"Meat?" Amaya looked up at him. "So uh... they told you what they're turning you into?" She kind of wanted to know, but didn't want to ask directly in case it was a touchy subject with him. It had been to a few other people.

Chubbs didn't seem to mind at all really, people would know eventually, or at least, he'd have to explain the odd look to him. Reaching over with his uninjured hand, the other still holding Amaya's, he shifted his reading material closer for her to see. A book on bears, one on tasmanian devils and tigers, and the third on wolverines, all pretty thick with knowledge.
" Have a guess?"

Amaya looked at all the books, the fork she was using hanging out of her mouth slightly as she thought. Why would he have so many different books if they told him straight up what he was going to be? Her brow furrowed and she looked at each one before removing the fork from her mouth and looking up at him. "A bear?"
He was certainly big and brawny enough to be a bear... a bear wasn't that bad, either. Kinda like a teddy bear.

Chubbs smiled lightly, he kinda figured she would say that, but he was sure she picked it for good reasons.
" Well... actuall.. supposedly umm all three"
He kept a small smirk on his face, knowing the news would certainly be a bit of a shock, but that she shouldn't worry.

Amaya's eyes widdened and she looked from him to the books. A mix of a bear, wolverine, and either a tasmanian devil or a tiger? Oh my god... they could do that now? She went to say something obvious like 'sorry', but knowing that smirk on his face he was probably trying to keep the topic light-hearted... But still, she didn't know what to say even though she looked worried.

Chubbs gave her hand a reassuring squeeze, noticing she was speechless. He looked from her to the books again, and blinked, realising one had two animals as a topic.
" Oh ah, yeah.. they said the devil one... heh trust the mad b*****d to ah.. give me the part serum of a waner brothers cartoon.. umm character.. that well eats everything"
He looked backed to Amaya with a slight grin

Amaya managed to crack a small smile. "Yeah... well... at least the animals that they picked arn't... y'know... really different. Like a tiger, fish, and an insect or something." She tried to reassure both of them. The combiation wasn't... that bad. All of them were mammilian at least.

Chubbs nodded and sighed slightly, knowing she was right. HE really could have wound up completely freaked to the gills. There was need for trying to do something like that. HE was an expirimental though, The effects weren't going to be certain
" I'm glad it wasn't.. well a pig... I just felt that would been mean"
He looked down at her hand, checking out the her fingers and scales.
" Umm.. sorry, ya can take ya hand.. if ya like.. just thought ya um.. well liked to be warm heh"

"Yeah, they have a knack for being mean. I know one lady here that's terrified of snakes... give you two guesses to what she's turning into." Amaya then blinked and looked at her hand. "Oh! Uh..." Blushing a little, she removed her hand from his and put it back into the pocket of the hoodie.
She then finished the last bites of her salad and lifted up the hood to the sweater once again. The air conditioning seemed to get to her a lot quicker now. Her eyelids started to sag slightly and Amaya wished she could shiver, but knew that cold-blooded animals couldn't... all they did when they were cold was get lazy and tired.

Chubbs smiled a little at her blush, she was a little shy bout things, but not near as bad as him. He figured she misunderstood him about the hand.
" Just meant , ya know.. ya mighta wanted ya hand back, and umm, I thought I mighta been stoppin ya"
He watched her pull her hood up and realised how late it was.
" Heading back to ya room?"

"Yeah, I'd better. I can't stay in the air conditioning for long." Amaya stood up, her claws clicking on the tile floor. "Sorry about borrowing your sweater so much." She gave a nervous laugh and picked up her bowl with both hands, her long fingers wrapping around it. Despite how big they were, it was harder to hold stuff with them when she wasn't used to them yet... that and they were still a little sore.
After bussing her dish and silverware, she walked back over and gave Chubbs a small hug, her hands still making it a little awkward. "I'mma go get some shut eye... thanks for everything and take care, 'kay?" She smiled slightly and turned, leaving the cafeteria and heading back to her duplex for some basking and sleep.

Chubbs was surprised by the hug, and gave her a hug back, blushing lightly.
" It's um fine.. ya can look after my sweater for me"
He smiled and as she left, he looked to his books, grabbed then and stood, jogging after her to catch up and walk her home.

Chubbs sat a little slouchedd on a big couch in front of the large tv with controller in hand, even with his big hands he found the damn thing awkward. He hadn't played computer games much at all in the last few years, he barely could afford the tv he had. Chubbs mashed the buttons on the controller in quick succession, watching his fighter on the screen swing it's opponent around and send it flying over a balcony and onto the next level below.
Chubbs was playing a dead or alive 3 on the xbox with Bass and Tina Armstrong as partners, He liked Bass cuz of his size, and Tina because of her big set of...combos.

Awen opened the door to the Entertainment Room slowly. She really kept a bit to herself for the passed day. Worrying about things to come and whatnot.. Awen looked up from her feet finally and saw..oh.. someone was already playing.
She frowned a bit. She had been looking forward to some single player games, maybe her Sonic, on the Game Cube. It seemed like she had only been playing two player since she got to the island. But she shrruged and went towards the couch.
She flopped down besides Chubbs, her eyes on the screen the whole time. "Nice combo, I haven't seen that in succession in a long time." Come to think of it she hadn't played this game in forever anyway. She never much liked DoA games and she had only borrowed it from a friend back home.

Chubbs blinked suddenly and looked to Awen with a blush, he hadn't seen her come in till she sat down. He didn't realise he was getting walloped by his opponent on the screen, quickly turned back and flicked the pause button.
He caught his breath and finally looked back to Awen with a shy smile and blushing still a bit.
" Oh.. ummm thanks. Oh you umm need the tv? I can turn this off..'
Chubbs got himself up with a grunt and headed over to the tv and to the xbox.
