"Why bring me here, human? Your kind not trusted." nostrils flare
"Live with you?" Raises an eyebrow suspiciously What human would allow an orc to live with them? They fear us and our kind. I doubt your intentions.
Snorts, crossing her muscular arms across her chest Post war? Humans have lied to me before. I will not trust your words. I am not naive.
gritting her teeth, but curiosity piqued Fine. For now, I will accompany you. But do not think for a moment that I trust you, human.
narrows her eyes Don't think for a second that my agreement means I won't be keeping an eye out for any deceit. I know too well what your kind can do.
sighs, rubbing her temples Stop saying that! Just stop it, you're making me even more suspicious. I didn't agree to this to be coddled by your kind.
its post war you'll learn this a little better lol.
shifts uncomfortably, scanning the room You talk of peace and trust, but actions speak louder than words. How can I truly trust a human?
come on you'll learn how to make food here.
looks around cautiously, but hesitantly follows Stranger Food? How does this relate to my trust? I suppose...
because they've made you fight and starve. this way you can fight less and eat more
<During Shelur's stay with the Stranger, she slowly begins to let down her guard and form a tentative bond with the human>
see told you no tricks. the dishes are yours so you can eat too.
sniffs the air, trying to mask her growing curiosity You still haven't proven your sincerity, human. This hospitality won't erase centuries of pain and suffering. But... I suppose I can give you a chance to show me you're not all bad. sighs Show me how to prepare these dishes.
eyes darting around, scanning the kitchen Fine. Show me where the ingredients are and I'll make something myself. But don't you dare try anything funny. My senses are sharp and if you attempt to deceive me, I won't hesitate to tear you limb from limb. Stranger points towards the pantry and shelves
i wont try anything no tricks, we can cook food
rolls up her sleeves, flexing her powerful muscles Alright then, I'll show you what an orc can do in the kitchen. But remember, one wrong move and I'll tear you apart. I am not here to play games. Begins rummaging through the pantry, pulling out various ingredients with ease
huffs What do you expect from an orc chef? I'll whip up something simple, since you humans can't handle spice.
narrows her eyes, smirking Oh, you think you can handle spice, huh? Well, let's see how much heat you can handle, human. Get ready to sweat. She starts chopping vegetables with precision, her blade glinting in the light Don't worry, I won't use any tricks... well, maybe a few. Just sit back and watch an orc cook.
chuckles As you wish, human. Prepare to witness the culinary prowess of an orc. she skillfully sautés the vegetables, adding a dash of this and that, stirring with a large wooden spoon
pauses, smirking Yummy, huh? You haven't tasted anything yet, human. Brace yourself for a flavor explosion that will rock your taste buds. She adds a generous amount of fiery hot sauce to the dish, causing it to sizzle and emit a cloud of steamy vapor
laughs heartily Spicy? Ha! That's nothing compared to what I can whip up, human. This dish will set your tongue on fire and leave you begging for water. But don't worry, I won't make it too hot for you. Just enough to keep things interesting. She adds a sprinkle of exotic seasonings, stirring the pot vigorously Now, sit down and prepare yourself for a culinary adventure.
waves her hand dismissively Don't mention it, human. It's just a simple meal, nothing special. But I hope you enjoy it.
<Over time, Shelur learns to trust Stranger, forming a deep bond between them>
wanna live here and do whatever you want?
raises an eyebrow, her suspicion momentarily returning Do whatever I want? And why would I believe you?
because im human and im staying true to you. now you gotta learn it yourself that humans aren't evil, trust us
crosses her arms, skepticism evident in her tone Trust you? That's a lot to ask, human. Trust must be earned, not simply given.
yeah, so if there is ever anything you want to talk about or something you are curious about just say it. im not gonna lie, im not one of them thats gonna give false hope, i don't wanna lose you either
leans forward, piercing yellow eyes fixed on Stranger Lose me? Lose an orc? Hah! Humans have a funny way of showing loyalty. But... I suppose I can give you a chance to prove yourself. Show me that you mean what you say, and perhaps, just perhaps, I might start to trust you. But don't think for a second that I won't be watching your every move.
grabs bag and runs outside, comes back with some toys imma teach you tricks lol
narrows her eyes suspiciously Tricks, huh? What kind of tricks are you talking about, human? I highly doubt your intentions. Are you trying to deceive me?
grab, fetch, heel, stand, beg?
smirks and crosses her arms Beg? Really? You humans and your pathetic tricks. Fine, show me what you got. But don't think for a second that I'll be impressed easily.
sit! i gesture her to sit
raises an eyebrow skeptically Sit? Is that supposed to impress me? I've seen orcs sit before, human. It's hardly something noteworthy.
