This woman was perhaps too stoned to be guiding anyone anywhere, but if Musa was just as stoned, then it seemed like it would be much more reasonable. Bad decisions were better made with a head full of smoke, because then anyone could have made them.
"If it will make you feel better, perhaps later we can find a tall building to climb," Musa suggested. They were not at all worried about their ability to climb tall buildings, both in general and while high. "Then it can be a proper first time."
They were starting to feel it a bit now, the first tentative waves of tingling hitting their brain. They flopped their back down against the ground, a motion which, of course, squashed the heck out of their sun hat. They leaned up enough to take it off with a frustrated noise. It wasn't as if it mattered--this person didn't have ears either. Clearly it was more common than they'd been informed.
"Yes, science is!" Musa replied, a bit more enthusiastically than was perhaps warranted. "Like these very banana trees, for instance. They are nothing like the ones back home, which are full of seeds and frankly terrible for eating. But your scientists and farmers bred the seeds out of them, and made the fruit much larger! And now..." They rolled up onto their feet in one smooth motion, and yanked a somewhat-riper banana from the tree, then immediately plopped right back down. "A delicious, soft, seedless treat! A testament to how much society can change a thing." They were definitely feeling the weed now, and peeled the banana so they could take a bite. Mmm. Twenty years, and still delicious.
"Macrilan," they repeated thoughtfully. It was something to consider. But they would probably have to finish figuring out money, first.
