He'd woken up in a big bed. He'd never been in such a big bed before, so he wasn't so sure what was going on when he found himself in one. It was a little ... what was that word he'd heard Courfeyrac use once? .... Disconcerting, that was the boy. He looked around the room, a little confused. He wasn't entirely sure how he'd gotten back here. After all, last he remembered he was scouting for stuff in the arena and then ... well, then nothing.

He slid out of the bed, catching sight of himself in a nearby mirror. Someone had washed and cut his hair, leaving it in a neat little cut that somehow made him look younger than he was. He was also in some weird all in one suit type thing, that covered his feet, leaving soft little noises as he walked around. There was a hat thing attached to it, with a face on it, Gavroche pulled it up to inspect it in the mirror, before quickly shoving it down again.

He made his way out of his room. Maybe he could find someone to tell him what was going on.

"A stupid one. I do be thinking whoever did be making it did no never be seeing an animal before." She shrugged.

"Well yes, you did be surviving, it do be showing that you do no be a total idiot." She wrinkled her nose at the last, not sure why he would have a problem with that.

"Mebbeh yer right there," Gavroche pulled at the fabric once more. "Can't see any self respectin' animal letting themselves go like this."

"Aen't as hard as surviving the streets of Paris. Surviving's easy. It's finding stuff to do that's hard."

"Well you need to be practicing, so you can be killing more people next time."

She shrugged, it was a good alternative to boredom in her mind.

"I aen't really fond of the killing people fing," Gavroche said. "Don't seem right, they aen't done me no harm."

"Well someone must have been killing you this time. Or did it be one of the monsters that did be getting you?"

She hadn't caught his death on the television technologies.

"Aen't rightly knowing." He ought to find out, he figured. Would probably help.

"You should be." She shrugged and then grinned, "But now you do be here, and we can be doing what we do be wanting til next time."

"I want to get out of this bloody suit," Gavroche muttered, an annoyed look crossing over his features.

"You must be having some more clothes somewhere. They like giving you a load of clothes and they do be saying you should no be wearing the same thing for more than a day! It do be a bit stupid." She wrinkled her nose in distaste for their fashion.

Gavroche blinked. Well, there was stuff in his room that looked like it might hold clothes but he had never thought to investigate it. "Stupid aen't the word fer it, they must have money to waste." Gavroche did not approve of this.

Neither did Pruna really, she wrinkled her nose. "They do be having, you should be seeing the parties they do be throwing. I do no even be thinking the queen where I do be coming from has all that food."

"King an' Queen 'ave all the food, how can a place like this 'ave more food than them?" It seemed a legitimate question in Gavroche's mind. "How can the people stand fer it?"

"They probably do be stealing it." Because really, there was more food than could feed everyone a hundred times over. She looked around and took a good few steps towards him and spoke with a low pitched voice.

"Did you be seeing the people who do be doing most the work round 'ere?" She asked him with a serious look on her face. "They do no be having no tongues.

He gave a nod. "Me sister told me about that," he said. "That aen't right, it aen't. How c'n ye do that ta another human being, eh?"

"I do be thinking they do be having huge secrets if they do be doing that." She shrugged, she had seen worse, done worse. She could even see why it was important if you were in charge that people didn't speak out against you, but still it worried her, and it made them even more dangerous.
