Given your lack of options, you decide to prod her to see if it’s a good time. You can always stop talking if it’s not.
X: Hey Ko, are you free to talk?
K: no im not at all
K: im standing in the middle of the forest with blood gushing down my face how dare you try to talk to me right now
K: i am using it to scratch out a nice letter to you on this tree.
K: are you happy xin?
K: are you happy getting my blood sacrifice in your mind-feed?
X: One of these days you're going to be legitimately bleeding to death, and you'll be sorely disappointed to realize I don't believe you!
K: damn youre right
K: are we REALLY going to have to make a code for when im legit bleeding out? because wow
K: how did we get to this point
X: We got to this point by you poking fun at me being concerned about you!
X: Which is fine, because even I'll admit it's kind of funny.
X: And I guess puts into perspective how silly my worrying is to begin with.
K: well thats a good side effect i guess.
K: but just to put you at ease i dont think that you messaging me is ever going to end up making everything as terrible as you think it is
K: at worst ill get a bit dizzy in the middle of hunting or while jumping through some trees or something
K: and then ill fall but who even cares im basically a forest spirit
K: i can like
K: commune with a massive shambling canine to gently catch me in its maw or something
K: twist branches around me to break my fall
K: so im all cradled up in a nest made out of weird twisty wood
K: the point is...
K: telling you about my element is the worst decision i ever made.
X: Okay, that's all funny and fair and everything.
X: But also just because it won't be disasterous doesn't mean that I want you to potentially get hurt!
X: I lothe to think what kind of trouble you're going to get in once we start adventuring, if you're going to be that careless.
K: probably the most trouble possible
K: if i had to guess i would jump into the most outrageously dangerous situations i could think up at any given moment
K: but thats what youre here to watch my back for isnt it
K: and what im here to watch my own back for also so that its not all on you
K: because honestly i dont think i would want it to be
K: you really dont have to worry that much im basically trained for taking beatings at this point
X: Not a helpful way to put it, Ko!!!!
K: shhhhh you know what i mean
K: when you live out in the woods and grapple with animals for a living you kind of lose your ability to overthink the levels of caution you need to be taking
K: if you dont tackle that boar to the ground when you have the chance it's just going to turn around and gore you
X: Well when you live inside one room in a castle you learn none of that, wrestling with wild boars still sounds pretty dangerous!
K: youre not going to be in there for much longer though
X: If everything works out well, you mean.
K: things will work out fine
K: because im going to make them
K: if you cant bust out of there using this "hero magic" or whatever dumb name they came up with for it
K: then im going to personally set my package aside
K: clambor through the forest and plains and into the heart of cree
K: right up to your window so i can break you out
K: BAM rescued
X: Aaaa, that's very sweet as a sentiment.
X: But I think if I haven't been able to break my tether and shackle personally, I really don't think you could without cutting off one of my feet or something.
X: Which it... Just occured to me might be an option you wouldn't have an issue with, if you were in this situation.
X: But for now I would rather not get that drastic!
X: My best hope if I can't break it (and also don't want to lose any body parts) is to have my body teleported away from it, which is the plan here.
K: well yeah obviously thats preferred
K: but im just saying if that plan fails
K: busting you out would be a thing that id be totally willing to work with
X: Thank you.
X: Hopefully you won't have to, though.
X: They should be sending me down to get the mail soon. Do you have yours yet?
K: no
K: takes forever for stuff to get dropped here
K: i could probably bleed out my own ritual blood in the time it took for this thing to get here
K: but thats not really a problem because im not even going in until youve got yourself worked out
K: ill be available to talk while youre on the move if you need to
X: Thank you.
X: I should probably check in with Gila, too, before I actually do any ritual stuff.
X: There should be a package from him, as far as I understand? So maybe I'll talk to him once I get down there.
K: yeah sending friends stuff is kinda his thing
K: not even just FRIENDS its ridiculous
K: he sent me a bunch of terrible woven hats to "keep back the rain and sun"
K: like what a dork living in the forest is literally what im made for
K: point is that if he can give me something like that when we dont even really like each other im not shocked hed take this opportunity to give you something too
X: I really can't tell if you're making fun of him or giving him a compliment.
K: a little bit of both, probably
K: im going to switch over to something else for now by the way
K: you can still talk to me though ill reply as i go
> Xin: Imagine being a free-roaming forest spirit yourself.
