[he nods slowly]

Then we should check there, right? There's bound to be... I mean, there's nothing of use here, so we might as well check out there.

[he starts walking towards the hall. getting away from the dead body sounds like a great idea]

...As for me, I was using the restroom in my room when the announcement came on. [it sure helped his poop come out]

/She did not need to know that and makes a gagging face behind his back, then turns to Lia./

Where were you?

/She doesn't know about her language problem, and waits for a second before turning to follow him. She'll keep quiet about why she's asking around for now, but if they pay attention her eyes are still red-rimmed from crying earlier./

Aren't you kind of... young to be... marrying someone...?

/And now she's eyeing her head to toe, confused as hell. Lev's taking that better than she is./

You are talking about the guy yea tall /motions/ and with lots of acne?

/This is more interesting than the dead body and she's ignoring Lev in favor of whatever the fresh hell this is./

Yes, that is him! Ah, my mama will be so pleased! He is good-suited for farming. It is always good to find a husband early, yes?

No one asked you!

/Shut up Lev. She turns back to Lia./

Your parents farm?! I didn't know people still did that. Did you two know each other before you got here? Do you stay together in the same room? Have you actually /leans in/ had sex?
