Skylark's Ideal World | Session 1

[idolpro]

Once, there was a maiden...
...who was driven from her land.
Great black stags chased her, and their eyes shone blue.
Monsters scrambled after her through the bush, though they found her not.
Stumbling on a log, she fell and thought to surrender, and end the torment of the hunt—

... ... ...

You're so, so tired.

Why carry on?

... Surely, it's okay to take a break—

Heh. I mean, that's up to him, but...

[ He'd like to think so. ]

She just deadeyes in the distance for a moment. What is with these people being here when they don't know if they're friends with him?

"Have you taken a look at your phone?"

Re: Talk to the girl

[at_heart]

Yes. And I know why we're here — we have to wake him up. Before... [ A tight, one-shouldered shrug. ] Well, they didn't spell it out, but I'm guessing either we wake him up now, or he just doesn't wake up, maybe ever.

[intheshade]

"I don't know either, but he's certainly in no rush to wake up on his own."

[at_heart]

Yeah, figured no one would be, or else they wouldn't need our help. Do you know any more about what makes this place 'ideal' for him?

[ If there's one thing you can say for him, Crane, it's that he's not wasting time! ]

Re: Talk to the girl

At least she can be grateful for that.

"He doesn't have to worry about any kind of shit. I'm here, the pretty boy knight's here, his mom's here, and no one's gonna cause him any trouble that becomes his problem."

She says the last part as if to say, well, but you guys are probably gonna change that.

[ ...mmm. ]

So, people he's missing, people he's lost, and...

[ Trails away. He's not completely sure how to sum up that last one. ]

Fewer responsibilities?
