[Ignoring the need to make a joke that he was either new or had been hiding all the time, he pushed passed it to be more polite. No need for his sometimes warped humor just yet, not so soon after moving in and meeting everyone.] That I be. 'm Remy, nice to meet ya Jade.

'nd I might just take ya up on that sometime, since ya used the magic word there.

[thebarkside]

What's the magic word?

[ she levels a mock-serious look his way. ]

'Protein gel'?

[cajunspice]

Was thinkin' more 'spicy'. I be a Cajun boy, we live for lots of spices 'nd heat in our food, 'nd what we got here as far as extra flavorin' goes feels a little lackin' for m' taste buds.

[thebarkside]

Hehe, yeah, I had a feeling. I wasn't trying to be impolite, but-- that's where your accent is from? It's really neat.

[cajunspice]

Merci cherie, 'nd don't worry, kinda hard to 'nsult me.

'm from a little place... well, big place, called N'Orleans. [His accent causin' the words to merge together.] Though donno how much that'll mean to ya, all depends if the city even exists in ya world. Hell, depend if America exists in ya world, never know with some of the folk 've run 'nto in the past.

[thebarkside]

Oh, no! I know of New Orleans. So you're from Earth, too, I thought that might be the case.

[ she's known so many people who simply aren't, after all. ]

I grew up on Earth, but, um - I never really left my island. So I'm a little behind on things like recognizing real-life in person accents.

[cajunspice]

Ah, that so? Nice to find out the other Earthlin's 'round here. [There was then a pause before Remy gave a chuckle and shake of his head.] Never thought I would have to use that term a year or so back.

Mind me askin' what island it was? [Also, the other obvious question.] 'nd, to repeat ya on not wantin' to me 'mpolite, but be ya a mutant? [Hell, just because she was from Earth didn't mean it was from his universe, or one similar, but curiosity often ran Remy's life.]

[thebarkside]

Oh! Um. It was just - an island. Not really any particular island. My grandpa's island, maybe... we were the only ones who lived there. It wasn't very big.

[ the second question catches her off guard, and one of the white dog-ears atop her head flicks a little self-consciously. ]

Do you mean the ears, or are you talking about something else?

[cajunspice]

Yeah, more or less. Don't mean 'nything bad by it, just tryin' to figure out if ya from a world similar to mine. [Remy motioned to his own eyes.] Technically 'm a mutant, or homo superior, dependin' on who ya ask 'nd their agenda.

[thebarkside]

[ she wiggles her ears a little, but she'd be lying if she didn't admit to the fact that she was leaning in, trying to spy a look at his eyes. ]

I'm -- it's a little different for me. I'm mostly human, I think, but - uh. My world plays by a lot of really stupid and convoluted rules.
