Nobody in Clover Cove gets it right the first time.
Chaotic Chimis count the tries out loud.
Then they go again.
He counts his attempts out loud because the number is not a score, it is proof he has not stopped.
Zipp is the feeling of going again. Not the triumphant version with the music swelling — the smaller, more useful one, where you sigh, pick the thing back up, and have another go.
He is the fastest Chimi in the Cove and also the one who falls over most, and he will tell you those two facts are the same fact.
His real talent is not speed. It is that he is impossible to be discouraged around. Chimis who set out with Zipp tend to get further than they meant to, and are never quite sure how.
“That was attempt four. Attempt five is going to be great.”
