[[Bloo]], for once, had time to lounge around in the nice afternoon sun. Having run all his errands already, and with Roam and Fawn helping out foraging and looking after Empress and Koi, he finally had some time to lay down and relax. Downtime had been quite rare for him these days, so when he had the chance, he gladly grasped it with both hands. The blue belemoid closed his eyes, ready to take a nap when he heard something from a distance "Oh! Snap!" followed by the telltale sounds of the straps of someone's bag snapping, and all their stuff falling out onto the ground. Bloo sighed hoping that someone else would pick up on this stranger's distress. He didn't particularly care who it was just- anyone but him. not even a second later he heard a glass jar falling onto the ground followed by a dissapointed "ah I needed that" as the stranger, quite clearly, struggled to gather their stuff back up. Bloo grumbled to himself, groggily sitting up, urged my the sound of more fumbling. He looked over and saw- a brick-coloured Tsabhua as he predicted fumbling with some sort of bag with a snapped strap. He

made his was over, seemingly in no rush, without the stranger as much as noticing him as the Tsabhua tried to stash all his items back into the now broken bag. "Can I- help you with that?" he asked, still tired from having his (well deserved) nap interrupted. The stranger fumbled some more, dropping several items out of their hands again. "Oh- uhm, do you happen to have a spare bag?" the Tsabhua sighed "See, my bag broke ages ago- it has a hole in it, very inconvenient, and now the strap's broken and-" the stranger cut off their own sentence, groaning "it's not not a good situation, you see." Bloo nodded- he had been in that situation one too many times himself. "Sure just- follow me." he started leading the way further into the colony. "Whoa! No clue people lived here nowadays. Sorry for just- waltzing in like I own the place, I suppose." Bloo shrugged "It's okay, we don't mind visitors much, really. Name's Bloo, by the way." the stranger seemed relieved at that "Oh- [[Seymore]]!" Bloo showed Seymore the place where they stored their extra supplies, which at the time were mostly semi-succesfull arts and crafts made

by Empress and weren't the best quality, which he supposed would still be better than a double-broken bag regardless. Seymore sighed in relief. "Thank goodness! I still had quite a bit to walk you see- Im visiting my mother further into the region, she lives ages away so it's a special occasion- and I brought my best bag with me, but it kept getting stuck on things" Seymore rambled on for a bit more, and it became pretty clear that he wasn't gonna get to return to his nap anytime soon, especially with the stranger's rambling. Zoning out for a moment, Bloo helped the Tsabhua move his stuff into his new bag- mostly bits of food and other small trinkets until he grabbed some papers that the Tsabhua apparently had been carrying, "Ah, those" the Tsabhua sighed "I've been looking for a colony to give those to. Some weird- guy? Gave them to me, said to bring it to a colony or something." Seymore rolled his eyes "people these days, y'know? Thinking anyone will just- ferry whatever over to a random colony." he huffed "Who says I'm even going to stumble on a colony! I'm just trynna visit my ma."

Bloo shuffled, awkwardly clearing his throat "I mean you're kind of at a colony right now. We could- uh" he looked at the papers in his hand- "I suppose we could take these off your hands then?" Seymore sighed in relief "You're right! Finally- I've been worried about crumpling these all trip. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but y'know- I don't wanna seem sloppy or something, my ma always used to say that first impressions are important, so I try my best." Bloo decided not to mention that Seymore had stumbled in, trying desperately to hold all his possessions, and a broken bag, in his hands in a way which couldn't possibly have been less sloppy-looking. "Anyways, I ought to head out again, really." Seymore said, all his stuff transferred over to the new bag- which Bloo only now noticed had small flowers embroidered on it which probably wasn't quite the other's style. "It was nice meeting you, Seymore" Bloo smiled, leading the other back to the general area he found him "Have fun visiting your ma!" he called out, watching the other leave. He glanced up at the sky, noticing the sun had already started to set.

Grumbling a bit, he curled back in his previous spot. A small nap was better than none, he supposed.
