[Geese don't scare him. He'll beat them up and eat them if they mess with him.]

For what?

[feytality]

[ well, geese have already tried to murder her so she's terrified! ]

Um... spirit channeling.... it's been a while, so....

[ercnerd]

[He'll kill them.]

Spirit channeling, huh? How's that going?

[feytality]

[ thank u valiant goose knight ]

Well... the training would be a lot better if I had a waterfall to mediate under, but..... dunking my head underwater could work in a pinch, I think..... it's pretty cold, so.

[ercnerd]

Won't you get sick from doing that?

[feytality]

No way! I'm tough, and I'm used to--

[ as per comedic timing, she sneezes ]

[ercnerd]

What are you doing? Hurry up and get out of the water.

[feytality]

T-This is nothing! I can handle it!

...

ACHOO!

[ercnerd]

Just who are you trying to fool?

[feytality]

[ normally she wouldn't be this stubborn but lalli hit on one of her insecurities (tm) ]

It's just a little sneeze! You can barely even heaACHOO!

[ercnerd]

[Lalli is dead.]

. . . Listen here, little lady. Why are you in such a rush? It'll get worse if you stay in there, so come out and go back in later.

[feytality]

[ sieghart please do not kill lalli ]

.... I've been slacking off on my training, so I have to work harder now.

[ercnerd]

[Oh, it's the plight of a nongenius.]

By giving yourself a cold?

[feytality]

[ we can't all be perfect like sieghart ]

My training's usually under a freezing waterfall! So.. my Fey blood will fight it off!

[ conspicuous cough ]

[ercnerd]

You . . . you're actually really cold, aren't you?

[feytality]

N-No, just a little bit...

[ her teeth are chattering ]

[ercnerd]

[This is just sad.

He sighs.]

Right! That's enough fooling around. Get out of the water before you make yourself seriously sick, Maya.

[feytality]

[ hmm ]

[ this is a tough one. lalli's words are ringing in her head.... but also, she is weak to people being stern (tm) with her. ]

... I guess I can take a little break.

[ wades out sadly.. ]

[ercnerd]

Finally.

[He's not the type to be stern for long. As soon as Maya exits, he cracks a smile.]

Want to grab a hamburger?

[feytality]

[ she's sopping wet and shakes herself off like a dog.... so hopefully he's not too close by ]

Y-Yeah.... [ that seems to perk her up a bit ] Gotta train on a full stomach, right?

[ercnerd]

[Puppy . . . Most of the water misses him. He raises his arm on reflex to intercept what few droplets that make it to him before shifting.]

Sure.

Come on. The hamburger's not going to eat itself.

[feytality]

[ now she's gonna toddle after him. burger time! ]

I really converted you, huh?

[ercnerd]

Not having to hunt for it is a great perk.

Are you going to be okay like this? I don't have anything for you to dry yourself off with . . .

[feytality]

See, I told you! [ thanks for listening to her wisdom ]

Geez, you worry too much, I'll be fine.

[ she will get a cold two days later ]

[ercnerd]

I can't help worrying about kids who don't take care of themselves.

[He says it lightly as they move along.]
