*A very frilly scavenger (pictured below) just comes up to Marbles, says, "Hello", then just keeps moving with the very similar to their own appearance cub clinging to their upper torso.*
"Oh...?" Marbles mumbles, puzzled. She's never heard a scavenger speak in her native language before. This tribe has had minimal contact with slugcats for a long while now, so the greeting was even more unexpected. Marbles' surprise quickly turns into appreciation, and she replies:
The scavenger squints their eyes as if smiling, and continues heading towards the sleeping chambers. Their little scavpup maintains a curious eye contact until they both turn a corner.
// Marbles is speaking Yoŋasabi, which is a conlang created by @opashoo. The scav says "peace", a type of greeting/farewell. Marbs replies with "hi [informal], be safe".
