn’t move, too afraid to respond to an unrecognized voice.
*He sighed and looked at Meemya.*

Meemya looked like he had gone from being unconscious to being asleep. Arthur made a whimpery noise, scared.
*He hugged his knees and rocked back and forth slightly, humming softly.*
Meemya warbled out the word “Mud~”, though the u’s sound was sounded more like /ah/.
