[color=7bcdc8]"Just a reminder, Hueco, we're here as diplomats, not researchers."[/color] June says calmly, then looks to the plant-man sheepishly. [color=7bcdc8]"That being said, a lot of what we will see here will be new to us, so I hope you don't take it as us being rude. We're part of the Universal Machine, after all. Being curious is in out nature."[/color]

Looking the unhooded Amalgamate in the eye, June can't help but have her eyes wander curiously around the vine-laden face. [color=7bcdc8]~Is this normal? A plant based amalgamate? I guess that could be the effect of a stone rune, that's the closest type of magic I can think of to plants.~[/color]

Not wanting to seem hypocritic by staring herself, her gaze wanders off the Amalgamate's face, and onto the inside of the elevator they were in. It was in good working order, to be sure, but the technology they used here was at least a decade behind what June was used to back in Ammonia Avenue. There was some appeal, however, to the antique look of the gears that she could tell weren't formed by a machine, the welds that were obviously done by hand, and the occasional small jostle while they were moving up. It felt almost quaint, like a bunch of primitives pulling together their imitations of advanced technology to try and impress emissaries from the big city. [color=7bcdc8]~Well, that's a thought I should definitely keep to myself.~[/color]
