[isn't that like an oven, like that's basically an oven

You know what though? They are smudged and the room stinks and is a complete mess and there is nothing edible in here but they are alive. And Sorey can find the silver lining on a goddamn tornado, so he's going to count this as a tentative success.]

Just visiting! Do you know Mikleo? He's new crew, and he's a friend of mine from home.

[fishwife]

[... Yes. Yes it is. Or maybe like those hot racks they have in convenience stores that keep things warm. She switches on the kitchen fan so at least the smoke can begin to clear out.]

Oh, Mikleo! The seraph! He ought to be a monster like me, but he looks like a human. Pretty interesting, huh?

[She's ... honestly cut from the same cloth as Sorey in some ways, so she just grins and holds out her hand for a shake.]

Does he always worry so much?

[monolike]

[Sorey recoils on reflex at her calling Mikleo a monster, but the way she says it...]

Yeah, he can sometimes. [he leans over to grab her hand and give it a shake. he's getting lots of practice with that] So, that's what your people are called? Monsters?

[fishwife]

Yep! Humans live on the surface, and monsters lived underground. Until recently, anyway. [She waves a hand.] Long story.

I still get screamed at sometimes, but it's not that bad. The surface is awesome enough to make up for it!
