Truth be told, Nataku was no expert at this social thing either. He obeyed orders and, when he wasn't being a brat, he said what was expected of him or nothing at all. Before Goku had managed to whirlwind into his life, his only consistent conversation partner had been Shien, and that didn't often stray into friendly territory. They both had roles to fulfil after all. Shien wasn't the sort of man who spent a great deal of time on frivolous conversation.

Come to think of it, Venom was just like him when it came to enduring Nataku's teasing. He swallowed it and let it slide... but he still wasn't much of a conversation partner. Was that just the way he was? Or did it have something to do with his mood?

Nataku let him change the topic again, frowning silently for a moment before he answered. "Ten...Maybe eleven days if you count the one I slept though. Have you been here a long time?"
