Canasto?

[ a beat ]

You know? The thing you put the dirty clothes in?

[gonerouge]

[he blinks once more as he turns his head to look at the hamper. he points to it to make sure.] You mean the hamper?

[justblueit]

--Right. That thing.

[gonerouge]

[passes it to him. just.... wait for it.]

[justblueit]

[ look he just wants to put his dirty clothes away. don't bug him about his language choices keith ]

[gonerouge]

[he gon do it anyway-]

What language was that? I haven't heard it before.

[justblueit]

It was Spanish.

[ says it like it's the most Obvious thing in the world ]

[gonerouge]

Oh. [while he looks dumb, he knows that the other either has family who live in...........a place that speaks spanish, or came from a place that spoke spanish. the academy gets all types of folks, so it makes sense that there would be someone who spoke a different language. lance being one of them only proves the point.] I didn't know you spoke Spanish.

[justblueit]

It's a thing that happens when your family speaks it.

[gonerouge]

Did you live in an area that spoke it, or did your family com from an area that spoke it?

[justblueit]

It's kinda both? I mean, my family's from Mexico, but we also lived in an area that had a lot of Mexican immigrants.

[gonerouge]

And where was that? [dont leave him hanging bro]

[justblueit]

Along the border.

[gonerouge]

[he wants to ask which one. but he'll... just let that be the answer yep. because that means more fuel for lance to tease him with.]

[justblueit]

Why the sudden interest in my backstory anyway?

[gonerouge]

We're teammates, I figured it came with the territory. The more we know about one another the easier it is to work together.

[justblueit]

Alright, where are you from?

[gonerouge]

I can't really remember. But I've always been close to the academy.

[justblueit]

--So, what is your backstory?

[gonerouge]

Well I-- hey!! I asked you first.

[justblueit]

Hey! I told you things! Now you tell me things!

[gonerouge]

You only told me that your family was from Mexico and that you speak Spanish.

[justblueit]

Exactly.

Now tell me things.

[gonerouge]

Okay. [you reap what you sow, lance.] I grew up an orphan, no one wanted to adopt me, so the moment I could, I left the orphanage to join the academy. You know the rest.

[justblueit]

--Well, that was more depressing than I expected.
