“Really?” Hugo replied with surprise as they both settled into the booth. He spent a lot of time with people in the village but somehow he had managed to miss that one. “Huh, maybe I’ve actually been paying attention at work for a change.” He muttered, thinking aloud.
“Oh, all of the usual things worthy of a disapproving James look.” The shifter answered with a playful grin. In actuality, the things Hugo got up to were all in good jest. “A guy I’ve been taking to recently got claimed, so… that’s good, I guess.” He added with a shrug, taking a drink from a mixed tray that was brought over to them.
“Ah...” James nodded with a small smile at Hugo’s jest. It still baffled him that this was the reality of life in this place. That they could just talk about slaves and slavery like it was normal when it really should be anything but. “Do you know who claimed him? Do they... treat him well?”
