Hey, listen up. I’ve got an idea.

[Evidently a very important one, judging by how soberly he’s speaking.]

Obviously we need things to do in between gettin’ set on fire and havin’ our heads messed with. So I was gonna set up a card table in the bar—could be poker, faro, anything if we can get enough players for it. If people like it, we could make it a regular thing.

If you don’t know how to play, I’ll teach you. And if anybody knows any other games, I’d like to see ‘em.

[He shakes his head.]

Not a clue, but he’s soundin’ pretty weird already.

[circumitus]

He looks like someone you'd be more prone to shoot on sight than have a friendly chat with. Actually, almost cracked his face with a shovel after digging him up from a grave, few months back.

[Not one of Rey's more civilized moments.]

[foundafamily]

…And he wants to live with you after that why?

[circumitus]

Not clocking him over the head with a shovel probably helped?

[Le shrug. Honestly, it's a mystery even to her.]

[foundafamily]

Hey, I’ve not-hit plenty a’ people, and that still didn’t make ‘em my best friends.

[circumitus]

Well, it just turns out that we've a lot in common. Once you get past the more obvious differences.

[That being the fact that Rey doesn't look like she's literally falling apart.]

[foundafamily]

Like what? He trigger-happy with the shovel too?

[Rule one of friendship: Never let go of something you can tease them about.]

[circumitus]

...

[While she could go on and explain to him that they're both machines in their own different ways, she's stuck on one minor detail:]

No, because shovels don't have triggers.

[foundafamily]

[Really, Rey? Really?]

...Is he as nit-picky as you?

[circumitus]

[Really.]

Probably.

[Well, he is a detective, so chances are he is pretty keen on details.]

[foundafamily]

Great, then it sounds like you guys’ll have lots of fun together.

You know I was makin’ fun of you, right?

[circumitus]

Now that's not a very nice thing to do, is it?

[Come on, Firo. You don't just tell people you're making fun of them!]

[foundafamily]

Hey, it’s just what friends do to each other.

[circumitus]

...

Makes sense.

[Rey isn't much better sometimes with people she would consider her "friends".

[Then she pauses, glancing out the window of her new place.] Can see you outside, by the way.
