Re: The Soup Kitchen
The look of consternation on Bedlam's face is quickly replaced with a hearty laugh.
Bedlam's thoughts to the crew carry a mix of amused sarcasm. ~Nice work, scouts. And just because they are small, cute and fuzzy does not mean they are not dangerous.~
"Greetings, Big Tail," the giant slings the lamppost onto his back before moving forward, also open-handed, to meet the dabber. "It is always a good day when one is surrounded by... friends."
"I am particularly pleased," he continues, significantly eying the dabber cohort before returning his focus to the Big Tail. "That you recalled your pledge meet us on our way back to Compton. I would like to recognize our... friendship... with a few tokens."
"If I may?" Bedlam indicates he wants to get something from the cart.
When the Big Tail gives a nod, the giant goes back to the cart to retrieve a bulky parcel, wrapped in a singed and stained tablecloth. Bringing it forward, he sets it down in the road before the dabber and opens it. In addition to various electronic components and shiny kitchen utensils the jumbled pile includes the boss porker's flamethrower and several gas masks.
"And for you, especially..." Bedlam takes a small bundle from his belt. It clinks pleasantly in the palm of his large hand as he unties the string which binds it. Unfolding the cloth he reveals a half dozen unspent rounds from the porker gun platform, the lens of a security camera, and a small energy cell.
