Hello, fellow wanderers!
[ This broadcast is coming to you from the kitchen table in what used to be Lalli and co's house, but has now fallen into Rhys's hands. No, there's nothing very interesting to see, just a window behind him. No snooping for you. ]
I've found myself the sole inhabitant of a huge house. It has five bedrooms, one of which is mine, two bathrooms, a big kitchen and living area, and I thought, you know, it's ridiculous for me to live here all by myself. So! If anyone would like to move out of their assigned housing, there's lots of space here. I can give you a tour if you're interested.
Just a ... sliiight caveat. You probably need to like animals. Like, need to, 'cause there's a lot of them. A few cats, two dogs, and also chickens and sheep. Actually, does the farm want some chickens and sheep? I wonder if Reynir would be really sad if I gave his animals away ...
[ The last part is mostly muttered to himself, as he frowns for a moment, but the next it's gone, replaced by his clearly winning smile. ]
Anyway! Let me know! S-somebody please help me with these animals. They're so many.
[ SO MANY. ]

[He doesn't Trust God Housing for...nebulous reasons. But he's also been slumming it for several months now, so.]

[Not a ton of experience with animals, but that's not a dealbreaker.]
text
[ Look, he likes being busy and all, but it's so much. ]
Do you want to come see for yourself? Or should I give you a video tour?
text
directions?
text
[ And he'll get the details. ]

[Since, you know, Jet's not actually staying anywhere.]
text -> action
[ Plenty to do outside of the house. Before settling on the porch, though, he goes to check on the chickens and sheep. Then he takes the dogs and a few toys and sits down on the staircase, throwing a ball and playing some tug-o-war. ]
action
[Doesn't mean it didn't suck.]
Home alone?
action
If Jet isn't going to bring it up, though, then neither will he.
Jet catches him in the middle of a tug-o-war with the puli dog that used to be Tuuri's. But he looks up for long enough to offer a smile in greeting. ]
Yeah. Everybody who used to live here are gone.
[ He says it nonchalantly enough even if he wouldn't claim that he's not ... sad. But maybe it's for the best. Lalli and company disappearing did a number on Klaus. At least this way he doesn't have to miss them.
Or maybe that's worse. ]
action
[No wonder he's asking for roommates. Jet has no idea who else lived here, if anyone. He regards the dog patiently for a moment, seemingly contemplative, before finally answering.]
This happen recently?
action
[ He lets the dog have the toy, finally, and stands up. ]
Well. This is the yard. Kind of where the animals hang out most of the time.
action
[He regards the yard slowly, taking it in.]
Even the chickens?
action
Uhh, yeah? Where else would they be?
action
[He's never owned a cat before. He's never owned any pets before. But...you know, he knows how the whole predator and prey thing works. Lived in the desert all his life and such.]
action
[ Well. Where he comes from everything kind of hunts everything but. ]
I don't know. We haven't had any problems.
no subject
Who'd they belong to?
no subject
[ And there she is: The hen that decided to claim Rhys as her own when the animals first appeared in Asgard, running over to hop onto his shoes.
He points down at it. ]
This one. This one's mine. Not my choice, but she kind of grew on me. Hi, Gortys.
no subject
[And he'd been wondering why he hadn't seen Klaus around in a little bit. That'd be an easy, obvious answer right there. The other two, he doesn't know.]
Gortys?
no subject
Oh, it's the name of a, uh ... tiny adorable robot I met back home.
[ Not the first name the chicken had but, well, he's sure she wouldn't mind him using her name for a chicken that's very attached to him. ]
