[ chews on a bite of cheese as he listens. ]

If they're traveling through a forest it'd probably take a while. Hopefully, they're better equipped to deal with being chased by things as a duo.

[ hmm ]

Are you all visioned out?

[ shakes his head. ]

No, I'm up for whatever you're up for. I just know visions can be a lot to think about sometimes.

[ sincerely (and not at all relieved, nope): ]

That's good.

[ a nod ] Yeah. Weird, right?

So the forest attacked and he ran away, is that it?

[ He knows that the kingdom is under attack, but he's - ]

An explanation about what? Did I miss that part?

More importantly are you... okay after seeing that? [ an attack and someone getting hurt. ]

[ So it Was a lot worse than he was trying to make it out to be. He tries to file away all of the details for later - if needed - but in the moment he turns more fully to Gingham. ]

Hey.

It's okay to be stressed. [ He hesitates to move to take his hand, knowing how that can be in a moment like that, so he just - tries to like keep eye contact. ] I don't know if it helps you, but it helps me to think that - no matter what we see. The only thing we can do something about is the present.

I know.

[ He says it quietly, shaking his head. ]

It's hard to just watch. Especially when there's more and more of them and the people in it start feeling like real people. I think - and maybe it's naive and wishful of me, but for yourself, for here you just -

You got to believe that it works out. That he has enough determination to make it out, they figure out a solution for their goals together. You're allowed to worry about it, I'd be more worried if you weren't. What you've talked about is a lot to ask on anyone, especially some kids like us.

Or even if he doesn't have the right answer, maybe he knows in his heart that he can do something. All answers aren't set in stone, even if they seem like they might be. The point of a quest is a journey, not the end.

[ he loves quest stories even now, he tries to smile. he does reach a hand out this time. ]

Keep your fingers crossed and believe in him as much as I believe in both of you. [ It's said sincerely. ] And it's okay to be worried or upset about it.

You don't have anything to thank me for. And you can freak out at me anytime, I won't think you're crazy. Promise.

You might have, but I'll never deny hearing it. Besides. You deserve the best.
