conversations:  Nothing in particular. My guy's not a caster, so buff rounds are yours. I just need to know whether you're an Aberration or a Monstrous Humanoid.

  We'll say one buff round to keep things sporting. Fair?

  My animal companion, being huge sized, will be nearby but not on the indicated squares.
  
  Once I figure out my buff round buffing, I'll let you know what you can see when we roll init.
