[Handshakes are the worst for Nero. He's not fond of so much touching and having his space invaded. Still, it's a simple greeting. So he takes his hand and returns the handshake before pulling back immediately.]
Savia's easy enough to say. You lucked out and ended up with something simple.
[He'll walk ahead for a bit and expect her to follow. ]
[ she is a nice girl, she spends her days tinkering with machinery and tries to keep the peace a lot of the time. which means she'll only be a menace when she absolutely loses it. ]
[ He's not an asshole enough to say no to that. Nero might actually be surprised when Savia turns into a menace on her bad days. She's so gentle now!! Food it is. ]
Yeah, sure. I'll pass on desserts and you better eat vegetables.
You sound like someone I know, except with a more direct mouth.
[ Wait that wasn't the way that was supposed to come out. She continues hurriedly. ]
Oh that's a compliment, I promise! Ishtar's really good but she's not very direct. Like she'll say "Oh Savia, you'll need to eat something other than crackers your skin will dry out."

Nero's easy enough to say too!

My last name's Constantin, that's a little bit of a mouthful. I think.

[ Nero's tense expression softens a bit. She seems like a nice girl?? It's hard to stay grouchy around someone friendly. ]
I don't have a last name and I'm glad for it. Let's keep the nonsense to a minimum.
