[color=#F88017]“I am sorry again. I could get you the wet wipes if you are wanting them? I do not want you to be upset.”[/color] Esperanza’s words were earnest, even as the rest of what arm Chu could reach vanished deep into his maw. At the news that such behavior from her dearest friend wouldn’t be entirely approved within the city, her face fell into a frown, looking over to him with concern. 


[color=#F88017]“Oh. I did not know that people might not like that. I will put him away when we get closer to the city, I think. I do not want him to have to be hiding for too long, because he likes the sunlight.”[/color] With her free hand, Esp reached around, gently pushing against the chitinous bone on Chu’s belly. The effect was near instantaneous- with a horrible gagging, retching sound, Esp’s arm slid free of his maw, coating thickly in grey ooze. 

[color=#F88017]“Good boy.”[/color] She gently stroked him along his head, then wiped herself clean with some paper as she moved to follow Marcus. [color=#F88017]“That sounds very good to me. Do you think she will be liking me?”[/color] Esp made no attempt at hiding the enthusiasm in her voice whatsoever. Why should she? Excitement was hardly something to be ashamed of. She bounded happily after her new, strange companion, and promptly stopped in her tracks as another, particularly strange man stepped out of a...something? In front of them. A portal? A rip? She wasn’t particularly sure, but,

[color=#F88017]“That was incredible!”[/color] Esp grinned. Her eyes were wide, filled with genuine wonder. [color=#F88017]“What sort of magic was that? I like your birds very much, too. I have a bird, too, but he is very angry.”[/color] She paused at the man’s declaration, giving a puppyish tilt of her head. [color=#F88017]“Rectum? That does not make any sense. Chu is Chu. He is not the fox.”[/color] She nodded. Chu, from his perch on her shoulder, laughed.

Then vomited a plush fox toy onto the concrete before them, after a series of horrendous “hck” sounds and gagging. 

Black, beady eyes stared mournfully up at the sky.
