Sac Comic Con

[Kray]

Well that answered that. "Uh. Fair enough I don't recall everything I've eaten either." Or everyone he had eaten. taking his next card he passes the pile around and accepts those being passed to him. So far no grand plan, no clever stagey had formed in his mind. Maybe that was why he lost so much at these games.

This was no place to for to explain, but he had already done so once. "Ah. Hey think back to late September. I told a story do you remember it?" Caught did not always mean eaten, but yes the things he caught in his arms did usually end up that way. "Hm. Sorry why would I not like creature comforts?" He had told the truth but not the entire truth to the mortals at the table, covering talks that would be dangerous if taken literally.

[Sonnie Wu]

"Me either! That'd be a lot to remember!" Sonnie nodded, looking blankly at her cards. There were buffet restaurants that shuddered in fear of her arrival.

"September. Yes, of course." She did not. No, wait... something was coming to mind. Maybe. Almost there. Ohhhhhhhhh... right. That story. That was an awkward one. "I don't know why. I'm just making conversation, dude. It's called filling the silence. You got a better topic?"

[Kray]

The giant doubted anyone really did recall everything single thing they had eaten to eb fair. It was such an automatic thing for most. "Hm. I remember the good and bad stuff. Things that left an impression." Like the wings from the earlier story. Taking his time to try and think over the cards currently in hand, some attempt to piece together a plan. But without knowing what was in the remaining selections, without knowing what was left even in the ones he had already seen. It was hard for the ogre.

The question had seemed to come out of no where, and left him wondering how to was related. Turns out it was. Just its own question. "Oh. Uh. Well then Yeah I will say I prefer having money and stuff to the times when I didn't." In particular there were some very useful things money could do. "Ha. Recently got my room furnished with things for my size, do you have an idea how much difference it makes to have a bed I can actually fit in." Desk, bathtub a wardrobe and so on in a world not made for him, a world he didn't fit in. He had made a smal part of it fit himself.

[Sonnie Wu]

The Beast was busy trying to remember what cards did what, and probably playing them incorrectly. Not that she minded much. This game was just the latest in a long, long string of distractions from the traumas unpleasantness of life. True to her Court, Sonnie focused on the frivolous whenever she could manage it. "The good stuff, right." Not the bad. Push that aside. Leave it for later. Later will never arrive.

"I got what I need, really," she replied, thinking of buying necessities and luxuries. "Long as I got a comfy place to sleep and some cute clothes to wear, I'm don't want for much. Well, maybe aside from my Uber Eats bill. You do NOT want to see that number." The Vernal Queen looked over at the King of the Leaden Mirror, curiously. "What size bed is that called?"

[Kray]

Well it was a topic they shared some crossover on surely. So as the giant looks perplexedly at his cards he asks. "Huh. Then what's a good one you remember?" In present company opting to keep to the spring queens theme of the brighter side of things seemed favorable. He takes a yellow card to get some quick coins. Might need to buy something later, not a bad option to have. Although it does nothing not advance his current state of play.

When you are the giants size even having the basics could prove annoying and difficult to acquire. Money helped with that and more. "Oh. You don't go out much for food? I eat out a lot." A far from pleasant experience for whatever venue he happened upon on a given night but he always paid his bill in full and tipped well. It also added a decent amount of variety to his diet. "Uh. Well the biggest you can get is called large emperor size. But that's only Seven feet by Seven feet. So a few inches to short still." Now that discovery had been annoying. "Ah. So I got some good fellows to custom make me what I need." Now there is the benefit to having connections and the money to incentivize them.

[Sonnie Wu]

Sonnie played a card. Probably the wrong one, or at least a bad choice for the moment. She didn't know. Didn't care, either. It had pretty artwork on it. "Hmmm, a good food memory?" Sure wasn't that mystery pizza. "Does going to Vegas and cleaning out a casino buffet count? I'm still not welcome back there."

She watched other people make moves in the game, which she didn't understand. "Oh, I go out to eat plenty. I love food trucks. I follow their social medias and track them all over the city." She looked to Kray once more. Large Emporer did, indeed, sound like a big-ass bed. "Custom made? That makes sense. Is that pricey?"

[Kray]

Spare coins are a good thing to have usually, except when there's nothing to buy with it. He should gave looked for that ahead of time as it was something of a wasted turns from poor planning. "Oh. Ha. yes that absolutely counts." That's one way to make sure the house didn't always win. "Huh. Dam you must have really gone to town to get banned for eating." Maybe an eating contest wouldn't be as one sided as the ogre had once suspected.

Food trucks had there place and use without a doubt. "Hm. I tend for restaurants more myself. Easier on me guess, they will always be in the same place." Not that he was all to welcome, but enough money was spent and his name went far enough these days that turning the giant away was considered a worse idea still. "Hm. You learn anything interesting in your tracking endeavors?" he had no idea what, pure curiosity. "Oh. Yeah it's not cheap that for sure. But to have a bed I can actually fit on. I was willing to spend." Certain comforts were very much worth a pretty chunk of change. "Ah. Sleeping against a wall is fine and all, but the charm does wear thin after long enough." And there was a certain satisfaction in being able to shape small elements of the world in the way he wants them.

[Sonnie Wu]

"Okay, that might be a slight exaggeration," Sonnie admitted as she shuffled her cards, for no particular reason. "I didn't empty the whole buffet, but they did make me leave after a while." What had it been? Seven or eight hours? "And I possibly made a bit of a mess." She'd been a lot wilder in that first year after returning from Arcadia, still regaining her sense of humanity.

"Food trucks moving around makes them like an adventure!" She nodded excitedly. "Interesting? Hmmm, well, sometimes I find myself in parts of the city I'd never been to before, but that can't really happen anymore. I'm pretty certain I've been to every part of Sacramento by now." She tilted her head, curious. "Against a wall? Like sleeping upright?"

[Kray]

Okay fair enough, the beast was after all not an ogre who could with a little magical help actually clear a full buffet single handed. "Uh. Hey if you got a buffet to kick you out, you must have done a dam fine job cleaning the plates." The extra context however does add a sprinkling of doubt. "Oh. That's how it is, is it. Dare I ask how bad of a mess?" Far from one to job he was not a clean eater.

Taking a science card from the next set offered to him, not for any kind of plan more just to deny it to some one else, far from a winning strategy as it's another move that fails to advance his own state. "Hm. Yeah I can see that. A way to get you out and about." Honestly he had heard of crazier. "Uh. So does each truck stick to a rough area or do they really go anywhere and everywhere?" In his head it made sense to remain in area where people would know how to find you rather then chance a new locale each day. But did he know about running a food truck. "Ah. Sitting against a wall or corner yea. It's just about the only way I can get my legs stretched out." Much like beds reclining chairs were not made for his height or weight. Sleeping options for giants were very limited.

[Sonnie Wu]

"Let's just say I didn't have the best table manners back then." Or now, for that matter, but at least there's been improvement. "I don't eat everything with my hands anymore. Sometimes, I use a spork!" Sporks were cool.

Sonnie proceeded to play a card without looking at it. How she hadn't lost already was a mystery. "Some trucks have a regular migration path. Others go wherever, chasing crowds and events. Some do both." She shrugged. "They always update their social media with their locations for the day, though, so it's not hard to find them if you're a fan of a particular truck."

The Beast blinked at the Ogre, "Is there a reason you can't just lie on the floor? Like, roll out a couple of sleeping bags?"
