WHO: ICE BEAR and SASHA
WHERE: Residence #012, Heropa.
WHEN: A little after this.
WHAT: Bears.
WARNINGS: None, but will edit if necessary. (WHICH I DOUBT...)

[ Most people would not immediately jump to meet a complete stranger, one who was searching for bears apparently, who also made vague promises of cooked meals. No, most people would likely steer far, far away from the possibility the person on the other end was presumably a murderer or something just as terrible.

Sasha is not most people.

Without having checked on the other conversations this "Ice Bear" fellow has had on the network, she teleports over to Heropa Residence #012 after putting on her shoes. The idea of free food entices her to the point she's got horse blinders on, but she wasn't lying when she said she knew where other bears were. There are bears all over Florida, so all she needs to do is take him somewhere and once he's seen a bear or two she'll get her free food. Simple as that, right?

She rings the doorbell. ]

[Well. This is probably going to end in disappointment all around. No bears = no food. Sorry, friendo.

But as of right now, Ice Bear has high hopes for Sasha's intel. She's the only person who seems to have seen a bear outside of a zoo, so she's his best lead and he's staying positive.

He's waiting at the door for her, so when the bell rings the door is open seconds later. Who/what answers the door is maybe (or maybe not) surprisingly be not a bear. At least, not right now. For now, just a human.

Ice Bear doesn't say anything. Just stares at Sasha expectantly and waits. Lead on to the bears, human.]

[ At the very least he avoids a young woman screaming in his face and then drawing a bow and arrow on him.

She didn't expect him to be waiting at the door, so when he opens it immediately Sasha is startled for a quick second or two before she recovers. She smiles brightly at him, stepping back to allow him room to pass. ]

Um, hello! Are you Ice Bear?

[If Ice Bear at all registers her surprise he doesn't show it, nor does he smile back when she composes herself. Maintaining the same non-expression he simply answers he question with a nods and steps outside.

This bear's got no time for small talk, so instead of exchanging pleasantries he gestures down the front steps, urging Sasha to start leading the way.]

Uh...

[ The lack of response from him is concerning, so she stays put for a moment trying to figure him out. He did use text on the network... maybe he can't speak? She gestures to her throat. ]

Can you talk?

[He gives another nod. Yes, he can talk. Is he going to? No.

And honestly, Ice Bear doesn't see the point to this question. It's taking away from valuable brother finding time and he's starting to get anxious to get moving. He makes the same gesture down the steps again.]

[ This is weird... but it's not as if she's never had to deal with non-verbose types. She doesn't move any further, however, holding her hands up to indicate she needs to say something. ]

We don't have to walk all the way. I can teleport us.

[ Although recalling certain reactions in the past, she doesn't make another move just yet. ]

Uh, is that okay? You might be dizzy at first.
