Given that Tal had also liked to go to different places as a kid, he could only grumble under his breath while he continued to haul on the cart. Maybe it was possible that Mateo was exactly what he said he was...
Or maybe he was just really good at pretending to be what he said he was!
...But Boreal didn't seem worried and Tal just heaved a resigned sigh. Helpful as ever, she glanced over her shoulder and then ambled back to the side of the cart and staaared at the walking palm, which paused in its subtle trek for freedom and seemed to think better of it, at least for the moment.
"Uh... I mean. Really fuckin' hot." Would a kid get that? Ehh... this is why Tal avoided children. "Pretty laid back, too. I liked 'em a lot. They're intense but not like... scary about it." Pretty down to earth, one might even say. "Why'd y'have to channel before?"
Ahead, the sound of flowing water gurgled faintly and Tal perked up, heading towards it with his precious cargo.
