How it was:
Plushie was in a box that was taken to the circus. The box fell into the water, from where it fell downstream into Eugene's cave. When he found her, he thought she was a toy. Imagine his surprise when it turned out that she was alive :D
Today, while I was sleeping, I had a dream. It was like a new episode of a cartoon, but everything happened as if through my eyes from Hilda鈥檚 perspective. She and her friends were in some abandoned place and behind the bushes they found a small lake in which they saw Eugene. Well, they talked, I don鈥檛 remember well what happened there, but then they found themselves in some abandoned theater, already sitting in the audience seats. Well, Hilda immediately noticed that Eugene was a little nervous. And then we saw the owner of this theater - some kind of ghost. I don鈥檛 know exactly what kind of ghost it was, but she controlled everything here. As it turned out later, Eugene promised her something or lost, I don鈥檛 know, and now he has to be here all the time, which, surprisingly, didn鈥檛 make him happy at all. Well, then came the rescue operation of this poor merman. :D The funniest thing I remember is that Hilda had to run from the ghost while holding Eugene in her arms because apparently he was too scared to run on his own. It was very funny. XD
