TAKSHAKA

[soulping]

[There’s room for seven in this weather-worn hut, with seven chairs around a table long enough for seven people.

The center of the table is adorned with wooden jugs of water and wooden snack bowls. It’s primarily fruits and nuts, although there are a couple brimming with Unidentified Raw Meat.]

Do you remember when I first got here?

[barrette]

How could I forget?

[experiencepoints]

Swan was pissed because I wasn't whoever was here before, started going on that I wasn't really a member of the team. And ever since then, he's been looking down on me whenever he has the slightest reason. He's annoying, and he manages to be so full of himself while self-deprecating, so what's that say about how he thinks of everyone else?

[barrette]

Why didn't you bring this up before? We could have worked something out between you and Swan!

[experiencepoints]

Because he's a pain in the ass and I don't have any interest in 'working something out'.

[barrette]

He's still our teammate, and we need to work together.

Actually, that's what I hate about Takshaka: Some of us are really dumb about working together and getting along!

[experiencepoints]

And by 'some of us' you mean me and Swan.

[barrette]

No just you two. Rosella can be kinda dumb about that kinda thing.

[experiencepoints]

She'll get better.

[barrette]

And so will you, and Swan. If you're willing to work to get better.

[experiencepoints]

I'd rather not work.

[barrette]

That doesn't mean you won't work!

[experiencepoints]

It might.

[barrette]

Promise me you'll work on it.

[experiencepoints]

...

Fine.

[barrette]

Thank you! I was worried you would say no!

Because you do that a lot.

[experiencepoints]

I'm only saying yes because we need the point.

[barrette]

I'm still going to hold you to it.

[experiencepoints]

We'll discuss it more then.
