[ Rex spots Nero outside, where he's observing a variety of the uhhhh unusual flora. His daemon Amparo sniffs at them cautiously while Rex waves him over. ]

Hey!

You know all about food and stuff. Do you know if any of this is edible?

[perfectdistance]

You know I'm not from here, right?

[Disce walks next to him in her leopard cat form, taking a sniff of the flowers.]

My bet's gonna be as good as yours. The mushrooms in the cave are edible, just don't eat too many of 'em.

[third_alternative]

And yet, you know all about the mushrooms.

What happens if I eat too many?

[perfectdistance]

[He looks incredibly serious.]

You'll die.

[perfectdistance]

[Laugh]

Nah, you'll just have a stomachache.

[third_alternative]

You tested that yourself?

[perfectdistance]

Nah, I watched Allen do it.

w3: Monday

[perfectdistance]

[There are people here!

There are many more people here than anywhere else they've been. Which means Nero has been going about and doing some bartering, before coming back to the housing area with some food and groceries.

Though non of it is really fresh, it's workable for some meals.]

[third_alternative]

[ sees Nero with all the food and practically RUNS TO AMBUSH HIM ]

You said you're a cook, right? What're you gonna make?

[perfectdistance]

[Don't startle the cook! He jumps slightly]

B-bread? Maybe some meat dumplin' type things...

[third_alternative]

What kinda meat dumplings are we talking here?

[ he....might be drooling a little ]

[perfectdistance]

With bird, probably.

Have you been eating okay?

[third_alternative]

I mean, I've been eating, but nothing as good as meat dumplings!

w3, tuesday

[third_alternative]

[ Rex kicks open the door to House 1 as he exits it and his eyes scan over whoever the hell is around--which is Nero, apparently ]

You! Perfect!

Okay, quick, you gotta tell me what your world is like!

[perfectdistance]

[WHY Are you yelling at him? Disce jumps like a startled cat, and Nero picks her up.]

Wh-Huh?? Why?

[third_alternative]

Cuz I wanna know, that's why!

[perfectdistance]

[he's such a difficult bitch.]

's this for a Watcher thing?

[third_alternative]

Does it matter?

[perfectdistance]

How much d'ya even wanna know?

w3: Thursday

[perfectdistance]

[Nero and Disce stretch out as the rhythm Thursday night begins.]

Looks like we're gettin' locked in.

[As always.]

[third_alternative]

[ nodding solemnly ]

Looks like it.

...I really thought more people would be here tonight.

[perfectdistance]

Yeah, so did I.

Usually make plans t' meet somebody. [A slight shrug of his shoulders.]

'least we can vouch for each other tomorrow.

[third_alternative]

[ nods. ]

So! Night is still young, there's stalls open...what're you thinking we start with?

[perfectdistance]

How's a midnight snack sound?

[third_alternative]

I like the way you think.
