Punkie's letter had been very easy to understand - she'd used easy words and large font, big and bold like her horns and her way of speaking, with only a few of her more complicated Juggalo sayings here and there.
For some nubsucking flavor! he recalled her teasing him once, telling him that she had to tone down her writing for him and that he should be grateful.
He was, he had told her,
he was.He was getting used to the distinctly unnatural constructed environment of New Hemisect City over the course of his many visits, but the plantings in this area were a welcome sight. His sandaled feet (He was trying to be shod but it still felt so strange!) tapped ponderously on the sidewalk as he admired the shady, colorful trees that added grace and nature to the otherwise stark landscape.
Nature is everywhere, life is in everything. Even in the most barren of places, it thrives.That had been something that his lusus had said, before his dormancy. He said that less, now, his slow words much less favorable to the constructed and mechanized even as Sephos himself was beginning to realize that it was all just part of another ecosytem, on a planet of many. Neither good nor bad.
MaybeHe noticed Punkie at about the point that he realized that he was approaching his destination. He waved back, approaching with a little more spring to his step.
"Hey." he said simply,
"Did yuh have to wait too long?" He hoped he was on time - he'd tried. He'd even looked at clocks as he'd left the train station.
He let her hook her arm in his, shifting it around slightly so she had a good, comfortable grip despite their slight differences in arm height and morphology. He wondered if he needed to know anything in particular about the other two trolls at the table, but he had a sinking feeling in his digestive organs and chest that told him that even if he asked he would probably still not know.
He would just have to deal with it, as he always did.
