... you don't remember being here before?

[OH WELL he's not sure how he feels about that.

Damn it.]

[mysterious_groper]

"Nooope! Kinda makes me think of one of those Starfish Ranger Space plots, you know, with the robot clones?"

[dualbladewarrior]

... I'm fairly certain you're not a robot clone, Pascal. I know what your robots look like.

[Exasperated sigh. For a moment, he's almost entirely forgotten about the animals. Until he feels something tugging on the back of his uniform tails.

Damned goats.]

Oh these blasted animals--...

[Might want to stop him, Pascal. He's about three seconds from taking out a pistol and shooting the poor thing.]

[mysterious_groper]

*And Pascal's shotstaff comes out. She uses the end to poke the goat, enough to get it off of Hubert's coat and away.*

Who would have guessed the petting zoo would have so many animals, huh?

[dualbladewarrior]

The carnival prides themselves in having very large attractions. I suppose there has to be something to entertain all of these people who show up out of no where...

[mysterious_groper]

Sheesh, where do they all come from? I mean, this city is only so big...

[dualbladewarrior]

That, I haven't the faintest clue. I never bothered to ask when I was assigned to this quadrant...

[mysterious_groper]

Another mystery, I guess.

This place seems full of them.

[dualbladewarrior]

More than you know...

Well, if you're here to assist, then I appreciate it.

[And will be pretending like things aren't horribly awkward for me right now.]

[mysterious_groper]

Yeah. It'll probably be easier if we both work on this... Though, uh, what's the goal here anyhow? Where are we trying to get them all?

[dualbladewarrior]

... you mean you've just been herding them around aimlessly this entire time?

[mysterious_groper]

More or less. I figured if I kept moving eventually I'd find where I should be going.

[dualbladewarrior]

That--...

Is a terrible idea that actually worked.

[mysterious_groper]

... Now that I say it aloud, it kind of sounds stupid huh?

[dualbladewarrior]

A bit. You're lucky it worked at all.

[mysterious_groper]

Eh. Sometimes it's about the results.

Try using the flat of your blade. Nudging them along the butt seems to be enough to get them moving.

[dualbladewarrior]

[Can't really argue with that, and he's not going to try for once.

He just lets out a sigh and pulls out his weapon, connecting the blades before going after them like she suggested.]

[mysterious_groper]

This is certainly an odd first task to be working on together, huh Hu?

[dualbladewarrior]

First--

... o-oh. Yes. Of course. It is a bit strange.

[mysterious_groper]

Well, I mean since I arrived here. You've been here a while, right?

[dualbladewarrior]

Yes. About eight months, give or take some days.

[mysterious_groper]

... Aww, man! I'm going to run out of exploring in maybe another week, too!

[dualbladewarrior]

... you've already explored that much in such a short time?

[mysterious_groper]

Well, this city's only so large, and a lot of areas are honestly kind of boring, so...

[dualbladewarrior]

It's not really meant to be exciting. Aside from being underwater, it's a fairly average city otherwise.
