"In my defense, I was left unsupervised." ↳ @vocesincaput (Kotallo) — memes / accepting!

        "I guess leaving you alone with Erend is functionally the same as leaving you unsupervised." Aloy eyes the empty tankards of ale on the table and imagines she knows a little bit about how it all happened. "I still don't know how you stumbled across that kind of data. I've been searching Old World ruins since I was a kid and never ran into this, uh..." She's not sure what to call it. "Animal art?"

        "I guess people have always been...uh. Complicated." Aloy tapped her Focus to bring up the image Kotallo was referencing. It looked like some kind of...humanized fox creature, but the purpose of such artwork was beyond her understanding. "Not to mention strange..." She shook her head, and with a wave of her hand she dismissed the datapoint Kotallo had been browsing. "Maybe it's time for a little break from that, yeah? Didn't GAIA set you up with some data on Old World war machines?" Hazel eyes glanced back to the tankards. "Maybe we should also get you something to eat."

Kotallo gave a unamused 'Hmm' that he only just managed to hide a tinge of his slightly drunken state from.

"Each time I start to understand these ancient humans they... surprise me." He replied as he looked at the date. 'Humans enjoyed... this kind of thing'? he asked himself. A deep frown on his brow as he swiped to the next image which caused him to frown even more. Kotallo went to lean on the console before him and stumbled slightly, face tensing in annoyance (and a little embarrassment). The Tenakth looked at his shoulder and then the floor, seeing his mechanical arm beside his feet. He had had no idea it had fallen off.

Kotallo gave another sound and looked at one of the empty tankards. What had Erend been giving him?
