Parthenope's Rock,
George pouts slightly."I'm trying not to be gross." As he gently puts the bones on a side plate and wipes hands on a napkin. "See."
Resisting the plate for a bit, he leans back and stares at her cooly. "Your 'friends' don't always do so well, do they, Ms Vargus? So..acquaintance is just fine." Then he laughs, unable to match Lysettes amazing poise, arrogant though it is.
"An acquaintance who will wash that car...clothed...for lifts to wherever we investigate."
Pulling a pen and worn notebook from his bag, he flicks past a shopping list, to an empty page and starts writing. His penmanship is far nicer than the notebook deserves.
"So...what do we know?"
"Magic robots."
"Non magic runes, and a fae trap."
"Something stolen.and ..L merto probably questioned before dying."
"Willing to use magic explosions to cover things up...but didn't do it that well.."
He taps the pen against his teeth thinking.
"So...how do you build and power magic windup toys? Could be some autoshop is needed? And what do you all know about magic traps, artificing, or rune scribbles?"
The waitress goes to remove the leftover bones, and Geroge puts his hand over it. "Nooope. Saving them for a doggy bag."
She laughs, little horns bobbing in mirth. "Yeah puppy, I figured. Gunna pop 'em in a foil wrap for yer."
