M wasn't new to the Nexus. In fact, he's been there for twenty-seven years.

Someone who was observant would notice that they've seen him around. Someone who was very observant would notice that he has always been there. He's never been out. For all of his life

"Did you make your family?"

[nexus_rat]

He nodded.

"The other Nexus-rats."

[nexus_rat]

"Nexus-rats. Homeless of the Nexus. We're all stuck here. No families."

"I'm M."

[nexus_rat]

"I take care of them until they can make it on their own." He shrugged. "I'm not a cold bastard, I won't leave them to die."

He nodded at him. "Same."

[nexus_rat]

He shrugged. "I don't know."

"Thank you," he stammered awkwardly. He never thought of it that way; they were just his responsibility. "Most of those kids don't trust those."

[nexus_rat]

"Thanks. You aren't bad yourself."

"Until they can help themselves."

"I have a coat. LOL doesn't bother me. Guess it's because I was born here."

[nexus_rat]

"Not really. Sometimes I sleep under the sign."

"Yeah."
