Yo.

So I did some checking and the Puppy Prison is just a name. It's not really that free a place but I think maybe dogs would feel better having a home of their own and friendly faces-- so if you know of any roaming free or were keeping some and didn't know what to do with them, let me know and I'll pick them up.

I'll take your dogs too if you want, Coby. You're a good guy for taking them in but I was just messing with your head and seeing if you would do it. You're not supposed to be that good of a Marine you know. It's gross. [said all with a flat inflection]

Otherwise contact me any time day or night.

[waves at the camera and cuts the feed]

[Ace can be found in every city, picking up dogs to put in his wagon or the dogs following at his heels. He doesn't seem in the best of moods but he's not apparently angry either so that's a good sign, isn't it?]

... No. It's not.

[ He falls silent again, once more becoming pensive. Honestly he doesn't even know why he told Ace that much, even if he tried to keep the language as neutral as possible to avoid giving too much away about himself or his village. Anything about him, really. ]

[quiet quiet and more quiet. If this kid brooded any more he'd lay eggs]

Well... what's she like?

[beforethedarkness]

I only know what she was like before, it could have changed by now.

Before, she was shy, quiet, and kept to herself. She had a crush on an idiot. I don't know how she's changed by now.

[orangeoutlaw]

Shy... quiet... [he scratches his chin] Recently arrived you said?

[beforethedarkness]

Yeah, she did.

Why, did you run into her?

[orangeoutlaw]

I may have hit on her. She's pretty cute.

[beforethedarkness]

She's also only got eyes for a complete moron. You're wasting your time.
