Human: Compose a short description of a nostalgic scene outside town with a grumpy old codger and quaint houses. Assistant: 
There's little traffic here, by foot or by mule, and the homes are quiet, quaint sorts of houses. The peace is disturbed, however, by some shouting from the southeast. One grumpy old codger sits on his porch, glaring in that direction and mumbling to nobody in particular.
