Idiots in Charge

"Ahh I do love Parmesan on my pasta~" he chuckled, then hearing her reply to the pan question made a rather 'NOPE' look come to his face. While paying more attention to the conversation his tripped landing flat on his face.

"I'm okay!" he said quickly getting back up, rubbing where it hurt on his face, and attempted to catch back up to the others.

<sub>Crash was pretty happy to just listen to them. Oh yeah! He would get funny looks too as he dumped parmesan, salt and pepper in his bowl of pasta, but he wouldn't mention it, after all they were all in agreement that pasta is the food of the gods, anyway.

"Yeah, parmesan is epic~." He'd look back again as Anita mentioned wielding a pan as a weapon and he nodded. He put his hands on his hips and then puffed his chest, deciding to speak up.

"I should know that too. I was born and raised in Dula before living here. I pretty much lived in what I like to call the, 'Dulan School of Hard Knocks.'" He explained. "... The country is a nice tourist destination, though. City? Not so much."</sub>

[Deleted]

Pasta was, indeed, the food of the gods. Anyone that said otherwise had no sense of good taste. And mm... parmesan. Anita was highly in the mood for pasta right now, and would probably plow through any pasta dish given to her no matter exactly what it contained.

"Yep~." She giggled a bit at the expression on Thorn's face when she told him it was used as a weapon, but wiped it off quickly when he fell and got back up.

"Oh, be careful! Don't want you to hurt yourself!" Anita put her hands behind her back as Crash talked about where he had lived before. Dula, huh? She'd always heard rumors that it wasn't a pleasant place to live at all, and Crash's words were only confirming it.

"That doesn't sound like it would be a good place..." she frowned.

[Deleted]

Thorn only caught the last parts that conversation, unfortunately he knew little that, just the horror's of air pirates.

Thorn? hurt himself? kiddo you got no idea. "I'm fine Eheh~ I'm used to tripping" he weakly chuckled with a awkward smile as he rubbed his nose that still hurt.

He perked hearing her reply to Crash slightly wondering what he missed. "Which place?" he asked.

[Deleted]

<sub>Crash looked over to watch as Anita and Thorn exchanged words. Well, he needed to trip less before he got himself in the hospital. That can't be healthy, after all. He'd take a deep breath and then look over, seems like the conversation is over on that.

"Well, don't wind up in the hospital." he paused when Thorn asked where and he blinked. "Sataya. You know that big Dulan city. Full of crooks. Owned by a monopoly."</sub>

[Deleted]

Anita would be so amused if she knew that Thorn did silly things like that all the time, but she just smiled back at him as he rubbed at his nose. Well, with a long nose like that, it was no wonder that it hurt when he fell. It was impossible not to damage it. Well, as long as he didn't break his nose or any other body parts.

"Oh, I think I've heard of it, but I don't know too much. I haven't been there myself, though."

Probably for the best, Anita. She put her hands behind her back as they walked.

[Deleted]

Thorn? end up in the hospital? To late again, he just gave an awkward grin but that faded as Thorn just blinked in confusion, it was his first time hearing of this. "I've never really heard of this so..This is rather new to me" he replied joining beside the two.

"I haven't been outside this city much beside since I was child after...one time I'd rather not speak about." he nodded as if trying to figure out how to word that.

[Deleted]

<sub>Well, Crash was the first to tell them that, but he wouldn't give them any more details about how horrifying that company really was. He'd let the possible future wars pan that out. Either way, Crash was happy to walk with them and drool over the aspect of delicious pasta.

"Well, instead of thinking about bad things." He'd pat Thorn's back, probably a little bit too roughly. "Let's think about the good things! Like how awesome the three of us are?" Well, hopefully that worked.</sub>

[Deleted]

Anita would probably shake her head in both amusement and concern upon learning that he'd already ended up in the hospital. Dammit that wasn't good for a person! Either way, he didn't seem to know much, so Anita just shrugged.

"I barely know anything myself about it."

Thorn talked a bit about how he never left the city and that there were bad memories involved, but Crash was quite happy to try to snap them out of it. She giggled a bit as he said that the three of them were awesome. They were quite an odd lot compared to some people here, but odd things were nice!

"And the delicious pasta we're about to have?"

[Deleted]

Thorn could only chuckle at Crash's attempt, It did work though being it did make him smile. Indeed they where, then again Thorn seemed to have a few of 'odd' people he befriended... His brother included.

"We should almost be there yes~?" he cheerfully asked after Anita had asked about that. Did seem like they had been walking a bit. He glanced up at the sky as if looking to see how much time had passed.

[Deleted]

<sub>Crash added a little skip in his step as the others spoke up. Indeed he was too happy to forget about those incidents, and his stomach was already making noises as it begged for food to be stuffed in it. He then chuckled.

"Yeah we're nearly there. I'm getting hungry!" Well that was obvious. The poor kid was a voracious eater, and could eat almost anything. Despite his short stature, either way.

"So I work as a demolition expert here in Truesdale now. I gotta say, the stuff they make me do is actually pretty boring. Like clear out streets and wait for things to happen. I only got to legally blow up one thing."</sub>

[Deleted]

Anita would skip as well, but these shoes did not make for a skip at all. So she continued to walk, trying not to trip in the shoes and dress. It wouldn't do at all for her to fall in front of these two, though if they were gentlemen they would likely try to help her up. Either way, it looked like the pasta place was close.

"Mmhm, we're almost there. Just a little bit more!"

She placed her hands behind her back, listening as Crash talked about his work as a demolition expert. Ah, okay. That made sense for someone like him. She thought.

"You mean actually lighting the fuse?"

[Deleted]

Thorn smiled listing to them and that they where close, it became somewhat interested in hearing Crash talk about his job. It sounded rather interesting indeed but the noise level would be way to much for his liking.

"That does sound rather interesting, I haven't meet someone that worked in that kind of feild before." he chuckled.

[Deleted]

<sub>Crash looked over. Well, he wasn't that special, aside from the 'nearly dying in Dula' department. When Anita spoke up, he chuckled and nodded, though... had to correct her.

"Nah we actually use levers. Keeps us at a farther and safer location so shrapnel doesn't take our heads off. It's a pretty deadly job, I tell ya." Well, that's the most interesting thing he could talk about in terms of his jobs. "Hope I don't have to destroy any of the buildings you live in!"</sub>

[Deleted]

Upon finally reaching the pasta shop, Anita went to open the door unless either Crash or Thorn decided to be a gentleman and open the door for her. She continued to listen to Crash as he spoke about his job, interested.

"I haven't either," she said in response to Thorn. Demolition people were usually not the sort of people that would come looking for extremely fancy shoes, in her experience, so it was natural for her. "Well, you're still alive, at least!"

She had to giggle when he joked about destroying buildings that they lived in. "If I suddenly find my shop in ruins and rubble all around me, I'll know who to blame first, then!" she joked.
