[ oh!! company. he startles a little bit when he realizes someone else is there - puppy ears perking up briefly in emotive reaction before he turns around, and then smiles, setting the tip of the sword in the ground as he bows his head. ]
Oh - this? [ looking at his sword... and then he perks a little further and puts a hand to his heart. ] Yes - I've heard there can be monsters, right? I'll be happy to defend anyone that I can, in every way that I can.
[ silent hill vibes or not. watching aventurine hobble...poor guy.... he makes his way over to come join him, trotting with his usual energy. ]
And...now that I know Karlach's not suffering anymore, I feel a little bit more at ease. [ honestly this was the only thing keeping him in Major Despair. truly his brain is pea sized and dying is no problem when you are rondo eternal optimism ravus ] Plus, we can still talk to the others over there, even if it's just through letters. That's really nice, too. I'm just glad the weekend's over.
How are you feeling, Mr. Aventurine? You're not too hurt, right...? The others noted you were resting, on Saturday.
The weekend's always the worst part. Well, no, the worst part usually starts on a Thursday, and then it's nonstop from there until Sunday.
[ He'll pat the empty space next to him on the bench so Rondo can join him. ]
I'm feeling much better, thank you. I suppose it was my turn when the week before my excursion, nearly everyone in the town was injured or dead besides myself and Nehan.
[ he trots right over and settles down, hands settling in his lap - the first part gets a soft huff. ] Mm... I guess it's the same on both sides, for that.
[ things are great, until they aren't! thursdays, man! having just turned up dead he can unfortunately empathize. and as aventurine continues, he looks mildly horrified, though not surprised, and shakes his head. ]
And... That's - awful, that you had to go on one of those trips, and then - what happened? Was it a monster...? [ was it fire fleas ]
Oh, just the usual psychological distress and trauma of killing fake versions of your loved ones.
[ Yeah, sometimes it happens so often and you talk about it so much that it just becomes one of those things that can be casually spoken about. It had really messed with Aventurine at the time, but he's... recovering... ]
The town is mostly nice. Don't get me wrong. But the second you let your guard down, your mind will be preyed upon.
[ ugh. his emotions do like ten different things - distress and empathy, worry, sorrow. ]
... yes. [ it's not even the first time! damn sometimes IRL makes you do that too!!! THE WORST!!!! rondo nods even with it, though, determination settling in over all. ]
Of course... I will be careful. [ has he ever been careful once in his life? extremely debatable. ] Thank you for the warning... I'll be looking up to your guidance, Mr. Aventurine.

[ Since he's still recovering from cyoa, he's going to find a nearby bench to sit on. ]
How are you adjusting to the new place so far?

He'll give Rondo a friendly nudge with his elbow. ]
Please, you're the one radiating all that hope and optimism. We should be looking to you.
