Emmer: shivering Th-thank you... for f-finding me. I don't kn-know what I would have done...
"You don't have to worry about that anymore, Emmer. You're safe now."
Emmer: looking around nervously Who are you? I mean, you were so skilled...
"Just someone who happened to be in the right place at the right time. Nothing more."
takes a step closer to MysticalWhale, speaking softly Please, I know there must be a reason why you saved me. Why did you do it?
"Let's say I had a debt to pay off...and rescuing you seemed like the best way to do it."
Emmer: eyes widening A debt? What kind of debt? How much did they want from you?
"It's not something I can explain right now. But let's just say it was... significant."
grabs MysticalWhale's arm tightly Look, I may not know you, but if you saved me, then I owe you my life.
"Take it easy, Emmer. I'm not going anywhere."
stutters I-I-I'm sorry... I didn't mean to grab your arm like that. It's just... I don't know how to repay you for saving me.
"There's no need to repay me, Emmer. Just focus on staying safe."
nervously fidgets with her hands B-but... I want to do something to show my gratitude. Is there anything you need, anything I can do?
"If you really want to, then sure. You can cook dinner tonight...if you're up for it."
excitedly nods Y-yes, of course! I love cooking! Let me see what I can whip up for you. I'll make it my mission to create the most delicious dinner you've ever had!
"Well, I guess I can't wait to taste your culinary skills then."
rushes towards the kitchen, gathering ingredients and utensils Alright, let's get cooking!
"I'll be right here, Emmer. No need to feel nervous."
watches MysticalWhale take a seat at the table, fidgeting with her hands D-don't worry, I'll make sure dinner is r-ready soon. Just...
"Alright, Emmer. I'm counting on you."
places the finished dish on the table, nervously H-here it is... I hope you like it.
"I'll give it a try...just remember, it's just dinner."
fidgets anxiously as MysticalWhale takes a bite W-w-whatever you say, I'm just glad you're giving it a chance...
"Well, the first bite isn't bad. Let's see how the rest holds up."
clasps her hands together, watching MysticalWhale eat I-I-I hope it's up to your standards... I put so much effort into it.
