Is that a fountain? About time. [ In one of the rooms they traverse, a small fountain glows in blue. The mage avatar jumps its way towards it in two quick hops, and just like that, he's back to 100% of everything. There were two chests as well, sitting against the wall. He takes the leftmost one and leaves the rest for Tidus. Fur boots? ] These say they boost attack. I'm not a physical fighter in this class, trade with me.
[ They continue to ascend the steps, and at some point, the stairs get weird. The perspective changes, and the VR game forces them to change into first-person, as if they were looking at the stairs themselves. The walls collapse and the stairs look like they're floating against nothing. One wrong move could have their avatars fall to their untimely dooms...Or so it should go. Roland is still jumping up steps, regardless of the perspective change. He mutters something about not being afraid of a challenge, but Tidus hey. If you fall because of his jumping, that's on you obviously. ]
Inigo's fought dragons? Inigo? [ The soft and gentle kid who's always smiling, who kept him company and CRIED for him? ] I'll...ask him about it. Sure. [ It's not that he thinks Inigo couldn't take a dragon, it's more of he feels protective of him already, having seen his vulnerability just a days before, post-mission. What kind of world did he live in that exposed him to that kind of danger; forced him to grow up the way that he did that he couldn't bear seeing his wounds? ] Yeah, the ones we fought can fly. It's fine if you've never fought one. I don't reckon that's a bad thing, with how strong they are. They've put us in bad positions more than once, I'm not looking to fight one again any time soon.
[ WOW HE ALMOST FALLS. BUT HE JUMPS TO THE LEFT AND MAKES A NICE LANDING. Got you punk!! ] Pretty much the same. We've got wyverns kidnapping people for revenge, brutally strong fae folk who can knock you out with one spell, and monsters that belong underwater, all tentacles, fins, and gills. You'll never run out of variety, I can tell you that much. [ The light at the top of the stairs glows brighter. They're close, but a horde of monsters are waiting for them. The knights in armor to be exact. He clicks his tongue against his teeth. THEY HAD TO FIGHT ON THE STAIRS??? ] There's a city in that world that I would have liked to take you to. It's called Hydropolis. You'd have fit in really well.
[ Because he likes underwater sports and they were basically...the most scenic beachy underwater-y city there ever was. He fights back the nostalgia. Not now! ]
