[slashay]

[HIS EYES NARROW AND HE IS ABOUT TO THROW DOWN except then Aymeric's talking about a whole horde coming to them, so both of them are going to get rekt, probably.]

[allomantic]

[dammit

but anyways, after a little bit (by which i mean feel free to ignore this until he gets more info) she's addressing him.]

...What do you think we should do?

[slashay]

[i assume they've moved away from Aymeric somewhat so they can chat without just discussing him right in front of his salad but:]

Well... He's saying Ishgard'll be okay, so Vax'll be fine, yeah? And it seems like he wants to get this done and over ASAP. Maybe the sooner we fight that dragon, the sooner we can leave, too.

[allomantic]

That's what he's saying, but... Don't these things have a way of being unpredictable?

[not that she wants to split up, but she also doesn't want to leave behind their definitely real vax. that being said, dragging him along on their dragon adventure also seems bad. hmmm. after another moment of thought:]

...I think you are right.

[even though she's stressed!!]

[slashay]

[HE'S ALSO STRESSED. THEIR VERY REAL VAX, AND ALSO THEIR AYMERIC THAT MIGHT BE REAL, TOO??? HE'S SWEATING.]

Mm... Yeah, they do. [But he's also thinking along the same lines of "taking an injured man out to battle a really strong dragon probably isn't a good idea". Anyway he's all for just attacking this bigass dragon but fIRST:]

--D'you think that's Aymeric...?

[allomantic]

If it wasn't, he wouldn't have called you that, right...? I've heard of strange things happening to memories in these places. Maybe he has forgotten temporarily.

[wild......]

Should we really leave him here?

[slashay]

[Well now that he's like semi-convinced Aymeric is their missing fourth member:]

If he's really Ayme, then leaving him here might be a bad idea... But if he thinks he's the commander whatever-it's-called for real right now, then we probably won't just be able to talk him into going wherever with us.

[LISTEN he knows Aymeric is really the Lord Commander in real life but NOT LIKE THIS!! IN THEIR FAKE CYOA!!]

Sounds like they're gonna be sticking behind to deal with the horde...

[allomantic]

Maybe that means he and Vax will be able to help each other...?

[THEIR DEFINITELY REAL CYOA PARTNERS i hate it here]

If that's the case, I guess we should go deal with the dragon, but...

[slashay]

If that guy's super injured, it's gonna be a problem, but... I mean.

[THEIR DEFINITELY REAL CYOA PARTNERS!! HE'S TIRED. He just sighs.]

--I'll... yeah. I trust that they've got what they need here to hold back whatever shows up. Let's just beat that other guy and get everyone out. We can deal with Ayme's weird memory stuff later.
