I suppose to someone who's functionally immortal, we're like blips on a
radar screen.

Well...on one hand yes in the grand scheme of things but that was true with or without my being there to witness it. But also no. I like people. They're weird, and gross; they come in all shapes and sizes, have different experiences. Some fascinating, some boring -- and some devastating deaths. I like the surprise of it.
You like people?
It took me a long time to warm up to that.

I trust you're handling this port better than I am.

Oh no, how did you get even cuter?

That is inappropriate! We are animals and I will not have - what are you, incidentally?

Also adorable, as you can see. I've never had a tail before, I don't think.
[ And look at it! so fluffy! ]

You look like a darker version of a fox. Do they come in different shades?
No, not the point. I have to restock and my thumbs are now nonexistent. I'm carrying things with my teeth.

Search me; I'm the first one I've ever met.
These paws seem all right for handling objects. Have you tried? There are lots of fruits and pastries at the Abbey.
...What do you intend to restock with?

Apparently fruits and pastries. There seem to be little in the way of anything else here.
Important followup question:
[ holds up a paw, reaches to pick something up. Look at this strawberry that's more...grapefruit-sized than strawberry sized. ]
Will these be this big when we take them back?

If so their seeds would grow them this big too, right?
So conceivably we could have people in the greenhouses grow giant fruits and vegetables.
And what are we supposed to eat in the meantime while we're waiting for these to grow?
All the... other ones we bring back? I mean look at this thing; there's at least a couple hundred seeds on just one, see?
You...may have a point.
All right. I'll bring the cart around, you scavenge.

[There's an adorable bunny who looks rather cross, pushing a cart in the Grandmaster's last known location]
[ He's taken by a sudden impulse to jump out and startle the rabbit; some now inherent hunting instinct and just a need for mischief...much higher than normal. ]
Hello!
Hello!
[Hux gives an involuntary yelp, twisting around in mid-air, poised to run. One of the hellish things about animal instinct is being a prey rabbit, and he only marginally manages to calm himself down when something big with teeth comes for him]
....
Hello, Grandmaster.
[He says, standing on his back legs and licking his fur down.]

Could I make a game, where I'm the grandmaster, and you merely the player?
...Were we in the middle of a conversation just now?
No, but I was looking through your file and now that my own warden has disappeared, I'm a little concerned that we need to be making more progress than we have been.
So could I?
So could I?
