"Found it." Flat in the dirt. "Twas tied to the other."

You'll learn to embrace pain.

Tactical!

Too distracted by a kind woman to notice the fleeing hunter.

Sorry, I'm... distracted.

familiar form of @wastedcrusade.bsky.social. Stock-still with shock, a loud gasp crosses the cacophony of voices.

As they enter, a wave of voices collides against them. It feels so suddenly uncomfortable, standing here alone, and strangely worse to be separated from Brash. Their eyes scan over the room for a sign of the front desk. A shout comes from the bar, and they land instead upon the Hell-touched,

Well he didn't set the claymore...

He's just a little amnesiac guy....

"I've seen a lot of men." A beat, a little longer than hers... "...Oh! Traveling with you, you mean? I did see a group, they were–" [Survival: 💥 Nat 20] "–this way, just southwest of here. Talking about a woman they needed to find, I think? I could show you where I saw them."

"Eight in the morning." Tired blinking. "....What was the question?"

Death, rebirth, I crave an end to this madness.

that's sad! i think all the time. it's every girl's REAL superpower!

I refuse to believe kindness is a lost cause.

"What's a bunny gecko?"

"I actually don't think..."
