Gamzee gave a look to his fellow brother, his face lit up at the possibility that this dude would allow for him to take him through the busy and messy alleyway that made home to the middle-lower class. These were trolls that were only allowed to live a semi-free lifestyle, because they were completely fearful of acting out against the Empress. And besides, someone needed to head the shops and stores, the poor excuses to tailor to the Highbloods.
As Gamzee started an easy pace, he tried to talk along as he did so, pointing off at the vendors as he passed them by. “Right over there is kinda where I like to check out any cool motherfuckin strange items. Don’t even know what they are used for, but it’s neat to peep on them.” He stopped suddenly, thinking that perhaps he could interest his companion to check things out with him. “Wanna give it a look? You know, since you are all about not takin this route and all.” He was taking a chance on someone who he didn’t know at all, and yet he felt like for the first time in a long time he was making a difference in his life. Perhaps it had to do with the fact he could hang out with someone outside of a slave hold, and both parties were completely free. Whatever the case, Gamzee was eager to make a solid friend, one that came rent- free. However foolish it seemed, he was ignorantly optimistic.
He never walked through these streets himself, usually slaves or even servants did their business for him in parts like these. He did not want to walk through here, did not want to look at these disgusting trolls and yet here he was, convinced by the almost puppy like behavior of the Indigo troll before him. Kurloz did not know what to think about it, but yet he did not protest against it too much as he should.
A shrug of the shoulders, he couldn't feign disinterest, but he was far from interested. Neutral was the best that he could do and hope that it went over Gamzee's head that he rather wanted to do something else than keep doing this. He'd have loved to return to his hive and have the slaves tend to him, the itch to get his bulge rubbed having sparked somewhere. He pushed that one away though, he might be a master but he didn't give in to every urge.
Even if it was so very tempting and even if no one would blame him for it. He kept by Gamzee's side. Wondering what the younger Makara would do.
