I'll resume my dinner duties whenever I'm settled. I'm greatful to whoever covered for me. [And he's considerably less angry, now.]

[Private to Friends | Audio]

I brought you some things. It has been only about a week, I presume? [They're small things. Something for Lua, Wanda, Tosh, Dylan- that he's already unfortunately delivered-, Ben, Kozak, and Perry.] I'll drop them off whenever would be suitable.

[Private to the people watching Ben | Audio]

How is he doing?

It's... certainly something. Not entirely unpleasant, I do appreciate it. I think I'd like to study it. [First priority: deactivate its odd trigger to his senses.] Thanks, Rhade.

[He's definitely not getting into the personal aspect of the plant at all beyond the friendly parameters, or considering how rarely he was ever given gifts before the Barge. Instead, he simply follows behind the two at a leisurely distance.]

I can probably eat more than you can. [He's a braggart, yes. Those genes let him enjoy some stuff that would usually kill most people.]

And sadly I'm from a breeder culture and men that entirely prefer the company of men as familial partners are few and far between. [He doesn't sound biased, though. "Entirely" being the operative word. He's coming to grips with one of the people that he loves now leaving his life again, and not liking it.] So on all counts, feel free to surprise me.
