not that I know of, just regular humans
but apparently my mom gave birth to horned kids for some reason

[peoplewatch]

It must not have been easy then, growing up like that. People don't take well to whatever might be different from them.

[ He's wondering now if she's part monster, the same way he used to think he might be part monster because of his eyes. ]

[saudadist]

[ He's preaching to the choir, really, but she doesn't want to be sarcastic about it. ]

yeah
it can be rough for those who are like that

[peoplewatch]

But the people here seem to celebrate their differences. Has it been easier here?

[saudadist]

much
it's a relief, honestly, but also weird sometimes
I can actually enjoy the little things humans take for granted

[peoplewatch]

That's good to hear. What would those be?

[saudadist]

good food, consistent shelter, a warm bed, hot baths, people who will actually talk to you

just to name a few

[peoplewatch]

I enjoy talking to you. There's a lot of the city I haven't seen yet. Which is your favourite place?

[saudadist]

the animal cafes
it's hard to pick just one

they have some where you can play with hedgehogs, cats, dogs, and sometimes even domesticated mice

1/2

[peoplewatch]

[ as someone from AD 500, he cannot for the love of him understand why anyone would want to eat with mice. ]

[peoplewatch]

I'd like to visit these places. Will you go with me?

[saudadist]

[ Hrm, dangerous. The guy's already danced with her and now he wants to hang out? At a cafe? Like a date?

Maybe...that won't be so bad. Maybe. He's nice. ]

sure

I know a puppy cafe that'd be best
the dogs there are well behaved and sweet

[peoplewatch]

[ dogs are fine. he doesn't want to dine with rats. ]

Sounds good. Do you have any time today?

[saudadist]

[ just wait until you meet a domestic rat that pack bonds with you, Kabru ]

Today?

[ Wait that's soon! Very soon!!

Although, she absolutely has nothing else to do since her primary hobby is being a layabout. ]

give me like
an hour

[peoplewatch]

[ extroverts harassing introverts with their spontaneous socialising as always. ]

Okay. I'll see you soon! We could meet at the cafeteria, perhaps.

[saudadist]

that's the easiest to find, not a bad idea
I'll see you there then

[peoplewatch]

[Not that it takes very much to make Kabru go out and meet someone, but her reserved and shy attitude reminds him a lot of Rinsha. For that reason, he finds it rather endearing and wants to spend more time with her. It helps that he relates to her, also being born different from his family. Kabru will wait for her at the cafeteria and give her a friendly wave when she shows up. Keeping up with the styles here, he's dressed rather comfortably in a form-fitting shirt and jeans. ]

Kaede!

[saudadist]

[ The way she's actually ready much faster than she claimed is laughable, and she'll die before she lets it be known. Throwing together the outfit was the easiest part. Dress comfortably since it's not(!) a date! Sort of. And for her, this summer weather means "comfortable" translates to a gray newsboy cap, a white, long-sleeved loose fit crop top, a pair of oversized beige cargo pants cinched in place with a good belt, and slightly worn jogging shoes.

She gets there first, but she doesn't want to look like she's been waiting so she doesn't lean against the wall. Or do much of anything past shove her hands into her pockets to keep from fidgeting. ]

Oh...hey. Just in time.
