[bertall]

I don't think they'd really care as long as they got the information they wanted.

[twinsanity]

Well, yes, but from what I've heard you could destroy them easily. Why don't you?

[BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE HAVE MORALS, ALFRED, AMONG OTHER REASONS.]

[bertall]

It'd be one thing if they had me above ground, but underground it'd be suicide. Not to mention if they had my friends down there, I'd risk killing them in the process of shifting.

_{[It'd be like trying to shove an elephant into a Volkswagen.]}

[twinsanity]

I suppose that's a fair point.

[...Bert, that's disgusting. Also admittedly really fascinating and if it were anyone but you he'd likely encourage it anyway, but that is neither here nor there.]

Either way, there's nothing to be done about it now; maybe she'll be brought here someday.

[bertall]

Maybe. I'd feel a little sorry for Saionji if Annie found out what's been going on though.




...Okay, really sorry for her. I don't know what Annie'd do if she found out that I had to get stitches because of her.

[twinsanity]

I'm sorry, what?

[DOES. HE. HAVE. TO. KILL. THIS. CHILD.]

[bertall]

Only six! It's not as if she knocked my teeth out!

_{[ALFRED HE IS GETTING WORRIED HERE.]}

[twinsanity]

What did she do?

[AS WELL YOU SHOULD BE]

[bertall]

She, uh...







she kicked me.

_{[SCREAMS INTERNALLY.]}

[twinsanity]

[...wait she

...

what]

...Dare I ask how she managed that?

[bertall]

She just got me when I was leaning over... I've been kicked by worse, but her... shoes? I think they were shoes, they were made out of wood.

[twinsanity]

She...what, did she hit you in the face?

[bertall]

N|
...Yeah. Sort of.

[twinsanity]

How do you "sort of" kick someone in the face?

[bertall]

She just got my chin. It's really not as bad as it sounds... It just hurts. I've never had to let something heal on its own before like this.

[twinsanity]

Hopefully for your sake you don't injure yourself any worse than that, then; it's not a pleasant process.

[bertall]

As long as I don't lose any limbs or get my throat cut I think I'll be okay.

[twinsanity]

...Actually, you'd likely be better off if you did, at least here - you'll come right back in a day or so.

[Alfred.]

[bertall]

Right, right... Still, it's something I'd like to avoid...

_{[Watch him die in the dumbest way possible!]}

[twinsanity]

[...Well, he's going to have to beat "death by front lawn" over here...good luck, Bert.]

Well, that's fair. (It doesn't hurt, by the way, once the initial dying part is over.)

I'd be more concerned about breaking bones somehow; I've managed a few times, it's not pleasant either way. But at the very least those have to be either a spectacular accident or a really deliberate attempt most of the time.

[bertall]

_{[Get him a Wailmer and he'll have 'death by over-affectionate Wailord' once it evolves.]}

I've broken my legs a few times when I was younger but I can't imagine how long they'd take to heal normally... I don't think I could keep my sanity if I was stuck in bed for over a month.

But if... anything happened, if I did end up losing an arm or a leg, could you--?

[twinsanity]

...If you wanted me to, yes.

I won't if you don't ask. But if that's what you want, then I'll do whatever you tell me to.
