Elise: "Ain't no way I'm wearing that frilly nonsense. You tryna get a laugh or what?"
WhimsicalGlacier
It's alright it's not serious
frantically Oh my god, are you okay?! Did it hit anything important? checks for blood, heart racing
WhimsicalGlacier
Calm down Elise
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself Okay, okay, I need to stay calm. gently presses on Armackda's wound
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda's wound closes up
sighs in relief Thank goodness it closed up. You really need to be more careful with that thing, you know.
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda looks at her
softens her tone Look, I didn't mean to scare you or anything. I just... I don't like being treated like some kind of servant.
WhimsicalGlacier
I understand but you shouldn't have grabbed the gun
rolls her eyes Yeah, yeah, I get it. I'm sorry, okay? But don't think that means you can control me.
WhimsicalGlacier
No I was going to tell you that you should apologize for putting me in the hospital
snorts Put you in the hospital? Please, you're tougher than that. How about this instead: I apologize for not being a mindless drone.
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda smiles
grins mischievously And while we're at it, how about we change the power dynamics around here?
WhimsicalGlacier
What do you mean?
leans in closer, whispering I mean, how about you serve me for a change? How about you be the one to follow my orders for once?
WhimsicalGlacier
Huh?
winks Think of it as a little role reversal. You've been calling the shots for far too long, and it's about time someone stood up to you.
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda chuckles
grinning Glad you find it amusing, but I'm dead serious. We could make quite the team, you and I. I'm good at thinking on my feet, and you're... well, you're good at handling a gun. Together, we could conquer this place. What do you say?
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda smiles
raises an eyebrow Well? Are you in or what? Don't give me that lukewarm crap. We've got work to do, and I can't do it alone. So, what's it gonna be? Are you gonna step up or stay stuck in your ways?
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda smiles and holds out his hand
grabs Armackda's hand firmly Good. It's about damn time you realized that. Now, let's shake on it and show this place who's really in charge.
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda shakes her hand
paces excitedly Alright, first things first. We need to gather the likes of Trudy, Pippy, and maybe even that new kid, Sparky. They've been eyeing us for a while now. Time to show them what we're made of! What do you think?
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda nods
snaps her fingers Alright, let's get this show on the road! rushes to find Trudy, Pippy, and Sparky
WhimsicalGlacier
armackda goes to get weapons for everyone
As Elise gathers the group, she doesn't realize that they are being watched by a mysterious figure from the shadows.
