[activatingcombatmode]

Hey, kiddo. How you hanging in there? Haven't got into any more trouble, have you?

[pinksidekicking]

I'm hanging like a bat!

Hm, what do you count as trouble? I fought a Corsair, trolled people with bottles letters, pretended to be a man posing as a woman and snuck into Corsair territory.

[activatingcombatmode]

[This "child" needs a leash???]

Think I've gotta class almost all of those things as getting into trouble.

Please tell me you didn't get hurt?

[pinksidekicking]

[ Don't put no chains on this girl! ]

Okay, good to know. I'll write that down. "Zack counts these sorts of things as trouble."

Nah, I'm all injury-free! That Corsair lady was tough, but we sort of just stopped fighting before anyone got hurt. And I had back-up when on infiltration duty. Guy has a huge sword, lots of them!

[activatingcombatmode]

Good, because I don't want to hear about you getting shipped off to some corsair place to get locked up, alright?

If you do get into trouble make sure you call me.

[Guy has a huge sword, lots of them- huh?]

[pinksidekicking]

Plz, I would totally break out of any little jail they've got.
Slip out before they even know I'm gone.

Don't worry, you're like... number two on my speed dial. If these things had speed dial. Anyway, I gave you a name that put you near the top!

[ Somehow, Cloud ended up as number one. Xenk is third. ]

[activatingcombatmode]

Guess you do have that ability to turn into small animals and all.

But hey, I guess number two isn't that bad. Still, watch out for yourself, okay?

[pinksidekicking]

I make the cutest mouse. And slipperiest snake!

Always. Who's got four thumbs and is great at watching their own back? This girl! If you need anything, just call on me.

[activatingcombatmode]

Just don't get snatched up by a seagull looking for a snack when you're like that.

If you've got any jobs for the armada coming up we should go as a group.

[pinksidekicking]

If that happens, I turn into a rhino! No seagull can carry a three tonne animal! Unless there are giant sized seagulls here, then everyone should be on the lookout.

Hey, I'm down for any job! You name it, I'll be there. We could sign up for more of the gross ones.

[activatingcombatmode]

Damn, that's a mental image to remember. Let's just hope there aren't actual giant-sized seagulls here, then.

[Don't speak too soon, Nimona...]

You WANT the gross ones? More slime and crap like that? You're really a kid, aren't you.

[pinksidekicking]

Your sword will look like a toothpick compared to a seagull large enough to lift a rhino!

[ No, let her speak. She wants to take a picture of one next to Zack's sword! ]

Or maybe I'm so adult that those kinds of things just don't bother me anymore.





No, you're right. I'm still a kid at heart! You should meet my real kid faces.

[activatingcombatmode]

No way! And there's no way I can find a sword bigger than the one I already got.

[Unless...?]

And hey, it's fine being a kid. So long as you've had the chance to do that, get all covered in slime and dirt all you want.

[pinksidekicking]

I bet I could find one bigger than your sword! Without cheating and having one custom-made!

[ Unless! ]

I got to do that for a little while. But the rest of the time I just sort of lived in the wild as different animals.

[activatingcombatmode]

Yeah? You want to make a bet on that? I bet you can't even carry a greatsword, no shape-changing allowed.

But you gotta tell me what it was like living in the wild like that. What was that like? Were you alone?

1/2

[pinksidekicking]

It's a bet! Loser buys the winner lunch.

It was...

[ Maybe she sent that on accident or...? ]

[pinksidekicking]

Animals didn't really see me as one of them, they could sense something was off. If they didn't flee in fear, I just wasn't accepted by them.

There were some benefits. No one to tell me when to go to bed, or clean up, or eat my vegetables.

[ Are those really benefits? Not having a loving parent to look after her? Being wild and free and alone. ]

[activatingcombatmode]

[Damn, why does that read so ... sad? Being alone like that, not even finding a place with wild animals... Zack is going to let her win the bet on purpose now. He'll buy her lunch.]

Sounds wild. It must be a huge change of pace to be here, then. You fit right in with the rest of us weird rift travellers.

[pinksidekicking]

[ A good big brother. ]

It's been a lot of fun, being here. I sort of don't want to go home.

[activatingcombatmode]

[He just met Nimona a few months ago but if anything bad happens to her he'll kill everyone in the room and then himself.]

You know what? Yeah. Me too.
