Paella? That's easy, but she's just really great anyway.

[He takes his spoon and nabs a bite.]

I mean I can get you a recipe though.

From:

curriculum_fictae

I’d like that very much.

[ He continues to eat contentedly. ]

From:

hijoperdido

[Just a slow creeping smile before he digs into the huevos.]

Then yeah. Yeah, I'll get that for ya.

From:

curriculum_fictae

[ Are you making a friend Bruno?? How does that feel.

Martin returns the smile, bright and warm. ]

Thank you, Bruno.

From:

hijoperdido

[It feels REALLY weird. A human friend. How novel.]

Y-yeah. Of course.

From:

curriculum_fictae

[ He continues to take small, pleased bites. ]

Do you have books back here?

From:

hijoperdido

Um. A few, yeah. Mostly stuff I grabbed when no one was looking.

[He gestures to the small stack on a barrel in front of the arm chair.]

From:

curriculum_fictae

May I look through them?

From:

hijoperdido

Uh...

Sure?

[There aren't many, mostly just some old story books Abuela had carried with her.]

From:

curriculum_fictae

[ Ah, yeah. He sees that immediately just sorting through them. ]

Not much for entertainment back here, I see.

From:

hijoperdido

Kinda make my own entertainment. Just, y'know.

From:

curriculum_fictae

… You only have yourself and the rats to help?

From:

hijoperdido

Yeah. I mean, who else am I gonna ask?

From:

curriculum_fictae

I suppose there’s no one else. Yeah.

From:

hijoperdido

But you know, it's great, I mean I get to listen to them, hear all the gossip. I-I'm not sure Isabel really wants to marry that guy Mariano.

From:

curriculum_fictae

Who’s Isabel? And … who’s Mariano?

From:

hijoperdido

Isabel is the oldest of my other sister - sister who made all the food.

Mariano's just - He's a good guy, he's just from the village.

From:

curriculum_fictae

So, good people, but a bad matchup?

From:

hijoperdido

I think so, yeah.

[Munch munch.]

I think Dolores likes him.

From:

curriculum_fictae

… Oh. Oh dear. That cannot be comfortable for any of them.

From:

hijoperdido

No, but. Isabel's pretty determined to do what's best for the family, and Dolores isn't going to get in the way of that because she also wants the family and village happy.
