Who: Furiosa and you!
Broadcast: Scenic shots
Action: Planet - Beachside
When: Today

It was almost too much to believe.

An unspoiled planet, clear blue skies, water as far as the eye could see. She pans the camera around to catch the expanse of beach with the ocean stretching out to the horizon, the sun glinting off the waves, a few puffy clouds wafting their way past.

"I will never tire of this."

She'll be on the beach, just walking along and taking it all in. Trudging through sand is not unfamiliar with her, but the sound of the waves is intoxicating and foreign.

[She remains impassive at his subtle change, but she notes it and is irritated by it, and that comes through in her tone.]

True, there's no threat of me eating anyone's fish, [She can't speak for Nux.] but it's going to take some time to get used to the idea.

[unbearablynaive]

[Ah, well, there's no avoiding feelings brought from one's home.]

I understand. Thank you for the reassurance, I suppose.

[kill_switch]

You're that attached to it?

[She's curious, since this is a new concept to her.]

[unbearablynaive]

[He tilts his head, slightly curious. If food is that important, clearly there aren't such a thing as pets where she's from.]

By purchasing the fish as a pet, I have taken responsibility for its wellbeing. I take such responsibility seriously.

[kill_switch]

[It wasn't impossible, but exceedingly rare, and not something she'd encountered personally.]

[Which might be evident in the continued blank stare she gives him as she lets that sink in. Not eating animals is one thing, choosing to care and feed for them a whole other level.] I hope it doesn't disappoint you.

[unbearablynaive]

[Considering how many fish he'd looked at that weren't quite the right color, he's pretty sure he won't be disappointed.]

Thank you. I'm sure it will fit in well with the others I've purchased.

[kill_switch]

[He has more fish. But really, maybe she shouldn't be so surprised at someone looking so strange having strange habits.]

[But there's more to be gained from this. She frowns slightly.]

Were pets popular where you're from?

[unbearablynaive]

Yes, very much so. Companionship is highly valued, but there are pets that do work as well. A light source that doesn't depend on electricity may come in handy. [Granted, Mr. Stark tended to have simple AI-bots as pets rather than animals, but Dum-E was most definitely a pet.]
