CLEARLY FOUR THREADS ISN'T ENOUGH

[semper_cogitans]

[Beast! Robert will pick his way over to his gargantuan furred friend the moment he gets a chance, smiling gently at him.]

Ah, hello, Beast...

... H-How are you...? [Hopefully he's not the only hideously nervous person here.]

SOON TO BE THREE THREADS THOUGH apparently?

[tailasoldastime]

[Oh no... no, Robert, you definitely are not... but oh he is relieved to see you.]

H-hello... I... I-I'm... a-alright? [Please tell him what he's in for, he has no idea.]

PROBABLY even though I love your threads :'>

[semper_cogitans]

[Robert is relieved to see a familiar face too. The amount of people that he doesn't know is really getting to him...]

... I... I am a-alright myself...

...

... Though, er, there are... qu-quite a few individuals here...

Awwww me too <3

[tailasoldastime]

[He nods in response, looking around him awkwardly.] I... y-you're the only one I... r-really know. [Except Obi-Wan, but he... wasn't too helpful with explaining to him what he's here for.]

Eeee. ;3;

[semper_cogitans]

Then I would be... g-glad to assist you, if you w-would wish... [He knows that feeling - it was all-too-common back on Terra, when there would be meetings and the only professor he knew was Brooke.

Though that has subtly different undertones but he wouldn't know them.]

[tailasoldastime]

It... [However unsure he feels, the response relieves him enough to provide a tiny smile.] I-I would.

[semper_cogitans]

Wh-where would you... like me to start, then...? H-Helping you, er, get acquainted...? [This isn't a similar environment, and maybe there's technology here the Beast hasn't gotten used to yet. Indeed.]

[tailasoldastime]

I... [Acquainted... is definitely not what he is with these things, so he's going to give Robert a solid nod.] Y-yes.

[semper_cogitans]

In that case... hrm... w-would you wish for me to... e-escort you to the food table...?

[Food is the great equalizer. And he can go from there.]

[tailasoldastime]

I...

[Oh why not. Beast can't say no to food!] Alright.

[semper_cogitans]

Ah... then please f-follow me... [Flashing a nervous smile before ducking his head, Robert turns to pick his way over to the food table for what must have been the half-dozenth time. He's starting to feel like one of the automated guidance systems that shows transport pods where to go...]

[tailasoldastime]

[He definitely does follow, eyeing what's on the table as soon as he can see it. Some of that looks really good...]

[semper_cogitans]

[Some of it even Robert can't identify.]

... To be... e-entirely honest, sometimes I... wonder what sorts of foods o-other people deem as... edible.

[tailasoldastime]

[He looks at Robert questionably.] "Edible"? [But it's on the "food" table, isn't it?]

[semper_cogitans]

[Yes, but that doesn't make it look like food.]

Well... does s-some of this truly... resemble food...?

[tailasoldastime]

[He turns back and looks... actually, some of that looks quite different from food he's used to... what... what can he even call that?]

Uh... n-no... n-not all... b-but if it's food, then... [Then truly it's good to eat, right...?]

[semper_cogitans]

[... Hopefully...]

I am, er, n-not certain if I... trust it...

[Cue Robert poking awkwardly at a gelatinous blob of melted cheese on one nacho.]

[tailasoldastime]

[He slowly looks at the indicated food... well, when he points it out like that, it's a little hard not to see how that can be... ugh...

He is starting to lose his appetite now, thank you Robert.]

[semper_cogitans]

[Sorry, Beast. Robert is just as uncomfortable as you are, if it helps...]

... At least s-some of this looks... decidedly edible...?

[tailasoldastime]

De... d-decidedly...?

[semper_cogitans]

... Well, m-moreso than... others.

For example... [Robert gestures to some popcorn.] ... This.

[tailasoldastime]

[His eyes widen at these strange white flakey things. How can he even tell if those are "decidedly" edible?] Wh-what are those?

[semper_cogitans]

... I believe they are called... "popped corn"... or, er, p-popcorn for short...

... S-Simply put, they are... superheated k-kernels of corn that have... expanded. Very light, and... l-low in calorie content... they are, er, g-generally flavoured somehow, with salt or other additives.

[tailasoldastime]

Hmmm... [He cautiously picks up one of them. "Light", he says... and low in "calorie content", whatever that is. He looks back at Robert; are you sure it's alright to try this?]

[semper_cogitans]

[Robert gives a reassuring nod, and then, to further drive home the point, takes a handful of the popcorn himself.

Om, nom.]
