Oh, its a place of a lot of grasslands, so fields as far as the eyes can see...and then we also have rather steep mountains, too, to the west. It's a very pretty place...but it's been a long time since I've been home.
I left my kingdom to become an adventurer, and also to...do something important. I never went back, not because I didn't want to, just...it just never happened.
[The pool! Molly spots it and starts taking his extravagant coat off, just throwing it over his arm instead - before he gets to the poolside and then sitting down on the ground to start unlacing his very, very tall boots.]
Not that I really have one. But you get the point.
[Sometimes, you can't go home again. Yanking his boots off, setting to them the side one by one.]
Mm. Not exactly either of those things. Suppose home was with the Carnival for a while, wherever we'd pull to the side of the road for the evening, or had the tent set up outside whatever the next backwater village was. And then once that was done, it's the nearest campfire, or the shitty inn the Nein can scrap the silver together for. And for now, it's here. Spring dorm.
[Pulling his shirt over his head now. He has a a fuckload of tattoos. And then, mercifully, he keeps his pants on, standing up, crossing his arms over his chest and flops backwards into the pool. Wow.]
[He's aware they're flashy. I think not pictures are the red eyes scattered among them, one in the eye of the pyramid, another on the back of his head where the snake head is. There's more scattered about but it depends on how gay he's being. This seems to be part of the appeal for Molly. Grinning, all sharp teeth.]
Only thing that would make this better is if I could find a single fuckin' drink in this place.
[Feeling awkward standing, Mandricardo moves to sit cross-legged by the edge of the pool, kind of exuding that nervous dog energy where he's unsure whether to join Molly or whether he is not cool enough to join him.]
[Either way, terrible I have to say this, but this is nice to look at.]
...Yeah. I kinda feel that. A good drink calms the nerves...a bit...
[Says a guy who looks like he's only just hitting the drinking age.]
[Look, as long as he's aware it's being welcomed, he'll do it. There's a pause, before he pulls off his shoes, then his socks, then rolls up his pants. He is wearing just the black pants and collared shirt of his class uniform I am NOT going through the bs that is his actual outfit.]
[He schooches forward, before dipping his feet in - ooh, a bit cold at first - before letting them dangle.]

[He says, almost murmuring it to himself. Mandricardo follows, before standing awkwardly at the pool's edge next to Molly.]
You don't have a home? As in...you don't know, or you left it behind for a new one?
