[ Iris didn't look offended, which was good. His smile didn't look particularly happy, either, but it was a smile. Finn takes it to heart, relieved he didn't manage to make one of the new crewmembers feel more alone than he had to be. That could be tough, those first few weeks, Finn remembered them well.

As for me, uh... I dunno, anything you can think of, really. People made of candy, people made of slime, people made of fire, wizards, dogs. [ He's listing off on his fingers, looking as if he's straining to list even close to 5% of what's there. ] We've got a pretty big goblin population in Ooo, I guess? Oh, and lots of princesses.
It's lonely sometimes, I guess, being the only one like me? But it's also not so bad. Like, my ex is a fire-person, so that got a little complicated... but the rest of it is just, kinda, my life. You get used to it.
[ He grins, gesturing out towards the Ximilia hallways. ] Now I live in a ship with wall to wall humans and every day's a new kind of weird. All relative, right?
