I kind of want to go to sleep, but... I kind of want to go and punch something, too.

[beathollow]

They are not mutually exclusive - one just has to come before the other. ... Please don't punch anything that can punch back, however.

[adorabrawler]

Are we talking about just people, or…

[beathollow]

The animals in the forest sound pretty vicious.

[adorabrawler]

They do, but I’m not gonna hit them just because I’m ticked off. Only if I have to.

[beathollow]

Mm, good. I don't think anyone should go in there alone. Or pick fights just because.

( hence, no punching anything that can punch back. )

... I'm not sure there's anything here that could suit your needs though. We'll have to fix that.

[adorabrawler]

Eh, it’s fine. Maybe I’ll just punch Zenith again.

[beathollow]

... I trust you two to handle that. Are you... does it still hurt?

[adorabrawler]

Oh.

It's a little sore, but it seems to be okay now.

[beathollow]

Mm, good. ... Oh, I could have Coda mend anything if you decide to... I don't know. Punch the walls?

( she's not a puncher she's a musician )

[adorabrawler]

Maybe not that. I bet if I broke that too another wolf would come out.

[beathollow]

--Wait, what?

[adorabrawler]

Uh. ... Yeah. Don't break the fence.

[beathollow]

Breaking the fence summons wolves.


Okay.

[adorabrawler]

Something like that. Not that you seem like the type to go around destroying things.

[beathollow]

Mm, no... That sort of thing would be unsightly of me.

( there's a subtle emphasis on the last three words. )

Just- please be careful, okay?

[adorabrawler]

[ unsightly, huh ]

I’ll be fiiine—as long as there aren’t any more horrible abominations being summoned. Everything else around here is whatever.

[beathollow]

( i would regain all her memories right now if it meant mizuki could punch mafuyus mom no lie but i'm having fun so )

Honestly. I'm tired of summonings.

[adorabrawler]

… I’m just tired.

[ … ]

I thought by now we’d be back home.

[beathollow]

...

( spinel gets all of the sonata hugs, because she's hugging her again, more comforting and gentle than the desperate attempt to keep her calm last night- )

I know. I'm sorry.

[adorabrawler]

[ Hugs are good. Hugs are nice. ]

... S'okay. It's not your fault. Maybe I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up when others seemed pretty sure this was going to flop.
