You've got a sort of regal aura about you, you know? Is that just normal with... halovians, was it?
No? [ Maybe he's a bit self-conscious now... he hope that didn't come off as flirting or something. It wasn't. ] Well, pick whichever word you want then...

Are you picking them out for me? What about yourself?

Yeah, I mean. Given the everything we know, it'd be pretty stupid if I just decided to sat around doing nothing, right? Either that, or I'm just letting it happen.
Not sitting around and doing nothing manifests differently for everyone. You collect supplies for any eventual situation, it seems, as a start. Others may act with their heart first. I prefer talking to people to see how they are and where that may lead to.

A bit of a dour analogy, but it's not wrong. Watchful eyes behind the bars and veil included.
It's hard to take it easy around here, but always worth trying where you can.
no subject
[ anyway, that is very dour in front of someone who is notably less dour.
she offers a hand to him. affection week! ]
So let's try like this.

Regal? There are a number of Halovians in leadership positions in Penacony, but it's not something that's inherent to all of us.
no subject
So it's something that comes naturally to you specifically, then.

[ she is going to start pulling out tops for daan to choose from with her free hand.
button up or a color block t-shirt? ]

no subject
No, I appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for thinking I'm regal.
[ robin thinks she's more ordinary than she is. she drapes the button up over his arm. ]
I will collect more clothes for myself. The village isn't the most pristine place.
[ #milleniumidol time, as much as an animal crossing shop allows. ]
no subject
It isn't. Can't believe we spent a week there like this.
Promise to never bring it up ever again once we've freshened up?
no subject
Of course. You have my word. It's only forward from here.
no subject
Great. We can start new.

Have you seen any bags around here?
no subject
she isn't changing yet, but he can see she has collected two or three outfits. they are kind of on the fancier side on account of being an hsr. ]
Only purses... A tote bag could be neutral enough.
[ she is assuming he'd prefer something gender neutral. ]

With all the bloodshed they want for their rituals, it'd be wise to carry your medical kit around as much as possible.
[ she hates that she has to consider this. ]
You like to be prepared, don't you?
no subject
Yeah, I mean. Given the everything we know, it'd be pretty stupid if I just decided to sat around doing nothing, right? Either that, or I'm just letting it happen.
Both don't sit so well with me.

I don't really have in me to get all that emotional about it, I guess?
But I can get talking to people and things like that. It's good to see what other people think.
no subject
[ she smiles. he doesn't need to be emotional to show that. ]
How affected people are.... how much they are struggling... they're all things I worry about.

Sounds like a very charitable family you've joined.
no subject
A disaster brought forth by a cancerous lifeform. It's called a Stellaron.
The Family does its best to reach out when it can, and I'm grateful for all the opportunities they've given me.

[ who is they? that's a lot of people.
listen, you just say people still don't know shit about jack and then you don't have to explain much. ]
no subject
But I'm glad you've found a new family that's accepted you.
