Note: There’s efficiency in dealing with multiple topics simultaneously as we are, I’m happy if you do try and fit them into a chronological narrative, (eg After spending a moment to assess Prrri, she will head back over to Kwint… ) but don’t feel you have to. If I feel sequence is important I may halt a thread while we deal with a dependancy. For example: https://sites.google.com/site/dominionspace/play/module-07-an-illuminating-journey/7-084illuminator-seniorstafflounge
Sartorial
Kwint makes a witty comeback about hoping to look hot rather than pretty.
Music
Jennie seems to prefer older material, some of it well before she was born. Lia can make the stylistic description whether she recognises the artists or not. Jennie picks one and puts it on.
NB: It’s not actually Glenn Millar’s ‘Tuxuedo Junction’ but that gives a feel for what she’s selected. Plus, the audio quality is waaaay better.
Cultural
Kwint frowns, “I never know what to do with him. He wants to join in, but he basically only eats raw meat, and in private. I’m not sure, but I think it’s like if we went to Felline and discovered their social gatherings revolved around all going to the toilet together and sniffing the results; I don’t think we’d be keen to join in either.”
Kwint gestures to a small refrigerator under the bench, “His food is all in here. Lizards, I don’t care if he eats his raw rats with us, but he might.”
“Um…, I really have no idea how to make something special for him. I’d like to…but the nuances of how one raw rat differs from another from the viewpoint of a giant cat is lost on me.”
Lia can convey the part about sitting without eating, but the special consideration doesn’t apply, as it’s beyond Kwint’s knowledge.
Would you like to reframe that part of her approach?
Irrespective, give me a Diplomacy roll, with +2 because of Lia’s Xenophilia.
Lia approves of Jennie’s music choice and will tell her so.
Let’s say she has the convo with Kwint and then tells Prrri everything except the bit about putting something aside for him. She will try and explain that the point is more about coming together to be social, rather than eating.
