"Hey, yeah!"
"That'll work!"
"Hey, I wonder if Harry would let you set them off at our place?"
"I highly doubt it. We'd be hard pressed even to get a visit."
"You're probably right. Oh well... Shall we get going then so we can try these video games before we run out of daylight?" Geoff nods at Met to say it's OK for them to go before he helps Kimberly carry Houston out to her car.

Re: Pet Friendly: Exotic Acres
The roos follow Met along the street, excited over the prospect of playing video games. By chance, Joey turns his head as he flicks a fly away and as he does so, he notices a hyena standing on a corner with a camera around her neck and looking confused. He decides to point it out to the others, not having seen one before.
"Hey, it's one of those watchamacallits from that movie with the singing lions!"

"What?" Namine asked. She saw the hyena. "Oh, you mean a hyena. And I'm sure that that movie is called The Lion King." she said. Namine waved at the hyena.

Aida saw an animal waving at her and waved back happily. She ran up to him at full speed. "Hello , I'm Aida, nice to meet you! Smile!" She took a picture of Namine with a blinding flash. "Oh, so sorry! I thought the flash was off!"

Re: Pet Friendly: Exotic Acres
The kangaroos are a bit spooked by this carnivore suddenly running at them as well as the sudden bright flash so they turn and bolt a few steps before managing to control themselves. They turn back to face the hyena again but keep their distance as she introduces herself.

Namine was a little surprised when the hyena took a picture of her. The flash blinded her for a second and she almost fell over. "Hello, Aida. I'm Namine." she said, holding onto her head.

Aida grabbed Namine's paw and shook it vigorously with both of hers. "Nice to me 'cha!" Her smile was huge, bearing her sharp teeth. Hello!," she called to the Kangaroos.

"Thanks I get that a lot," replied Aida. She ran over to the roos and took one paw from each in her paws and shook. "Hi, You two are?"

Re: Pet Friendly: Exotic Acres
The JJs are disconcerted by the hyenas energy.
"Uh- um-"
"Er- ah-"
"J-Jake. A-and this is my brother."
"J-Joey. We're twins."

"Great to meet you J-Jake and J-Joey!" Aida's tone made it clear she didn't include the stutter to mock them, but rather because she honestly thought it was how they said their names.

"Guys, relax. Even if this were the wild, hyenas are scavengers." Met explained to the roos. "You're safe as long as you're alive."
He then turned to Aida. "They're new to being pets and are a bit scared of things that remind them of dingoes. I'm Met, by the way." he offered his paw to shake.

"Oh, I'm sorry," said Aida sympathetically. He ears flopped downwards and she said, "I didn't mean to scare you." The calming of her voice didn't match the continued energy of her body as she grabbed and shook Met's paw vigorously.

"I-it's OK."
"I guess we still have a lot to learn." The roos are managing to bring themselves under control - just.
"It's Jake and Joey by the way, not J-Jake and J-Joey."
"We're going to play video games at Met's house. D'ya wanna come?"

"It's actually not polite to invite other people to someone else's house," Met told the roos, "But I'll let it slide cause I was going to do the same. So what so you say?" he asked Aida.

Namine laughed a bit at the hyena's excitement. "So, why do you carry around that camera?" she asked.

"To take pictures of course," replied Aida. To demonstrate she snapped a picture of Namine. "Eh, that one came out badly," she muttered, deleting it from her camera.

The roos are a bit startled by the sudden flash. Rubbing their eyes they enquire as to what that object is and why it makes those blinding lights, never having seen a camera before.

"Picture?"
"Where?"
"How?"
"All I can see at the moment is a big flashing blue square."
"Me too!" The roos rub their eyes again.

"That's because you're on the reverse side," Aida explained. She walked over and turned the camera around and showed them the picture she took. "See?"

As the roos' vision clears, they peer at the small screen.
"Well I'll be. Look at that."
"Is this the same sort of magic the humans use to make the movies in the drive-in? Only.. those pictures move and talk..."

"The Aboriginal people used to do drawings on rocks and caves with ochre. They were quite interesting to look at - when the humans weren't around, of course." recalls Jake thoughtfully.
Joey scratches his muzzle. Yeah... Except the ones showing them hunting roos."
"Definitely." Jake agrees.

"Eating Kangaroos...hmmm." mused Aida. She suddenly grabbed Jake's arm and began to feel it it. "Seems king of t wiry but firm. Too firm. Meat, but way to tough..." He shook her head. "I have no idea why they though Kangaroos were good to eat. No offense."

"Try not to scare them," Met said to Aida. "They nearly literally died of fright earlier... but the legs are probably a bit better than the arms. Probably can't beat Zebra though."

Re: Pet Friendly: Exotic Acres
The JJs instinctively bolt a few good, long hops before turning to face the other pets, surprised at Met's revelation.
"Have..."
"Have you..."
"Actually, you know..."
"Eaten zebra?"
"We saw them in Pridelands."
"Reminded us of Brumbies, they did."

"Zebra.." Aida said dreamily. Her mouth began to water and she drooled slightly. Embarrassed she recovered herself. "So, are we gonna stand around all day or go play some games?"

"Store bought?"
"Oh! You mean like where you give them that... green stuff - money, that's the word - and they give you stuff you want."
"Oh, like a shop like we've seen in the drive-in?"
"Yeah!"
The roos follow Met towards his house.
"I wonder if we'll get to see in one."
"I doubt Harry would give us any more of that money. He was reluctant enough to give us that first lot."

"We're our own roos, thank you very much."
"Nobody owns us. We're free animals."
"Only reason we're with Harry is because some humans with guns put these neck things on us and told us that if we didn't do what the humans wanted then we'd get shot." Jake tugs uncomfortably at his collar.
"We don't even go into his den, not that he'd let us anyway."
"We just stay out on the grass under the tree."
"We're used to it anyway."

"We didn't."
"We were shot with tranquilliser darts while we were at home in the Outback and woke up in a zoo over here."
"Then the zoo shut down and we were on the streets on our own with no idea what to do or where to go until a meercat suggested we come here..."
"Anyway... Sorry to make you uncomfortable..."
'Yeah... So, Met, which one of these dens is yours?"
