“Eh, I’m good. With Suan De, you two are more than qualified to get the job done.” You shrug. It’d be irresponsible to leave the people who depend on you alone. Oliver and Suan De are more than capable of handling anything themselves. “Call us if you need anything.”
“<span class="mu-i">Buahihehu</span>… Very well!” Leo Major enjoys being prompted up.
“<span class="mu-s">You</span>, call <span class="mu-i">us</span>.” Matilda tells Suan De that she’s the one responsible for alerting the danger. Oliver tends to exaggerate.
“I already have an idea of what kind of man he is.” Suan De nods. There's one thing that you can say for certain about the Slob Dragon and that is that she's a team player. You can feel she’s being extra cooperative; out of guilt, perhaps? You don’t blame her for what happened to your apartment, but guilt makes some people act funny.
With that (and an oversized magnifying glass), the explorer team leaves the nest to find the answers about what brought down the gargoyle.
You all settle down around the man’s corpse to watch TV and wind down, even if a certain hobo protests.
“Dear teacher, why are we frittering our time? I know there must be a lesson or two you can instruct me on!” Ichie is way too eager to learn. “I must learn how to wield my new abilities as soon as possible.”
“Hmm, did you change your mind? Not interested in nursing him back to help anymore?” Matilda recalls.
“Oh, I never back down on my word! But he’s been effectively treated…” Ichie knows Wilma did a good job and has nothing better to do.
“Ichie, everyone’s tired. Let’s just relax for the rest of the day, you earned it.” You tell your pupil to behave.
“Earned it? Everyone knows the best reward for finishing your task is to earn more tasks to complete!” Ichie is prime mobile phone whale material.
“Working yourself to the bone won’t get you far, Ichie. Quite the opposite. You’ll whittle down until you can’t move a muscle.” Ruby invites Ichie to calm down. “Lay down next to me and let’s enjoy each other’s company.” She feels like it’s her job to instruct your new hobo on how to be normal. Like an older dog teaching a puppy to behave.
“Very well!” The hyperkinetic Ichie accepts orders from you and Ruby, no one else.
