For what it's worth, this place doesn't seem all that bad. Especially if we can easily avoid that Roost place you mentioned.

[Admittedly, Natsume does have a skewed idea what could be considered "bad". His hand drifts toward his neck to where there had been a collar before he woke up here. He absently takes another bite while he sorts a few things out in his thoughts. Suddenly, his eyes narrow.]

Wait... is there a Zoo here?
