[ he lives here now. ]

Jus' takin' stock right now. Not sure if there's much point with the way people are destroyin' the joint, but...

[ Y'KNOW. good to know what they have. ] Might throw together somethin' quick.

[florescences]

I know dying can be traumatic, but... they shouldn't take joy away from others, too.

[ grief isn't something that excuses everything. ]

Can I try whatever you make?

[berserketype]

I'll be honest. I figured there was just a whole lotta nothin' after dyin'. Guess it could be an adjustment period for people?

[ in which knives are dented. ]

[florescences]

[ people should have more respect for knives.... they're important in the a mg. ]

I didn't know what to expect either. It's not something I was afraid of, but... [ she hums. ] I'm not mad at anyone for taking time to adjust, but I hope there's a way they can be soothed.

[berserketype]

[ maybe that's the trick. dent them to make their use in murder more obvious. ]

Sounds like you've been thinkin' 'bout it though.

[ hmm. ] Sure. But if they wreck the kitchen, all bets are off.

[florescences]

[ is that how it works?

she laughs. ]

I've had a lot of time to think about a lot of things. The kitchen must be important to you.

[berserketype]

Cooking's important. And if I've got a place t'do it in, I wanna keep it.

[ ... oh. ]

Is this one of those "I look 20, but add a zero" things?

[florescences]

Cooking is one of the most essential and comforting things anyone can do. It gives life.

[ she laughs a little. ]

Kind of. Do you have people who live long lives in your world, or is this because of someone you met here?

[berserketype]

It sure does. [ i am so excited to play someone who cooks again, my god. next it’ll be singers again. i can’t be stopped. ] Not much y’can do if you’re starvin’.

More the last part. Literally a ‘maybe add a zero on that’ kinda person. We’ve got Rhoag though? They live pretty long, once they stop agin’.

[florescences]

[ you want to go back to your circus. i understand. ]

A full stomach is a full heart.

[ maybe she's just saying things at this point, but she supports basilio and likes it when people feel strongly about something that's a net positive. ]

Yeah? Who was that? And Rhoag? Can you tell me a little more about them?

[ she truly just wants to learn more. ]

[berserketype]

[ cycles around on my unicycle. ]

It---

[ hang on ] ... Am I meant to be outtin' people's ages without their permission? [ he can tell her about the rhoag though ]

[florescences]

Hmm... you can tell me who to ask, and I'll ask them how old they are. How about that? I think we can bond over our 0s.

[ or something like that. ]

[berserketype]

... Do I want to know how many 0s you're gonna add?

[florescences]

Don't worry about it. How many it is or isn't doesn't matter so much here. What matters more is if we can become friends, don't you think?

[berserketype]

[ uhhhh. ]

Sure, I guess so?

[ fwends. ]

There's some kinda sayin' about age just bein' a number anyway.

[florescences]

[ friends! ]

It is. You can experience as much in one year as you can in five.

[berserketype]

…

[ BOY HOWDY CAN YOU ]

… Yeah, I know that pretty well at this point.

[florescences]

[ uh oh ]

Was that your last year or so?

[berserketype]

It's been a pretty busy few years. An' a ridiculously busy few weeks. Y'know how it goes.

[florescences]

Hmm....

[ stares at her 50,000 years. ]

I won't know unless you tell me how. Everyone has their own experiences, and I don't want to be too general or broad....

[berserketype]

[ showing off with all those years there. ]

End of the world kinda busy, like. Political upheaval, potentially everyone turnin’ into Humans. Way over my head though, but if the Captain wants me to smack our way through to the guy causin’ half the issues, that I can do.

[florescences]

Humans?

[ the way he says it makes her think it's not the same kind of human she knows. ]

I know a bit about end of the world trouble and political upheaval, but what are Humans in your world? Is there some kind of mastermind?

[berserketype]

[ it sure is not. ]

Giant monsters, basically. Guess there’s sort of a mastermind? But Human’s have always been around.

[florescences]

[ this commentary on humanity. that's so funny.

elysia rolls the concept monster Humans around in her mind. ]

It must be strange for you to be here, then, where there are humans that aren't Humans.

[berserketype]

[ looks ara dead in the eyes and nods sagely. humans are the real monsters. ]

Yeah, it’s caused a few moments. Closest we’ve got to your “humans” are Elda.
