Thank you! Honestly ... you have no idea how hard it is.

( Oh ... that pat to his back is nice! He likes that. And he definitely brightens at the other man's suggestion. )

Yes, good plan. I'm ready to de-stress by patting some animals. ( He'll pass a few glances over at the food, and then turn back to Aether. ) Do you happen to know the kind of animals they have here...? I also have no mora, by the way. Not a penny to my name. ( not that this place uses mora but...... he'll still call it mora. )
