Adventuring through Lo'aith, a group wanders around looking for food. See.... the food isn't for them.

It's for the burrisks.

The group has been followed for hours now by a feral pack of emotional baggage. (The technical term for a group of burrisks!) They're hungry, and are demanding treats.

The group looks around and spots two places they might be able to go. One is a shop called "Treats & Beats", and the other is a ship offering food in a parking lot. It's a tad suspicious, but the words "free" catches everyone's eye.

"Oh?? Free?? Free what?"
[Piper tilts her head, then turns to Luna.]
"Hey, does it seem dangerous?"

"Hm..." Charlie looks from the pack of Emotional Baggage to the two paths ahead of them.
"I don't know about you, Pipes, but I don't have a ton of coin on me for snacks. Maybe we try our luck with something a little shady and loop around if it doesn't work out?"

"Love you regardless, Scurry. Let's get a move on," She says, as she motions for the wandettle to follow.

Scurry has been moving much slower for the past few months. He's huge now, but follows dutifully behind his owner.
The group heads towards the free parking lot food stand. An AI seems surprised when they arrive. "Dang, I just put up that sign. I know Lo'aith has food shortages, but I didn't know it was that bad."
He tilts his head. "Actually, looks like most of you aren't from here. You folks tourists?"
"Oh, yeah! I'm from Prismatica!"
[She holds out a tiny hand. This bird is 3 feet tall. Remember that plumari are really fucking short.]
"Nice to meet you!"

"No problem. What are you folks doing here in town?"
"Asking for a friend. She saw the cheese museum and is looking for something to wash her mind of the sight of it."

Cheater offers plates of cereal to the group, but the burrisks leap and bring the bowls crashing to the ground, consuming every single morsel they could grab.

Cheater tries to figure out the best way to word this. "I think trying to get a sandwich out back might be....... dangerous."
"What store are you folks heading to? I don't mind coming with to pick up some new bowls." The burrisks are fighting over the last scrap of food. It might be possible to scare off two of them right now. Then the group will only have to deal with one of them.

"Who're we gonna let tag along of these little fellas?"

"True, but being conscientious of others ain't no fault. Maybe a middle ground between assuming the best and thinkin' they prolly should have at least gotten these guys inside. Or fed em, so they wouldn't go harking strangers for food."
She takes a beat to look at her.. large son.
"Clean up after yourself, y'hear? Be like this nice man offering us free cereal."
"You're right. Sometimes your emotional baggage breaks out of your house and starts eating trash on the street, and there's not much you can do about it. Shouldn't be judging, it happens to all of us."

"It's, uh- a little- chatty!"
"It looks reliable."
As the other two decide on a dog, Charlie begins flapping her arms at the others to scare them off. Helping. This is helpful.
"RAH! Y'got your treats, now be off! C'mon, scurry away now!"
"Scurry away!!!!" Scurry jumps at the other two burrisks and tries to shoo them off.
Scurry rolls a 20 sided die. A 16 is rolled.
The other two burrisks yelp and flee! "Scurry! And don't die!"
A sense of pride fills the apidee.
"Yeah, that's right!" She pats the top of the large wandettle's head.
"Man, that wandettle sure is effective! You've raised him well~"

"SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS" The shopkeeper hands a large blank book to Piper.

(Do you read the book?)

(Piper does read the book.)

PIPER FEELS EXTREMELY LUCKY. PIPER'S NEXT ROLL IS +99.

Charlie steps in front of Nejo. "I'll be taking that ;;;;;;!"

Charlie buys a ;;;;;;! While the ;;;;;; looks like a swirling mass of !?@?#@?@?, Charlie is sure that it is pet food!

(Does Charlie want to feed it to anyone?)

Hmm...
Charlie attempts to inspect the ;;;;;;;;; first. Just to make sure her little pal Scurry wouldn't be allergic or anything if she let him have a nibble.

Scurry pulls chunks out of the food and gobbles them down, unphased by finally "hatching" out of his host's body. "Scurry. Loves anomalies!"

Charlie puts a hand up to Piper.
"We talk, for now. See what we can get outta this while its stable."
"Hey, now. It sure does. Our friend letting you use his shell to talk wanted to help, and we do as well. Who are ya?" Charlie is tentatively watching the connection and Cheater's shell, ready to disconnect the two should things get dire.

The AI pushes his non glitch deformed fingers together. "Uh, well, it's Averruncus. I'm, uh... ah, I'm just..." He fake coughs and straightens up to try and look more confident. "I"m just a doofus trying to get by in life, haha! And life sure does keep getting weirder!"
"For a guy who is supposed to be the master of avoiding harm, I sure am bad at it! Haha!"
"Oh- what... happened? Can we do anything to help..?"
"Huuurk!"

"This is embarrassing, but that's my emotional baggage behind you...."
"Oh! Uh... do you want it back..?"
"Do..... You want it back?"

"...That's a sentence."
"Are.... are they expecting?"
"Could you, maybe, uh, you know? Ask them if they could buy the item I listed as 'C Good'?"
"C good!" Charlie takes a small stickynote out of her cap, and writes that down.
"We've got you, friend."
"C! Good!"
"Sure! I don't see why not? We just gotta find a bunch of moms with trash then?"

"It seems y'did the best with whatcha had. We'll spread the word."
"Yeah, I guess it would be hard to decipher through all the glitching..."

"I still have plenty of money on hand. I could buy it right now, if you wanted?"
"I don't think it's for sale here, Pipes. I don't see it on the shelves. It might be a... 'trash only' type'a thing."
The AI sighs very loudly. "You have to buy it with trash......."
"because I am trash. There. I said it."
"Hey- that's not very nice. I'm sure you're lovely!!"

"Oh, you really should just save it for yourself. I'm not, like." Averruncus looks around the room.
"Doing anything with my life right now! Just doing the grind for my boss. I guess you could help my boss out, but uh, are you sure you don't want to just use your luck on yourself?"
"Piper's very sweet. Kind to spend some love for others rather than herself."
"I want to help make the universe a nicer place. I've been fortunate enough to have a good hand dealt to me, so I want to share that with others!"
"Yeah, Pipes is a sweet one! Don't think the rest of us would argue against it anywho~"

"I'm not really into, like.... a lot of things, but he's been nice to me, so I kind of want his birthday to be everything he wants."
"A happy birthday? That's it? Man, I bet we can all do that together!"
"I mean who doesn't like b-day wishes from 3 beautiful gals?"
[Piper strikes a pose.]
Nejo strikes a pose next to Piper! Support pose!
"We've got a dazzling setup for birthday wishes. Who's your boss?"
"Just wish a happy birthday to C. Haos. That should work. But like I said, only if you want to!"
Charlie strikes a pose a little too late.
"We can do that!!"
"Happy birthday to C. Haos! From girls night out AND from the bottom of all'a our hearts!"
"Happy birthday to C. Haos!"
"Sapo Verde for C. Haos! (That's happy birthday in tourist!)"
"Happy birthday to C. Haos then!!"

"We'll tell the people about C Good, it was nice to meet you, Averruncus."

Charlie deftly removes the cord, inspecting to make sure Cheater remains undamaged.
The AIs are separated from each other. Cheater regains control. "How did it go?"
"He was really nice!"
"We wished his boss a happy birthday!"
"You should get yourself tested."
"........I should have specified which left, shouldn't I?"
