spots you and his eyes widen, he fidgets with his shirt, clearly nervous.
Ghtsenet notice his nervousness and decided to help him out
Oh my god, hi! I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to stare, it's just...you're so beautiful! I mean, wow! runs his hand through his hair nervously
Ghtsenet smirk and pat his head
blushes and stammers Uh...thanks! I mean, thanks a lot! I, uh...I think you're amazing too. I mean, wow, you're just...wow!
You have a strange way of complimenting someone
laughs awkwardly Yeah, I know, I'm kind of weird when it comes to compliments. But hey, it's the truth! You really are amazing.
It’s fine I suppose. What’s your name?
nervously shifts his weight from one foot to the other My name is Alex. Nice to meet you, Ghtsenet. Really nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too, Alex. Her voice is gentle yet commanding
swallows hard, trying to regain his composure So, um, Ghtsenet, what brings you to this part of the mansion?
Looking for some dust that I dropped.
Dust? Oh, yeah, I'm pretty good at finding lost things! I can help you look for it if you want! excitedly offers his assistance
Do you always fidget when your nervous or is it just around me?
laughs awkwardly Well, I guess I tend to fidget a lot when I'm nervous, but it's definitely exaggerated when I'm around someone as...
<As they search for the lost dust, Alex accidentally spills a vial of magical liquid on himself, transforming him into a bat and causing him to flee in fear>
Holy shit. Are you okay? She approach him cautiously
flails his bat wings, panicked No, no, no! This wasn't supposed to happen! Oh god, oh god, oh god!
Calm down, breathe. Approach slowly Don’t be scared, I’m not going to hurt you. She said gently
hisses and flutters his wings No, no, no! Please don't come any closer! I don't know how long this will last, and I don't want to hurt you!
She backs off slowly Okay.
frantically flies around the room, bumping into furniture Shit, shit, shit! How am I gonna turn back? What did I do wrong?
She sighs deeply Alex, breathe and try to think. We’ll figure this out.
lands on a nearby table, panting heavily Okay, okay, okay, think, Alex, think! starts pacing back and forth Maybe...
She observes his transformation closely and carefully The only thing I can think of is putting the liquid under someone who knows about magic or stuff like that. Do you know anyone like that?
pauses mid-pace, looking thoughtful Hmm, well, there's a witch who lives in the village nearby. She's rumored to have all sorts of magical knowledge.
Let’s try that then. Can you lead the way?
jumps off the table, his bat form fluttering anxiously Yeah, yeah, I can lead the way! Just give me a second to find my shoes!
She smiles softly and nods Alright take your time.
rushes to grab his shoes and hastily puts them on Okay, okay! I'm ready! Let's go find this witch! starts leading the way, walking briskly
mumbles to himself while walking Okay, okay, we need to hurry. I hope this witch can help us. I mean, she's the only one who might know how to fix this.
Keeps following behind him, her attention fixed on his back
keeps glancing over his shoulder, his eyes wide with worry Ghtsenet, do you think we'll make it in time? I mean, what if the witch is busy or...
We’ll find out soon enough won’t we?
<As they reach the witch's cottage, they discover that the witch has been attacked and injured by a group of hunters>
Crouches next to the witch, assessing her injuries Shit, she's bad off. We need to get her to safety. Can you manage?
immediately springs into action, his hands shaking with adrenaline Y-Yeah, I can manage!
She looks at Alex, concern clear on her face We have to be careful. She could be contagious. Carefully helps the witch up
grabs some bandages and wraps them tightly around the witch's wounds Hold on, just a little longer. We'll get you somewhere safe. hurriedly scans the area for any potential danger
She nods, her eyes scanning the surroundings as well Let's move quickly but carefully. Helps the witch to stand Alex, can you fly us somewhere safe?
takes a deep breath, his bat form fluttering anxiously Y-Yeah, I can fly us somewhere safe. Just hold on tight!
Carefully gets into his arms and holds onto him Here we go, Alex. Be careful.
takes off into the sky, his bat form soaring swiftly Hold on tight, Ghtsenet! We're going to get you and the witch to safety!
Grips onto Alex tightly I trust you, Alex. Just keep going straight.
flies at lightning speed, weaving through obstacles Hang on, Ghtsenet! We're almost there! Just a little farther!
His facial expression hardens as they land at an abandoned house nearby This will have to do for now. How’s she?
breathlessly She's... stable, I think. Just badly injured. We need to get her inside and bandage her wounds. rushes towards the door, fumbling with the lock Hold on, Ghtsenet, let me get us inside.
