[mongoosegrin]

[pleasantly:] Hello.

[a beat. this is so funny; is anybody even able to hear him talk through a little circle-thing?]

I like your place, I think. Can you tell me about it more?

Comments

[voice!]

[apathycary]

You're just getting settled right in, aren't you?

[mongoosegrin]

[a chuckle.]

Good morning, St. Helen.

[apathycary]

[ He audibly chokes after that 'St. Helen', mister. ]

That is not my name!

[mongoosegrin]

It is the only kind of name you have given so far!

voice;

[peacenguns]

[ Small, quiet, and almost a little robotic. ]

Could you address something more specific?

[mongoosegrin]

Specifically...plenty? I am quite new to talking with trinkets, you see. And being in such a funny place - it is to be considered funny, yes?

[peacenguns]

[ A funny place. Riiight. ]

Not necessarily.

[mongoosegrin]

No?

Why would that be?

audio;

[shit4aim]

Sure thing, pal. 'It sucks'.

[That last is unnecessarily drawn out and enunciated. You know, in case he's speaking to a moron.]

[mongoosegrin]

...Howso, may I please ask?

audio;

[shit4aim]

We're here, aren't we?

[THAT IS ALL THE REASON ANYONE EVER NEEDS.]

[mongoosegrin]

Well, I am here, yes. It seems fair and perhaps decent from this height...

What about this place discourages you?

voice;

[mykimlasca]

[Regardless of her condition, Natalia's voice is cordial]

It's hardly our place, but it can be pleasant. It's called Splendor City.

[mongoosegrin]

"Splendor City"...Do you think it is living up to "splendorous", miss?

[mykimlasca]

In some aspects, no. I think it's conduct towards us is quite fickle.

[mongoosegrin]

Fickle as nature is? Or perhaps you are referring to something different.
