|| I figured out all were you a while back! I don't remember who it was that told me. But I am still surprised there aren't others out there! idk how you do it 😂
I struggle myself with keeping up public accounts in tiny verses...

❝ Oh great. An I-O-U, that'll totally improve my fortune. ❞ despite his sarcasm, this is still the first friendly person he's met in the dungeon in a while... (💧)

And he's not in any hurry to end thier companionship.

It just means there's more people on the list to look for down here...

❝ Ah? I thought you were tryin' to make a means off this dungeon. What good would it do you to share that stuff with me? ❞ -- he's still interested, though.
Course he is.

She's right about that — no one has a straightforward answer for their circumstance. He's debated a few times already if it would or wouldn't be easy to overpower this person if it came down to it.

Though her last proclamation there did draw his pause...
+

❝ Well .ᐟ Sounds like you've got it all worked out, huh? ❞ It's complementary and mostly genuine, but there's still a short flash of teeth.

❝ Down here there's all the time in the world, right? ❞

❝ — Nice to meet you. ❞
Maybe there's a little bit of déjà vu going on here, but he just disregards the feeling and returns his own name and introduction.

❝ 𝘊𝘢𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘢. And I'd be willing to help out, sure, but I've been in some rough waters lately myself, if you catch my drift... ❞

Coming out? She was making trips?
It's kind of impressive — she's seemingly made the most of her circumstance and had herself a system running.

He won't admit to it, but he's a little envious.

❝ Yeah? ❞ Still, it was hard not to guffaw just a little. ❝ And then what? When you're done here? ❞

what a... motley sort of crew he was describing. no, he hadn't yet seen anybody that fit those descriptions... not that he could identify, at least. well... maybe❔️
— no,

"Sorry, I can't say that I have. 'specially that last one, I feel like I'd remember .ᐟ "

eeh? that was it? she was just a victim of circumstance? and still so cheery.... ( 💧 )
it's a little creepy, actually.

"yea—, you know, there's a whole lot more than just 'knowledge' down here..."

how could she possibly be prepared? — not like that was his problem, though.

"Ohh, I see. You're one of those intellectual types. Awfully bold to be making the pilgrimage alone, don't you think?"

"𝘕𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘫𝘰𝘣 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘴."
Down to the city, when he hadn't called that place home in how many years now?
It was an impressive level of worldliness... didn't seem like this person was struggling much with the dungeon's effects, either. Little wear and tear.

kind of weird, wasn't it?
"I... think so?" it occurred to him he may as well ask for the reverse.
"--and you?"

she's got... some enthusiasm, despite everything. it's a little unusual.
" for fortune, same as most. "
it came with a shrug. " and yourself? "

that earns a laugh. it's a good title, with all things considered.

" the —𝘴𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘥 normal person? lucky you, I wouldn't get used to that down here... "

Still, he took note of the name and gave a nod. Then his own, and offered a handshake and a flash grin.

"—been taking inspiration from the roaches."

( how exhausting... .ᐟ but he's not doing much better. 💧)

⠀uh, you are . . .❔️

Ahh, good to see you again.

( aw c'mon! he's been down here this whole time! -- but he's just as confused to see another person. he's blinking too. )

( she looks beat, but it's kind of funny. )

yaaawwn. 💨✨️
