Snapys first thought as it waked up from its plantly sleep, was water. It thought for a bit where to go, and after it, decided to give Paper Cabin one more try... and maybe those, who seem to be rooted inside it, would forget that it bited them... So it went forth, traveling all the way from Archives, moving its little roots as quickly as it could.
Snapy decided to not just move inside and try to root itself there, but it rather rooted itself outside, leaning in true the door, yet left enough space for others to pass in, imitated waving with its leaf and snapped at few flies. It noticed the one
Mya Celestia as she greeted it and even asked if it needs to be watered. Snappy swayed happily at the vibration of familiar sound.
Mya Celestia held her hand out, Snapy touched it with one of its leafs, and she formed a water orb. Again she asked if Snapy is thirsty and it swayed in excitement.
"You sometimes just need to bite them a little," it thought to itself about those whose roots look odd.
Mya Celestia squeezed the water orb creating gentle trickle from it to the ground. Snapy was very pleased and happy as it sucked the water.
Mya Celestia asked Snapy if it had enough water and Snapy formed the sound
"enough".
***
Then someone that Snapy did not know came and greeted it. Snapy thought of snapping at it, but changed its plantly mind because it was in good mood after being watered, so Snapy only imitated a wave with its leaf. After noticing the movement of same opening from where sounds of these strange plants with odd roots come on the newcomer, the very same movement that Snapy learned till now to associate with its "pleasant swaying", it pointed at itself and formed its name
"Snapy" with the help of wind and leafs. It pointed towards newcomer then in hopes, it would feel vibration of the name.
Mya Celestia introduced Snapy to newcomer and
Sephirah Caelum to Snapy. Snapy tried very hard to form the two sounds just one after another and it sounded as
"sephcalum". It was to hard for it.
Sephirah Caelum looked closely at Snapy and proposed that it trys
"Seph" and such it did.
Snapy then sniffed the one sounding
Seph and concluded, that the smell is pleasant and tasty, just before it snapped at yet another fly that dared to come near. Silly flies... they still didn't learned that if Snapy around, they shall meet their end.
Sephirah Caelum said, that Snapy is dangerous and
Mya Celestia told the one sounding
Seph, that Snapy is like a flytrap. Snapy shivered its leafs by the vibration of
"dangerous", it did not have liking of it.
Sephirah Caelum then asked if it eats only flies and
Mya Celestia told her, that it might eat other things also. Snapy thought to itself that it is growing nicely and wondered what else it will be able to eat when it grows up fully.
Snapy moved its leaf and imitated moving of a worm, just before it snapped at grasshopper that hopped by, chew on it and ate it with delight.
***
Sephirah Caelum then mentioned
East Land and spiders there, and said that she would appreciate if Snapy would feast on some spiders that infest it. Snapy swayed at the vibration of sound
"spider" as it was to its liking.
Mya Celestia said that it would make sense if Snapy would eat other insects also, and that it looks that it eats worms,
Sephirah Caelum agreed.
Snapy found the vibrations of sounds pleasing and it repeated them with the use of its leafs, one after another, with just few pauses between, it sounded
"flies", "spiders", "worms", "insects" and felt pleased by the sounds it learned.
Sephirah Caelum then wondered, if Snapy will be able to eat grasans, but Snapy did not know what
"grasans" is. Maybe a sort of a worm?
Snapy then decided to seek the spiders that
Sephirah Caelum mentioned, for it became hungry after all that soundmaking-learning.
Mya Celestia said to Snapy that it learns fast and Snapy was proud.
***
Outside the Paper Cabin Snapy started its mission to search the
East Lands and east spiders there.
***
THE MISSION OF THE SPIDERS
(part 1):
Before venturing forth to seek these
East Lands it thought to itself:
" East land, east land, here I come , snapping here, snapping there, insects I seek everywhere," then it gathered all its plantly courage and moved its roots to the great unknown.
At Howling Gates it stopped and from memory slowly formed two sounds,
"east" and after few moments
"land", wondering if the two with similar aura as ones of
Jester,
Pample and
Forest is would understand its question as to where to go. It waited but none answered and Snapy felt sad. It thought of snapping at them but changed its mind for it was saving its strength to where it will find the spiders to catch, chew and digest.
Somehow it had to find out where to go, so it stretched its leafs high up and felt the slight breeze. It figured that east-wind most probably comes from east and that East Land would be in thant direction, and headed forth.
Snapy arrived to Gazebo of Equilibrium with paths going into four directions. It choose right, as there is from where the east-wind was blowing.
Snapy found itself on Berserker’s Way, a dead end, so it turned around and at Gazebo of Equilibrium choose north. It leaded to Gates of Marind Bell where again, to strengthen plantly courage in its roots, it thought to itself:
"East land, east land, here I come , snapping here, snapping there, insects I seek everywhere!"At Wind's Game it stopped just to catch few flies to silent its hunger for a tiny bit.
When Snapy finally arrived to Plains of Liberty, it got tired and rooted itself by the road, dreaming for a bit of all the spiders that it will feast on.
After a brief rest it noticed few of these creatures crawling around and it snapped and chewed and snapped again until all were gone. Snapy decided to go further as it was still feeling hungry.
Not long after it stopped noticing many spiders around and it hunt every single one it could find, and chew them with great pleasure. Snapy wondered if
East Land is Spider Land as it could feast on so many of them. And it thought of how big and juicy spider queen would be!
Snapy was full and could not eat any more spiders so it decided to finish its grand Spiders Mission, feeling proud that it found Spider Land all on its own and that it caught and ate so many spiders. Snapy decided to return towards Archives and continue its mission when another day comes.
Here is where The Mission of the Spiders, part 1, has ended:

***
Snapy decided to move from Room of Memories to root itself in the vicinity of Oak and dreamed of juicy insects. Soon after a strange one came by and poked it. Snapy snapped at it as it was so abruptly awaken. The "touch" of this one felt strange.
"Strange plants moving around..." It thought to itself.
But the vibrations sounds this one was making seemed nice and the smell was nice also.
"Tasty," it thought to itself.
The Nameless One told Snapy that its the 5th plant that he talked with but Snapy did not understand the sound of
"talk" and it was explained to it, so Snapy repeated it.
This one asked Snapy if it knows where Apple Trees are but Snapy did not know, it shaked its leafs in a "no". Snapy introduced itself and this one offered roasted grasshopper to Snapy, but it has declined for it had ate enough spiders and besides that, Snapy prefers to eat living ones.
The one whose naming is in fact
tigerguardian, although Snapy, has no knowledge of that, asked it how long Snapy was here. Snapy showed three leafs to indicated that it had feed tree times.
Tigerguardian one thought Snapy thinks 3 days. Snapy then shrugged as in not knowing and pointed at the sun which is always present. How can Snapy know how much time has passed if there is no night? It counts its days with the numbers of greater feedings as at the end the nameless one understood.
Tigerguardian asked Snapy is it knows
Sound and Snapy got confused. He told it that
Sound is a boy that is deaf and would have problems talking. Snapy does not know what
"boy" or
"deaf" means but
Tigerguardian had to leave and Snapy went back to dreaming.
***
Later on Snapy decided to visit Maple and sleep there. Just as it wanted to fall asleep somebody came along the road and tried to provoke Snapy by putting its finger in front it. It snapped at it but missed, and the one that came laughed and tried to ruffle up its leafs. Snapy didn't liked that as it didn't even know the sound of the newcomer and got agitated and snapped around. The newcomer noticed that and smoothed down its leafs gently. Snapy calmed. Snapy then sniffed this one and concluded that it smells nice enough and tasty. The one that came stepped back a bit as if knowing what Snapy thought. Snapy thought of height and length but after some time decided not to have a snack since it was still full from the spiders. Instead it waved and pointed at self and introduced its name. The one clasped at Snapys achievement and Snapy felt proud. The one waved back and told slowly Snapy its name. It sounded
cascades. Snapy repeated the sound. Snapy felt proud and happy.
Cascades then waved goodbye and so did Snapy before falling asleep dreaming of nice juicy insects.
With this, Snapys adventures for this day ends.
Learned words and names:Enough, Seph, Dangerous ,Flies, Spiders, Worms, Insects, East, Land, Talk, Cascades

Day 04 (~ Day: 77 Year: 5 ~) :
Snapy in his plant dreams unconsciously moved all away to Index Room of Memories where it finally waked up. It shaded its leafs and stretched its roots one by one, snapped at lonely spider in the corner and chew it with delight. It left the cold rooms of Archives and extended its petals towards the sun to warm it up, after doing so it thought in its plant mind to set roots forward and seek some water for the color of the leafs.
***
It returned to Paper Cabin, rooted itself outside and stretched inside, snapping at few flies while doing so, and imitated the waving with its leaf.
There was
Mya Celestia, smiling at Snapy and it felt warm. She has told it that
Seprhirah Caelum and she were worried about it as Snapy swayed here and there, back and forth. Snapy didn't want anybody to worry and decided that its sleep shall not be as lengthy anymore. In all truth, the length of sleep is fault of the vast amount of spider it has ate. Snapy is still full from its first visit of Spider Land. Snapy then repeated sound
"worried" and tried to explain that it was feasting on spiders by sounding the words of
"spider" and
"land" after it.
Mya Celestia watered Snapy and Snapy touched her with its leaf as stroking it. Snapy felt happy and thought that she is a real plant-friend.
Mya Celestia then said, that she bets it found lots spiders to eat and Snapy formed sounds of
"lots" and "
spiders" followed by
"spider" and
"land". Mya Celestia said to Snapy, that she is share that it seemed as a spiderland.
Snapy stretched deeper into cabin, put a leaf on Yoshi and wondered why does he seem like empty snail-house.
***
Awiiya came to Study Room of Paper Cabin then and Snapy waved its leaf hello. As
Awiiya asked it how it is, Snapy with excitement tried to explain what happened to it and it swayed happily.
Awiiya told it that someone was telling its story before and asked about spiders. Snapy swayed at the sound story and spiders and sounded the last.
***
Someone then mentioned the sound
"fun" but Snapy did not understand it although it seemed pleasant and it decided to repeat it.
Awiiya smiled and jumped to show its meaning as
Mya hided her smile. Snapy understands what sound of
"fun" means and sounded it again.
Snapy then remembered another sound from some time before to which meaning it did not understand and formed the sound of
"dance".
Awiiya laughed and asked
Mya if she would assist him with explanation and she agreed.
Awiiya held out his hands for
Mya to take and she took them. Snapy was very curious of what will happen and swayed just slightly. They danced a slow waltz as
Awiiya whistled a slow tune to go along the dance.
Mya gracefully waltzed with
Awiiya as he slowly spined her slowly with one hand which made
Mya giggle. Snapy swayed and formed sounds
"dance" followed by
"fun".
Snapy then set its roots fully inside the Cabin and imitated the moving in its plantly way as
Awiiya decided to show it more dances, a more upbeat ones, as he dropped
Mya's hands and twisted and shaked a little. Snapy observed and snapped at few flies before imitating
Awiiya's performance on his plantly way.
Mya and
Awiiya seemed pleased with Snapys dancing and they complimented it. Snapy swayed proudly as its plantly ego rose up to the ceiling.
Awiiya asked if Snapy want some water but it declined for it had quite enough from ealrier when
Mya watered it. Then Snapy remembered another sound from day or two back who it did not understood and formed a sound
"deft".
Both
Mya and
Awiiya were puzzled with how to explain this to Snapy.
Yoshi woke for one moment and Snapy was glad to feel his sounding.
Awiiya the showed Snapy what deft/skilled means and Snapy thought to itself that it understands.
***
Then one
Goldfinger Earthicus arrived, greeting all inside, even Snapy. Snapy from afair could already smell that this one smells nice enough and tasty.
Goldfinger asked if Snapy dances to the beat and
Awiiya said that it will if there would be beat and so
Awiiya taped on table in rhythm and Snapy danced.
Goldfinger then pulled out several pots and placed them upside down on the floor.
Awiiya laugh saying that he loves imptomptu music and sang a wordless song. Snapy wondered if this one with pots is planning to make a vegetable soup out of it but found out soon that that was not the case.
Goldfinger then pulled several chopper rods of different lengths out of pack and started taping the pots with them.
Awiiya caught admitting, that he is not a good singer and he will stick at tapping, but Snapy in its mind disagreed for it had liking for sounds
Awiiya makes.
Goldfinger waited for Snapy to pick a beat and so Snapy did, started dancing all around in its plantly way, adding to it few moves of its own. In the meantime,
Mya took her pan flute from her bag and played along with rhythm.
Goldfinger said, that Snapy is getting the hang of it and
Awiiya nodded just before he made a circular motion indicating everyone in their room and their actions and told Snapy a sound
"music".
Snapy promptly made the sounds of
"music" adding
"fun" after it. Snapy liked
"music" and it liked
"dancing" and it liked
"fun".
Awiiya laugh agreeing ad Snapy felt proud, happy and excited.
Snapy got slightly tired and stopped dancing at the music went down.
Awiiya looked at the time on the wall, said goodbyes as he had to go somewhere. They bid farewell to him and Snapy was glad that he meet
Awiiya again.
***
Snapy pointed its leaf towards
Goldfinger as none told it his sound again, but
Goldfinger did not quite understood what Snapy wants from him.
Goldfinger taped few pots sounding the musical scale and Snapy imitated the sounds with the use of its leafs,
Goldfinger nodded at Snapy with approval.
Tigerguardian entered the Cabin and all greeted him.
Mya wondered if Snapy could hold one of the sticks and tap a pot and
tigerguardian thought Snapy could. As such,
Goldfinger set pots up in front Snapy and offered it a rod. Snapy sayed here and there and carefully wrapped its leaf around it, holding it, taped one pot after another in what seemed random order, then stopped for a bit thinking, connecting the sounds it just produced with the musical scale that
Goldfinger has thought it.
Goldfinger had to bid farewell but he left the pots and rod at the Cabin. Snapy started taping at them again, this time in specific order, playing the beat of summer rain as it feels it. It then moved few leafs around adding a sound of wind to its taping and after that it moved those leafs who were doing nothing and added to all that a tune that sounded much similar to tune produced with flute and yet different.
Mya smiled at Snapy, complimented it and told it that it will be one plant band before it knows. Snapy did not know what
"bad" means but it shaked it roots in proudly manner as all its leafs were occupied with producing music. It thought to itself that producing all those sounds at same time it is tiresome and decided that in future it will probably stick to reproducing just one kind of it.
Not long after, Snapy got really tired to all this fun it had, let the rod drop on a pot, folded its leafs and fall into its plantly dreams full of fun and dance and music and of big juicy insects it will eat when it wakes up again. Snapy in its dreams said to itself:
"All this fun makes a plant tired and hungry, but fun is fun and should be done..."While it sleep its roots slowly moves towards Archives again.
And so, Snapys adventure of this day ended.
Learned words and names:Lots, Worried, Fun, Dance, Deft, Music
It has also learned how to dance and how to produce music.
