It was simple, it wasn't too emotional, but it felt personal and overall enjoyable. "[color=00aeef]I wouldn't mind listening to some Beatles again. It's been too long.[/color]" Now that the old dentist thought about it, he isn't sure he's listened to any proper music since the world fell. Sure there was the karaoke while they were isolated, but he wasn't sure if that counted. There would be music tonight and he wondered how that would go, what they would play. It was exciting! "[color=00aeef]Teeth problems are no joke. Not at all. Most of dental work is preventative. Sure there are measures to deal with things if they get worse, but even those are preventative. If they don't have what I need, I can improvise, but trying to do things properly would be a lot harder.[/color]" He shuddered, like the thought of the things he had to prevent as a dentist were some of the worst things he had ever seen. "[color=00aeef]Though with that in mind, if they don't have what I need, I would be more then willing to go out and find it myself. If they are willing to go some distance I am willing to bet my old facilities are semi intact. Sure the drugs are probably gone by now in the dead calmed down in the area, but it was the edge of the city so who knows?[/color]" He shrugged finishing his dinner. Manny wasn't sure why, but Alexander explaining that he also didn't end up having kids through his life helped reassure him. It was a little thing, but for many people it was just something that many people were unable to do. When Alexander asked about party plans Manny stopped in his moment of thought. "[color=00aeef]In terms of the party, hoping to take a chance to get to know the locals. Not sure I'll do much partying though. Never been a party person.[/color]" Manny said despite the fact that his youth he considered himself to be a different person. Though those parties when he was a teenager either led to everyone getting wasted and smashing some windows, or someone getting the shit beaten out of them. Then the cops would come, and Manny would be forced to answer to his father. "[color=00aeef]I don't expect to stay out too long though. You have anything special you want to do tonight?[/color]" He finished his food, and was ready to return his dishes. If Alexander decided he was ready to leave Manny would follow him out.

She would put up with a leash, but she never seemed to like it. He understood the logic though. Didn't mean he liked it though. Her comments about comparing the rules here to gated communities before everything went to hell got a confused face off Hunter. "[color=00a651]That could be true. I have heard a lot of shitty things about Home Owners Associations.[/color]" His family living on a scrap yard growing up in the middle of nowhere, he never really had to work with groups like that. Though he heard things with his mom about that. She had more experience then probably anyone else in his family. "[color=00a651]I have never heard of a gated community restricting access to the area outside of it like a prison. And if they do leave isolating them for months on end.[/color]" Hunter was playing it off as a joke. But he didn't think the comparisons were fair. They were under a minor form of martial law. "[color=00a651]Or when and where you can eat. Especially not in your own home.[/color]" It was a joking tone still, but he had a point he wanted to show. "[color=00a651]But whatever, I am here now. With no plans to leave in the near future.[/color]" He left out the part where he would have most likely left the same time as Beatrice and Victor if he was allowed to leave with Izibell. On what terms, who knows. He also had a lot to say about the lack of independence they were allowed here. At least of what he has heard so far. Even killing one of the dead ones wasn't allowed. He found that funny. Sure, taking stupid risks was stupid, but he found the punishment silly. But he would keep those thoughts to himself for now. "[color=00a651]Wait, are you also telling me I gotta keep the grass at a steady and level height of 1.2 inches? Shit. I forgot to get a lawnmower.[/color]" Hunter even though he wasn't a fan of the long list of rules here, still wanted to poke fun at everything. It distracted him from the areas he was annoyed with. The talk of Izibell for dinner was an all familiar one. Though that time he didn't have a joke to follow it up. For people who seemed desperate, he could look away from it. From those who didn't seem desperate... He normally had words to say. Hunter rarely found himself with people for long except the worst kinds of them. "[color=00a651]Yeah... Easier to restrict the pet.[/color]" He took note of Nikki calling out to Thana, the girl who seemed like she got taken apart piece by piece and put back together so she could promptly beat the shit out of the fool who decided it was a good idea to only take her apart and not finish the job. When Nikki pulled him on to keep them moving Hunter turned and asked her a question. "[color=00a651]So what's the deal with that girl? She seems to know everyone here, and everyone in quarantine. To my understanding, no one there was from this group before?[/color]" It honestly felt like despite everyone coming in as several groups, everyone seemed to know each other except Hunter. Sure the individual groups made sense, but damn. Everyone? "[color=00a651]I got that she is related to the General that runs this place, but still. Damn. Was she famous before all of this?[/color]" It was a legitimate question. Hunter never followed celebrities. That was something his siblings did more. He was too busy working, sucking at school, and finding new and creative ways to break shit growing up.
