《The blood was paint to make me think it was authentic, and it totally worked. The heads are like... bragging? A collection? I think it's creepy. And they don't smell because he either uses the body as the basis for an artificial model and then he wraps the skin around it OR he flash-freezes them and there's no moisture and it doesn't rot, like beef jerky. It's absolutely the grossest thing that Sly does with his time.》

Garrot may or may not have train-of-thought rambled his way through that. In fact, his guy's tendency to invite the Monkey Knight over solely to help him remove the carcass of a giant monster from a freezer is... well, it's super creepy and Garrot doesn't want to dwell on it. He'll deal with people, not beasts, thank you very much.

So instead, he shifts back to nature and society.

《But some buildings are made out of natural products and some coexist with nature! Plus, plants creep up all the time and the rats are huge, so nature adapts!》 Garrot's absolutely trying to plead with stubborn, grumpy Gyre to see the bright side. Or maybe it's just, what's the word, rationalizations? He's a city slicker, he's way out of his element, and definitely not nervously trying to overcompensate...

《Remind me to show you some pictures of my old monastery when we hang out again, they're nice.》
