how are you all dealing with the ever-so-educational volcano? have you played around with the visual toggle on those collars yet? aren't they cool? aren't these peasant clothes rad? if you haven't had a decent meal since Abeo, maybe you could afford some of that authentic farm-raised meat they have here. historical!

[Well, if there;s one thing Manolo is good at, it's fighting for a CAUSE. ]

Who's to say there isn't?

[ino]

[ She gives him a look. ]

This place hasn't been around for awhile for nothing. I'm sure there's been previous attempts that have been thwarted.

[puro]

Ah, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. We just need to find another way.

[ino]

[ ... a small smile. He kinda reminds her of like ... a Mexican wooden Naruto. ]

I think maybe this calls for some investigation.

[puro]

[He promises he will never pee on you.]

That's the spirit. I bet there's lots of clues around the place.

[ino]

[ THANKS FRIEND. ]

I guess it doesn't hurt to check, at least.

[puro]

[Better than Naruto already! ]

I will ask around, I wanted to see if anyone knew a way back to Earth, anyway. The place is full of tourists, someone might have been that end of the galaxy.

[ino]

[ She kind of doubts it would ever be that easy, and also there's the whole thing about there being multiple Earths, but she won't put a damper on his enthusiasm there. ]

I hope so. That would be pretty helpful for some of the people here.

[puro]

[Even that wouldn't stop him. This one is ridiculously determined.]

I'd want everyone to get home, if I could help them.

[ino]

[ She gives him a look ... ]

What sort of place do you come from, Manolo?

[puro]

I'm from a little town in the middle of Mexico, San Angel. It's a good place, it's got good people in it.

[A pause, because he's remembered not everyone is from the same world here. ]

...That's on a planet called Earth.

[ino]

Mexico? I don't think I've ever heard of that before.

[ But it sounds like he loves it there, so ... ]

It's good you have good people to go back to.

[puro]

It's a beautiful country, you'd love it.

[Okay, so it's still hanging on to what remains of it after the revolution, but still. ]

I have the best people waiting for me. San Angel is a good place.

[Even after everything, after almost everyone turned on him, he absolutely believes this. ]

[ino]

[ LMFAO ... Poor Manolo ... ]

You're very lucky ... I hope you're able to find a way home soon, then.

[puro]

Gracias. I'm going to do everything I can to get back.

To get all of us back. [Because this thing is bigger than him, and he can't in good conscience abandon people here. ]

[ino]

Grasi ... ass ... ?

[puro]

Gracias. It means thank you.

[ino]

What language is that?

[puro]

Spanish. You've never heard of it?

[Not everyone is from Earth, Manolo. You should know this.]

[ino]

No ... I don't think we have that where I'm from.

Where I come from, "thank you" is "arigatou".

[puro]

Ah-ree-gat-oo?

[He tried. ]

[ino]

[ It's okay, Manolo, she had a hard time with yours too ]

Ah-ree-ga-toh.

[puro]

[Words are hard. ]

Ah-reee-ga-toh?
