[There's no particular view, just some market stalls, off kilter and moving a little as Yondu starts talking in his drawl (which sounds markedly southern U.S.).] So, I'm tryin' to build up a collection again. I get little figurines. You know, of animals and people and stuff? And I line my workspace with 'em. Sort of good luck charms. [His blue hand comes into view, showing what looks like a tiny porcelain deer person about four inches tall or so. And it is, frankly, adorable.]

But see, I didn't exactly show up with any of 'em.

So I'm lookin' for some new ones. So tell me if y'all come across any places that got good selections of these sort of things.

This is another'n I got. [And he switches items, showing a jeweled frog thing. He misses his cute little collection of adorable crap. Don't question it.] Just as an example.

(The kid had horrible influences in his friend group. That and being a near-teenage boy resulted in a lot of crude humor. Or at least crude rumors.

Eddie doesn't know if he's right or wrong either. Those articles had been pretty convincing. He nods very seriously.)

They take away memories and then put people back on earth.

(Probably.)

I think I'll take my chances with you eating kids.

(He smiles a little and see, look, not as awkward. Sort of.)

Lucky for you I ain't found any pots big enough to make a big stew in, but you'll be first on my ingredient list when I do.

Always did wonder how Terran tasted.

[He's pretty much never going to let it die, especially since Peter fell for it for years and years.]

[clussy]

Oh, trust me, you won't need that big of a pot. Especially if you cut me up first.

(He waves his thin arms through the air.)

I'm practically made for alien stew. I don't really know much about taste. Probably salty.

[yondu]

Probably'd go pretty good in a big ol' vat of chilli, though. Leave it cookin' long enough? It can make any meat taste decent.

[He's going to run with the joke, because at least this poor kid gets it.]

[clussy]

(It's true. Eddie does get it, and it's not so bad of a joke once he's realized that Yondu is actually a pretty nice guy.

That actually just makes it funnier.)

As long as you actually kill me before cooking me. I don't want to go down like a lobster. That'd suck so much.

[yondu]

Wait.

Which'ns are lobsters?

[He needs to clear that bit up first. He's pretty decent with Terran animals but that's a new one on him.]
