I've never really been sure, to tell you the truth. But I think that maybe fraggles used to wear them.

At least... That's what I like to think.

[For a second, he's quiet as he just smiles again; this one very small. He's always hoped that someday, fraggles will wear socks - be it again or the first time - and there'll be that much more to do with his laundry. Even when hope was hardest for him, that particular one has always been there. It's a comfort.

He gives another chuckle, and then the moment passes as he shakes his head.]

And of course, socks can still get dirty. Just being around in caves and tunnels will do that to anything! So they do still need some washing. I don't think even I would like to do laundry that doesn't need to be done. ...Probably.

[It wouldn't make sense, and he likes when things make sense!]
