"You need...is that what you were doing?" Tony asked, pointing back to the tangle of woods that he had been avoiding since arriving here. That was no place for someone who didn't like bugs. Or strange animals. Or weird plants. Most of the outdoors, really. "Do you know what any of that stuff is?" Had this guy come from the forest? Had none of them traveled out of the city far enough to find that there was a whole civilization out there that they were just ignoring? A civilization that was really wigging Tony out by not making eye contact, only ensuring that he felt terrible about the robes despite what he was told. The offense had to be deep. They could work on it, because it would be useful to have someone who could identify any of the wild plants.
