Not a bad way to go about life. That's how a community should work, ideally.

[He stands up for a moment to brush excess dirt off his legs.]

What position does your master hold, then? Are they a teacher of sorts, or a commander?

[unfriendliest]

They're like a commander, yeah.

[ he pauses, wiping his forehead with the back of his arm. it's hot? he maybe smears a bit of dirt on his face? for better or worse, he is not at all concerned by this as he immediately reaches for the next weed. ]

They don't fight. But they give us our missions, and assign us the chores. And they're the one who does the summonings, so none of us would even be there if not for them.

[menially]

Summonings?

[That's... a fancy term to use for what sounds like a bunch of soldiers in some sort of autonomous base.]

Do you just mean an invitation for the work in general, or am I misunderstanding?

[unfriendliest]

[ he doesn't even look up from the work ]

I did say I'm not human.

[menially]

Well... yeah, that much I knew from all that drinking earlier. You didn't really elaborate any further, though.

[So, if it's not a summoning of the paperwork and political sort, then--]

You're... a sentience of some kind, then. A spirit, maybe?

[unfriendliest]

A spirit given human form, yeah. All of us are.

[menially]

[Hm. That's... kind of new, but maybe not as much as he thought. He'll give a sheepish sort of bow of the head, as polite as possible before returning to a more stubborn plant in front of him.]

My apologies for the misunderstanding, then.

To be able to summon that many spirits must take a lot of personal skill, I'd imagine. Does it happen very often?

[unfriendliest]

[ he's not offended, so kara just shrugs as he pulls out a weed, frowning at the clump of dirt it brings with it. ]

Every few weeks or so, maybe? At least once a month. I don't really keep track of them all, except to know how much we need to cook.
