Kolita: What exactly are poor knights?
Anura: A old timey breakfast dish of sorts if I recall, sort of a french toast with jam deal.
Kolita: Huh.. appreciated.
Anura: Anytime.
Tiles: Think I’d settle for some tea and the egg skillet.
Gallows: Always a fun choice, while the base is consistent, many elements have to be adjusted on a daily basis to accommodate what options are on hand. Sometimes there’s cheese or peppers or bits of sausage in the mix.
Tiles: Sounds rather nice for a safehouse…
Gallows: Folks here believe everyone is welcome to a good meal for an affordable price. Not everyone has the means to cook, a big cold storage or the time to gather good ingredients every morning. The tea selection is also varied so you may have to ask. Shall we meet with the Chef?
Tiles: I’d love to.
Gallows: Follow me then..

You make your way over to a modest dining room with two long tables set up to allow for public dining… and a peculiar amount of vermin appear to be stalking on the ceilings above.
Gallows: Ah… one of these days.
Tiles: What do you mean by that? Is infestation a regular issue?
Gallows: Unfortunately more than anyone would like to admit.
???: No kidding, I swear it gets worse by the week around this time of year.
Your attention turns toward the rabbit behind the counter.
Gallows: The jammer isn’t scaring them off?
???: Did for a bit but the upkeep has been difficult lately. Supply chains are all struggling unfortunately and we can’t DIY without a few materials that are hard to gather. See our knight friend here is doing good enough to walk some.
Gallows: Would appear so.
The rabbit makes a friendly gesture to you.
???: Name’s Scab, nice to make your acquaintance. I’m amazed at how well you took that beatdown from the crown’s guards, made patching you up easy.
You return the gesture.
Tiles: Tiles.

Scab: Perfect. If you’re good with walking around, perhaps you’re good for a little work.
Gallows: She just got out of bed…
Scab: And? As her doctor I say if she’s willing then she’s fine for it.
Tiles: Fine for what if may ask?
Scab: Nothing that would be out of the ordinary for one like you. Need you to get the vermin out of here, do that without making a big mess and I’ll give you some favors.
Tiles: Define favors if you could.
Scab: We can’t really pay you unless you work here long term, but among the community we have a favor system. You volunteer? We allow you to use our services. Breakfast is one favor. I’ll offer you four if you manage to deal with these things. How you do it doesn’t matter as long as you keep the place intact.
Tiles: Could I cash those favors in at the community thrift and library? I’m curious about those.
Scab: A bulk of services there are free or quite cheap as is but if you’re the type who takes half a shelf home I suppose we can do that. Didn’t imagine you to be a thrifting type though.
Tiles: What do you mean?
Scab: The entire look you have going on. The playing card aesthetic, the plated dress.. It’s quite lovely, wouldn’t you say Gallows?
Gallows: Absolutely, stood out immediately.
Scab: Is that a custom job? Who’s your smith?
Tiles: Made it myself actually…
Scab: Cute. Bit of a craftsman myself, I can tell you put a lot of care into it. The structure allows the panels to secure each other with gravity but shift as you move.
Gallows: That’s a bit of an advanced technique, isn’t it?
Scab: Certainly is, didn’t you attempt something like this once or twice?
Gallows: Mm… it didn’t go great.
Scab: Maybe you could ask her for advice.
Gallows: I couldn’t bother someone I just met like that…
Scab: Won’t know if you don’t ask.
Gallows: You’ve mentioned being curious yourself, perhaps you should prompt it yourself?
Scab: Maybe….
Gallows: Suddenly shy?
Scab: As opposed to perpetual shyness?
Gallows: Touché…
You interject.
Tiles: We seem to be off topic right now.
Gallows: Sorry…
Scab: Likewise, we’ve gotten distracted. So what do you want to do from here?
