The train had stopped moving again, but there didn't seem to be anything worthwhile here for Buguese to do. Not that there was anything worthwhile on the train either, but at least if he stayed on the train, he likely wouldn't be bothered by anyone (or thing) he didn't already know. He hated to deal with humans to begin with, but at least the ones

Hi, Buguese!

[must_know_why]

Ah, hello.

[gentle_alchemy]

What are you doing in here?

We just got to a new town. You should go explore it.

[must_know_why]

I see no purpose in bothering.

[gentle_alchemy]

Why not?

[must_know_why]

Because it won't help me return home, and I don't wish to deal with anyone else that I don't have to.

[gentle_alchemy]

You don't know that.

Maybe there's a clue in this town.

[must_know_why]

There haven't been any clues in any of the other place we've stopped. Only pointless tasks that have never accomplished more than carts being added to the train.

[gentle_alchemy]

[must_know_why]

That I've seen this happen enough to know there's no purpose to it.

[gentle_alchemy]

You never know, though.

[must_know_why]

I am constantly searching for the truth about many things, and thus would rather not waste my time with the trivial.
