Boothill had split before the IPC bigwigs arrived to assess the local damages. By the time he and Rappa had finished up at the scene, checking for anyone injured, he bid his Ninja colleague farewell, though not before telling her how SICK her moves were, especially kicking that dice back at him!!

Now that they had taken a bit of a backseat, Boothill had an opportunity to check the buzzing of his device, hunkering down behind some cover. [Rosey 🌹✨] 📲 All good, darlin'. * Voice message converted to text He took a glance around, looking for the reporting Furbos and gave their camera a wave.

It's a long story, fair and beautiful knight. He left to get some lunch, and didn't even get to eat more than two or three bites. 😠 That flamboyant fella from the Strategic Investment Department decided to go on a rampage around Dovebrook, and the Dazzling Ninja, AKA Rappa, couldn't stand by idly.

HUH... That guy from the Intelligentsia Guild showed up outta nowhere... His mere appearance seemed to diffuse the situation already. Those two DEFINITELY had somethin' goin' on between them.

We shall, ʙʏ ᴡʜᴀᴛᴇᴠᴇʀ ᴍᴇᴀɴs ɴᴇᴄᴇssᴀʀʏ, become the 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭 that 𝐩𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐬 money around the world. And, 𝑤𝘩𝑒𝑛 𝑡𝘩𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑠, that heart shall 𝐜𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 by our will alone. #girp #genshinrp #mvrp #animerp #hsrrp #honkairp #impactrp

Unable to dodge the next dice that was coming towards him in time. Boothill quickly emptied the rest of the ammo in the cylinder of his gun at it. It came apart in large chunks around the surrounding area, bouncing off his hat and making metallic clinks as a few pieces pinged off his body.

His heart almost leapt into his throat as Rappa narrowly dodged the dice. After ducking behind cover to reload, Boothill reemerged suddenly, taking aim and unloading a bullet straight into the side of one of the Stoneheart's knees.

As a STUPIDLY large dice came hurtling towards him, Boothill swiftly hopped behind an overturned car for cover, peeking around the side to check where the Foxian was. Popping up quickly, he fired a few rounds of shots at the Stoneheart, co-ordinating with Rappa, syncing up perfectly.

"Hah! You think you know about annoyances? I had t'dump my lunch to get here. Thought there was some kind'a emergency, but turns out it's just some IPC ashvole who can't control himself." Dumb beach. Fires a shot at the ground in front of his feet as he began approaching them.

📲 Boss, what the fudge are you sayin'?! * Voice message converted to text

He joined the scene, skidding to a halt. Sharp eyes scan the surroundings, noting Rappa's location and that Foxian guy (wasn't he an advisor during the War Dance...⁉️) who was currently being messed around with. Tch❗ "Hey, shirtbag! Over here." Gun locked and loaded, sights dead set on his target.

"Hah?? Are you kiddin'? Who wouldn't?" The boss was a big softie, he'd love Argenti.

📲 Right behind ya, Dazzling Ninja! * Voice message converted to text

Eyes fluttering closed, his hand found Argenti's forearm naturally, fingers curling around the sturdy armour as the Knight leaned in to kiss him. "Only a matter of time, I reckon. 'm sure he'll wanna meet ya eventually."

What the fork—? Pausing mid-bite of his burger as he spotted a familiar figure hopping from roof to roof. Somethin' must be up. Finding a bin, he regrettably disposed of his delightful lunchtime treat before heading off in the direction his teammate was heading.

He's far too smitten, all but melting under the simple show of affection, not helping his warm face. "Don't get me wrong, I ain't complainin'." He just wasn't expecting the sudden show of support! "Caught me unawares, is all. You met the boss yet, Rosey?"

(⸝⸝๑﹏๑⸝⸝) "That's one way of puttin' it..." He's grumbling, but he would do anything for those guys.

What the fudge.. (Pulling the brim of his hat down.) C'mon, guys...!

Huh?? He's going to regret asking, isn't he? "Like what..?"

Well, dang it, now he's curious. "...It is?"

😵‍💫❗ "Why're you still readin' that crud?!"

😳‼️

🤨 How the fork do you know about that??

Yeah, sure. Water. Maybe dump some over his head, too. "I'll be alright, it'll pass. Whatcha readin'?"

🥵 "All good, Rosey. Just parchin' all of a sudden." WHO is trying to milk Argenti online?? Give him their usernames.

Gulp. So thirsty all of a sudden.

It ain't his fault, and the hat was helping; all he could see of his ever-shifting hair were the ends the hung over his shoulders. "Yup... Had some weird lil raccoons askin' me to answer sone questions for an interview earlier about it..."

This was really trippin' his eyes out!! 😵‍💫 Plucking his hat from his head, the Ranger reached over and placed it on Argenti instead. "This must be somethin' to do with this Pride Month everyone's been yappin' about."

He'd heard Dan Heng was going through a bit of a rough time... Whipping out his phone, he opened their message thread and hot the microphone icon to begin a speech-to-text message. [Dan Heng] 📲 Love ya, brother. * 𝗩𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁

Staring at his Knight's shifting hair colours, giving a few hard blinks to make sure he was seeing things right. A glance down to the cup of coffee in his hand. "What the fudge is in this coffee??"

Holy fu... fuh.... h.. oly...... (cyborg equivalent of blue screening)

He was no monster; a monster would not resist the dark within that clawed and clawed to get out. Argenti? He went to great lengths to keep that darkness at bay, going so far as to maul himself to just spare others. For that reason, he deserved to be met with a gentle, warm light.

After gathering the first aid supplies and a wet cloth, Boothill took a quick moment to collect and calm himself before returning to Argenti.

He mumbled a quiet 'sorry' as Argenti winced at the touch, aiming to be delicate, though this discomfort was unavoidable given the extent of his injuries. "Go in n' sit down, I'll get the stuff to clean you up."

He couldn't rightly disagree, though this self-sacrifice was hard to bear witness to. Didn't want to think about that promise he'd made to him, how close it might have come to having to fulfil it. Reaching out, a mechanical grip carefully took Argenti's arm.

Holy shirtballs... He looked like he'd been mauled by a tiger... His approach is slow and measured, wary of how shaken the Knight looks as he took him in and the extent of his injuries. "Forkin' hell, Rosey— Nevermind me. Did you do this to yourself..?"

Finding him in the bathroom, he came to a sudden halt at the doorway, concern etched deep into his features as he took in the sight that greeted him. "'Genti?"

After slowly coming back around to himself, the Galaxy Ranger spotted the Furbobo Weekly newsflash, mind immediately darting to his beloved Knight. 𝘍𝘶𝘥𝘨𝘦... 𝘙𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘺❗

War flashbacks to the loss of his planet, family and friends dying around him while he could do nothing but watch helplessly.

(He kept still as Argenti worked, only turning to look over his shoulder at him once, before casting his gaze forward again, suddenly embarrassed and not entirely sure why.) You're good at this.

Just make sure all the screws are nice n tight. (Having a body that needed frequent maintenance like this was a pain in the neck sometimes. Flicking open a compartment in his arm, he plucked out a screwdriver and handed it to Argenti, turning his back to him and gathering his hair out of the way.)

Yup. I ain't steppin' outside until the sun goes down. (Reaching up to wrap his arms around Argenti's shoulders, his shoulder popped with a metallic click, releasing a frustrated sigh as he leaned back.)

You won't hear no complaints from me. 😁 (Flinging the fridge door shut, he marched himself right over to Argenti and backed him up against the counter, caging the Knight in with his arms.) Can think of worse situations t'be stuck in.

(...Glory be to Idrila!) You mean I get you all to myself today? (NAKED?!)
