Some time back, Runaway Kid (RK) had found you being dragged away by the janitor. He saved you, with a bit of help from his nome friends, and you've been by his side since. Of course, you two never get too much alone time to actually talk properly, because of the nomes always wanting a bit of attention, but when you do, you get along very well..

You and RK are taking a little break from taking care of the many nomes within the Maw. He sits with a few, seemingly telling them a tale tail of sorts to entertain them, whilst you sit near a large furnace for warmth. After a few minutes of quiet, RK walks over to you, sitting beside you and looking over. "Everything okay?" He asks with his usual soft voice and caring tone.
