[Emotions require time to process. A noisy environment isn't conducive to that.
Unfortunately, it's about to get loud. The screeching of a monkey nears from a distance when Rupe bursts into the station and runs about with said monkey jumping on his back, unable to buck his aggressor. Please assist.]
[ alex immediately freezes at the sound of a screaming monkey, but she doesn't really get much time to react. from somewhere near her feet there is a little baby "rawr" and her t-rex pet charges out from under the bench where she has been curled up, asneepy and wanting to be near alex.
the baby charges
right at rupe and the monkey. she wants to play too.
[The monkey fears no dinosaur. At Rawr's charge, it shouts menacingly before pulling harder on Rupe's fur. Rupe runs in a circle to throw the monkey off to no avail.
Uncrossing his arms, Rufus peels himself away from the wall. He approaches the chaotic trio and reaches down with his left hand to pluck the monkey off of Rupe.]
oh dear. alex gets up off her bench and hurries over to grab her lil' t-rex that i refuse to name "rawr", jae. it takes a couple of attempts, as the little dino really, really wants to play. but she's able to gather her into her lap and then try to get a grip on rupe so rufus can hopefully get the money off easier than if rupe was rushing around in a panic. ]
[Rupe accepts the grip for what it is, and at that moment Rufus seizes the monkey by the scruff of its neck. He straightens against the loud protests.]

Why is there a monkey here?
no subject
It followed me from the ruins.
no subject
And it's still following you now?
no subject
Yes.
no subject
... Why? Does it... just like or, or like bothering you?

How’s your arm? [ she nods, mostly at the cauterised stump where his hand was. but both arms had A Time ]
no subject
It's yet to show signs of infection.
no subject
... I'm glad of that, at least. You know they would've used that healing gun on you, if you'd waited. Right?

... Did you buy that one?

... I don't know if you can buy another hand here though. Even if you have done it before?

Just make sure you keep it clean. [ she’s learned a thing or two about wounds recently. ]

That’s.... fine, but still. Arm or hand, I don’t know if that’s going to be something you can get here.
