"... who the fuck are you again?"

To be fair, there probably hadn't been a proper introduction between them in the first place. In Charco's perspective, all the toad people just... kinda showed up one day. Charco wasn't entirely sure what they did either, but there seemed to be enough of them to go around doing whatever it was that they did.

It was then he moved on the topic of Praxat's message: Cyanna. While she had stayed long enough to give the Toadian a farewell, she hadn't bothered to stay long enough to give him one, nor had she welcomed him back after the tournament... or bothered to understand what he was going through. He understood she had her own problems to deal with, but in the end, had there been anything between them?

To be able to cry as he had after the battle with Luop would have been nice, but aside from burning resentment, Rex's occupation of his body had left him emotionally numb much longer than that time. By the time his emotions did return, the feeling of emptiness had grown too large to not be overwhelmed by it.

And so he sat there and thought for some time.
As he sat, heard a familiar voice speaking from behind him, "We need to talk. Please Charco."

OOC: One more thing I need to deal with.
