CUT TO: THE REALM OF IHIOSADORE

EXT. DEERFORD - EARLY NIGHT

DRAY AND TO̅MI PROCEED THROUGH THE CITY WHILE EATING ICE CREAM TOGETHER.

[Dray]

This ice cream is really good.

[To̅mi]

Holstaurs are known to have some of the best dairy products you will ever be able to find.

[Dray]

I wish that I could get her secret. This is better than any of the ice cream I've had back home. I wonder who the farmers are that she works with.

TO̅MI GLANCES AT SHADE WITH A SNICKERING EXPRESSION.

[To̅mi]

Don't tell me that you're unsure about where she gets the milk.

[Dray]

Well, I've never been here before. Why don't you stop laughing at me and just tell me? Should I be worried?

[To̅mi]

Honestly, I'm not sure. I mean, I'm not.

[Dray]

That's because you know and you're refusing to tell me.

[To̅mi]

It's... just sort of embarrassing.

[Dray]

And now I'm a little worried about finishing this.

[Dissenter]

I can help with that.

A DISSENTER WALKS PAST DRAY SLAPPING HIS ICE CREAM OUT OF HIS HAND. DRAY THEN GLARES AT THE DISSENTER WITH AN ANGRY EXPRESSION.

[Dray]

What the hell?

[Dissenter]

Filthy human! You don't belong here!

[Dray]

What the hell did you say?

THE DISSENTER STOPS IN HIS TRACKS AND TURNS TO FACE DRAY.

[Dissenter]

You heard what I said.

DISSENTER SEES THAT THE DISSENTER IS A LIZARDMAN AND CHUCKLES.

[Dissenter]

What's so funny?

[Dray]

Oh, nothing roach breath. I was just thinking about what you'd look like as a boot.

[Lizardman Dissenter]

What'd you say? You must not know where you are.

TO̅MI STEPS BESIDE DRAY WITH RED PUPILS.

[To̅mi]

No, he's exactly where he needs to be.

THE LIZARDMAN DISSENTER SHUDDERS SEEING TO̅MI'S ANGERED EXPRESSION.

[Lizardman Dissenter]

A d— day walker!

[To̅mi]

That ice cream was expensive. You should cough up some coin before I lose my temper about it.

THE LIZARDMAN DISSENTER PAYS TO̅MI AND BEGINS TO BACK AWAY.

[Lizardman Dissenter]

I'm sorry. I didn't know he was yours.
