Oh no he's back for more

[So Benny's still in Wankerville. By now, he's getting a better grasp of what's going on and what to expect. This isn't just because he's spoken to Shelly and Tori; it's because he found a certain convenient book. It's titled "Welcome to Wankerville, Random Nexus Facts For Dummies".

That's not the only thing he's found.

Right now, he's sitting on the front steps of one of the houses, playing with four kittens. He's not sure where their mother is, but he does know they were incredibly hungry when he stumbled across them. Luckily, they seem to about four or five weeks old, so they accepted meat scraps just fine. He fed them and now he's stuck with them. Not that he minds, of course. He enjoys their company. Shoe was already a fully-grown, lazy tomcat when Benny got him, so the opportunity to play with actual kittens is new to him.]

...is it common to name cats after things like that?

[She honestly wouldn't know.]

Mama likes naming cats after cookies and wafers, but...

[Cookies and wafers... Who else does he know who's like that?]

Cats can have all sorts of names. From footwear to wafers to human names. It all comes down to the preference of the owner.

Mama must really have a preference for cookies and wafers, then. [She laughs softly, mostly to herself.] It's a little strange, since Daddy's the big cookie fan...

[And also the one who slips the kids cookies when Tori says no. Who knows where Mithos stands on that?]

Perhaps she chose the cookie names to appeal to your father's love for cookies.

[... Would Matt Engarde have had a love for shoes? No, that makes no sense. Knowing Matt Engarde, he either thought it was cute or he was high off his rocker. ... Matt Engarde was such an asshole. Benny never even met the guy, but he's sure of it.]

...Mama's the type of person who would do that, I think. She's sentimental like that, and she really loves Daddy a lot.

[And Papa. Sometimes she wishes she didn't have to waltz around all these details. She has two fathers and one mother, they all love each other very much and they love their kids.

...if only it weren't for her elven blood...]

[Hearing words like that, it rather makes Benny wonder what it'd be like if he'd had two parents. His father wasn't such a sentimental person, though. It'd be hard to picture him with a woman. ...Or a man, for that matter. That'd be even worse to picture.]

Is that so? It sounds like you have a wonderful family.

I do. We all love each other a lot. It almost makes up for not knowing many other people...

[Though because Faith and herself have gained a curiosity toward the world outside their comfortable home, there's been a bit of tension from within it as of late.]

[Tisk tisk. She'd better watch her wording more carefully around Benny, because he picked up on that one.]

Almost?

[...she said too much. Said too much to this person, who is probably human. Oh no, oh no...]

W-What I mean is that it would be nice to know other people, that's all...
