Ouroboros Spine v. two feet standing on a principle

Raimo is oblivious to the feelings of the girl. He doesn't know how abrasive he can sound, or be, and presumes her behavior is merely youth playing a part. When she told her story it was brief, but it intrigued him.

He wanted to know more. He needed details. It was not enough to have a name for the place, or the basic set-up of their roles; it was not so unique, and while he could use his imagination to spin it in to something different, he would rather listen.

Ah, then you only watch? Study the animals and follow them. That was a limited role, Raimo thought. Do you enjoy your work? He asked a moment later, as if he were musing to himself; he looked thoughtfully upon her all the same.
