Yep. They're gonna stay that way, too. I don't trust a single one of you with my face. [...] I could be a cat named Wrath. It's not out of the realm of possibility!

[chevaleros]

Mm, yes, I'm sure.

[ she sounds doubtful. ]

But that's quite hurtful, you know. [ meanwhile, she does not sound hurt. ] Does that mean your face is secret for a reason?

[probe]

There's a reason.

[they grab another sandwich and shove it in their mouth.]

[chevaleros]

[ she allows them to consume however many sandwiches they'd like, as a treat/bribe. ]

One you can't tell me, or won't? I suppose I'll just have to try and earn your trust.

[probe]

Won't, but you keep feeding me sandwiches and you might find that changes.

[they hum.] Are these for bribing the Avatars, or were you just, uh, hungry?

[chevaleros]

Bribery, mostly.

[ she admits cheerfully, shameless. ]

But I also like to practice making food. As convenient as the vending machines are, I want to keep my skills sharp. And I don't trust anyone here to prepare food for me yet.

[ it could be poisoned, or also just... terrible. there's maybe like, three people she thinks might be able to cook here. ]

[probe]

[they snort.]

Hey, honesty is the best policy, probably. Or something. [shrug.] That's uh, that's good though. Don't let anybody make food for you.

[chevaleros]

So you say, while you're eating food I prepared.

[ but they're perfectly innocent sandwiches, this time. ]

Do you think someone would be brazen enough to poison me?

[probe]

Oh, please. Please poison me. I wish I were dead.

[mouth full of sandwich.] Also, yes.

[chevaleros]

[ idly: ]

You shouldn't speak with your mouth full.

[ gross? anyway. ]

To eliminate their competition? [ not that it's exactly competition, but a close enough analogy considering she doesn't know the exact mechanics in play here. ]

[probe]

Some people might think there's competition to eliminate, sure.

[they do not stop talking with their mouth full.]

[chevaleros]

[ wrath if you were not an avatar with fire powers she would smack you ]

Seems a bit foolhardy to do so before we even know how everything works here.

[ not that she's against murder, per se. ]

[probe]

[they're an avatar they can do whatever they want nyeh]

You think this group is against foolhardy?
