As if Kang hadn't been pissed off enough about a goddamn bronze dragon being on the ship, it had to get worse with Howard's exaggerations and assumptions, and other crewmembers not even bothering to listen when they were told there was absolutely nothing for them to worry about. Bronzes were creatures of Good.
If Crucible had any plans to kill anyone on Stacy, his only targets would be himself and his daughter. He was beginning to doubt that, too, after both the incident with Kali during Lirath and his own run-in, and as much as he liked not being killed, he didn't like the dragon's interest in his family, either.
Visits to the Sensoriums to blow off steam had become more frequent for the bozak in the past weeks. Every now and then he'd enter one to find it occupied, and leave immediately, but this one made him curious.
Ash would, thank you very much, but he doubted he would imagine dragons in his supermarket, much less half-dragon half-man creatures that looked an awful lot like Drunken Dragon Tavern Owner/Councillor whatshisname ...
Oh crap.
He couldn't figure it out. Had he imagined him in here or was he really in here? Ash stared (and obviously so) at the behemoth seven-foot or so tall draconian until he could figure it out.
That had to be the owner. And judging from the staring, he was relatively new. Kang quirked an eyebrow ridge and glanced around at the shelves briefly, "I'm going to venture a guess that this was your job before you got brought here."
"That's right." That kind of implied lizard lips was no a figment of his imagination, but Ash proceeded with caution.
"Worked in Housewares, just living a simple life before all the stuff in the cabin happened... and then I guess all space alien stuff that brought me here, happened."
Kang wondered why the Daligig would pick up this human, then. Either he'd done something important in his universe he preferred not to mention, or he was a loved one. "It can be a bit jarring. Understatement, I know." It had been even more jarring for him, being from a world that didn't even have internal combustion engines, and was unaware of other worlds, let alone universes, existing.
"No kidding it's an understatement." Opening up any opportunity to complain about the situation seemed like a great idea to Ash, even if it was to an intimidating looking dragon guy. "I mean, I don't know what kind of world you come from pal but I went from your average college kid camping out in a spooky cabin in the middle of the woods, to accidentally waking up Sumarrian demons and traveling through time to go beat them on the promise I'll get back home and everything'll be normal again when all's said and done."
Jaw set, the frown on his face might as well of been chiseled in. "Guess that didn't work out at all, did it."

Who the hell would imagine up a supermarket?
