I guess we should talk when I get back. You know, about yesterday.

Um... I think I'm lost.

[OOC: He went out to find Zelos. Yeah. :|]

[sighs]

Great. So, back to wandering until we just so happen to find something.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

If you've got any better ideas, I'd like to hear them.

[Action]

[trueknight]

Point taken. Let's go.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

[And it's back to wandering, Ratatosk scowling every so often out of frustration.]

I don't get what he sees in you.

[Action]

[trueknight]

Who knows? I guess if you stick around long enough, you'll find out.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

I don't intend to spend any more time around you or any of the rest of his little 'friends' than necessary. My job is to protect Marta, not get all buddy-buddy with the likes of you.

[Action]

[trueknight]

I'm hurt. [Except not.]

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

Too bad.

[He pauses, eyes narrowed as he glances around.]

... it's this way.

[And he strides off into the trees without so much as looking back over his shoulder to ascertain that Yuri is following him.]

[Action]

[trueknight]

[Yep, he's following. Part of him wants this to end up being the wrong way, but most of him just wants to get the hell out of here.]

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

[Unfortunately for you, Yuri, he happens to be going the right way this time. Aren't you lucky.]

[Action]

[trueknight]

[Well hey, at least he doesn't have to spend the night out here.]

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

[When they finally reach the edge of the forest, he turns around to face Yuri.]

You probably want him back now, don't you?

[Action]

[trueknight]

Well, yeah, if all you're going to do is grumble and complain. But hell, you got us out of here, so I'll leave that up to you.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

I'm not surprised... you all really do like that weakling best.

[He shuts his eyes; when they open again, they're the normal shade of green.]

... huh?

[Blinking, he looks around, confused.]

Hey, we're out of the forest. How did we get here?

[Action]

[trueknight]

[He frowns a little but quickly replaces it with a small smile.]

I guess you could say we got lucky.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

[Emil is just going to return that smile.]

I knew you'd get us out of here, Yuri.

[Action]

[trueknight]

Uh ... yeah, about that. It actually wasn't me.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

It wasn't?

[Action]

[trueknight]

Nope. It was you.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

Me? But I didn't...

[Realization.]

... it was him, wasn't it?

[Action]

[trueknight]

... yeah.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

He was the one who got us out. I knew it.

[His fists clench by his sides.]

I can't do anything right...

[Action]

[trueknight]

[... he's starting to think he should've just taken credit for it. He's just way too use to never taking credit for anything to do that.]

That's not true, Emil.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

I couldn't help Zelos, I got you lost in the forest too, and then I couldn't even find my way back without having to rely on him. I just keep messing everything up.

[Action]

[trueknight]

[waves that off]

I think I did a pretty good job contributing to us getting lost out here, actually. And besides, we would've found a way out on our own, eventually. Just because he decided to show up doesn't mean you're messing up; he's just impatient.
