Mmm, yeah...I used to never go to stuff like this, because of that. I didn't like leaving them alone...

[Bruno enjoys the comfort of having them, so it wasn't entirely about safety. But now that they do have somewhere safe to stay, it's a little easier to venture out a bit more.]

Sorry. Maybe you still could sometime? They, uh, they are usually with me, at least a couple...

[He's. Not quite sure where he's going with this, actually? He's too intensely awkward to invite them to meet up, even if he had any sense of where or how to do that.]
