[Ilia hangs on for dear life, not exactly accustomed to riding on the back of a squirrel. Too bad she doesn't talk to her family, because this would have been the subject of a very interesting phone call.]

How'd you manage to wrangle one of these anyway?

[mincingminuet]

How?

[Laughing as they go!!!!!]

With a rope, food, and patience. Also, I mean, I feed the ones that live outside my apartment. They're not afraid of me or anything.

I didn't even know squirrels were tame-able. Like, they look at you with those little beady eyes of theirs and you know they're plotting humanity's downfall. Like cats, but smaller and far less cute.

[mincingminuet]

Any animal can be tamed, or at least made amenable, with patience.

[mincingminuet]

[It's a little more challenging somehow, navigating the place when the world is suddenly so much larger. She has to think for a moment before she points.]

That way. About eight blocks down.
