I don't know about fun but it was okay.

[He had a really nice nap and it was super relaxing.]

Yeah I know them. And that sounds just like her. She might have just proposed to you in Orcish, so prepare for that.

[Dubious.]

[unphase]

[she gives a friendly laugh]

"Okay" is about as much as we can expect.

[d'awwwww, socute!]

Really? Oh. Well, I appreciate it but my heart's been given to another.

[her boyfriend]

[theweakhavepurpose]

It could always be worse right?

[Okay that's almost optimistic. He's trying.]

I'm not sure but she has some weird customs. And thoughts about humans. Apparently we suck where she comes from.

[Granted he thinks they kinda suck where he comes from too, but that's beside the point.]

[unphase]

Absolutely it could!

[he is! and she's proud of him!

teasingly] Oh, but have you forgotten that I'm not human? I just look the part.

[she doesn't think that all humans suck, just the ones who buy into the White Triangle's philosophy]

[theweakhavepurpose]

Yeah that's why you don't suck and the rest of us assholes do.

[unphase]

[she giggles happily] I don't suck, huh? I think that's the sweetest thing anyone's ever said to me. Thank you.

[theweakhavepurpose]

You're welcome. See? I can be positive.

I'm a ray of fucking sunshine.

[unphase]

You are! [she tries to not sound as pleased as she feels, but it's likely a losing battle] You're absolutely a ray of sunshine. At least to me.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Okay let's not overdo it.

[unphase]

I'm not! [she bats her long, black eyelashes at him.

then she starts to giggle] Okay, maybe I am. Just a little bit.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Uh-huh. Look I'll be happy and cheerful when this place stops being a miserable cesspool and I'm on the beach with a Mai tai.

[unphase]

Something tells me we're not getting that anytime soon. But I'd be happy to meet you at the Speakeasy for a Mai Tai.

[theweakhavepurpose]

I haven't even been in there yet. I kind of figured me getting shitfaced would be a bad idea.

[unphase]

If you went with me, I wouldn't let you get shitfaced. One drink, some nice conversation, then we're gone.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Good. Me being drunk is.. not good.

[He gets real sad and sobs on everyone and it's probably a million times worse now that he has actual things to be sad about.]

Where are they getting alcohol in this place?

[unphase]

Then I'd take care of you. Easy as that.

[by limiting him to one drink only and positive (or at least neutral) topics of conversation]

I think Rey, the lady who owns the Speakeasy, brews it herself. I don't know how she does it with the orchard the way it is, but she hasn't run out yet.

[theweakhavepurpose]

[He arches an eyebrow but doesn't say anything. He's not too sure a teenager is going to keep him from doing something stupid or be able to take care of him when he's a drunken wreck.]

Yeah I used to see her in the orchard all the time but .. not so much anymore. I've still been replanting it, but it's not going to fruit for a long, long time.

[unphase]

[if the blonde girl is behind the bar, Tinya thinks she can get her to comply with the one drink only thing. it'll just have to be approached delicately and before he arrives]

I've helped, too, where I can. I may not be from an agrarian world like Winath, but I can at least try.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Even if we could speed up the growing process somehow, I don't think the soil here is very good. I'm surprised they're even taking and not immediately shriveling up.

Maybe she has her own garden now to brew booze out of.

[unphase]

No, it seems kind of. . . rocky? And kind of frozen solid. That's the important part.

Maybe. If she does, she's lucky.

So, meet me at the Speakeasy soon?

[theweakhavepurpose]

Sure. After the next fiasco where we're all turned into technicolor spiders or something.

[So never.]

[unphase]

[an exaggerated shudder]

Ugh, no, not spiders. I've had my fill of giant spiders after Tangleweb.

[pleeeeeeeease?]

[theweakhavepurpose]

Maybe we'll be the fuzzy kind. Those aren't so bad.

Do I want to know what Tangleweb is?

[Maybe]

[unphase]

They're still spiders.

[ick]

He was the second bad guy the Legion fought. A giant spider alien who raided trading routes, eating the brains of the crew to make himself smarter.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Eugh.

That's fucking horrifying. And gross.
