Yoon sets out to travel with Hak and Yona, in search of the power of the Four Dragons to assist her in her journey. Yoon is excited to finally see the world for himself. He helps Hak keep Yona hidden, as Hak and Yona are technically fugitives. He watches as Yona trains relentlessly to learn how to fight like Hak can. Yoon admires her dedication, and he even gives her pointers, despite not being effective with weapons himself.

Soujuurou breaks free, but the remaining part of the vine slaps him hard in the face (18).
Ai is afflicted with Sleep next, but at least she got her attack off! The same goes for Aerith, who is also hit with a big ol' Sleep. Like Ai, though, she hit those plants pretty damn hard. So did Atem, though he gets away with it scot-free.
Schneider pats the plant...but the plant releases her and attempts to smack her, too, but it misses (3).
The two plants are withering, but they are still hanging around for at least another fight. ]

[ that is NOT a good place to fall asleep in.
soujuurou runs over to her, picking her up in his arms with incredible ease. at least she won't get consumed by horrible living vines while she's napping. ]
no subject
Hehe, good mornin'.
no subject
but that doesn't stop him from looking down at her with a small smile, relieved to see her. he'll do his best to take her farther away, but she can continue clinging to him if she wants. ]
Heh, good morning. You shouldn't be falling asleep on those vines-- they're pretty dangerous.
no subject
My bad~ This is definitely no place to take a nap. Ah, did you get hurt?
[ Seeing the bloodstain, she reaches up to run a hand across his cheek gingerly. What happened? Is he in need of healing? ]
no subject
though when she runs a hand across his cheek, his breath does stop for a moment, eyes widened just slightly as he looks down at her. ]
Ah, well, I guess I got hit by the plant when I cut it. But Josh healed me pretty quickly, so it's not bleeding anymore. [ he pauses, looks ahead at the remains of the vines, and then at ai. ]
How about you? How are you doing?
no subject
I can keep going. I'm A-OK. Idols are tougher than we look.
[ Ai flashes him a smile, letting go of him (reluctantly) to get to her feet and pump her fist in the air. She doesn't want to let the things that frighten or unsettle her show. She probably worried him enough, falling asleep like that. ]
no subject
[ even though his breathing and heartbeat are calm, that's just the results of years of training. in reality soujuurou is just as frightened as the next person. minds are full of things that aren't normal or possible in the real world, and that unknown has him uneasy.
he'll help her get down, arms falling to his sides. ]
But I'm more concerned about Yoon right now. So until we save him from himself, I can't let myself do that.
no subject
[ Soujuurou? Scared? She would never have guessed. She had held onto him because he appeared a calm and steadying presence. Her smile softens, becoming less forced and more genuine. It makes her feel better knowing she isn't the only one. ]
Then you were even braver to come to my rescue. [ And braver than her to admit his fears. Sorry, Soujuurou, she will keep her little lie, if only so she can become the kind of presence he can rely on. ] I've got your back, don't worry. We'll save him together.
no subject
[ an important part of the wild is to know when to run and when to stand your ground and fight. soujuurou has done both plenty of times, but that doesn't mean that the fear isn't always there like an old friend. ]
But thank you. [ whether it's genuine or not is not a thought that even crosses soujuurou's mind. he has no reason not to trust ai's words, so he takes them at face value. she wants to help him, and he'll gladly accept it. ] I think it helps to know that there's someone watching my back.
no subject
He grits his teeth, and narrows his eyes. His healing magic isn't as powerful as some of the others. He's not as confident in that as he is dispelling status-like effects.
Ugh, he hates to gamble at a time like this.]
Re-Horakhty!
[He casts Me Patra to cleanse Ai!]
no subject
Time to wake up, Aerith~! Now is not the time for a nap.
no subject
Thanks...
[ As she's still very much out of it, however, she'll just watch everyone do their thing. ]
no subject
Eat up. Not very good without olive oil but it should do the trick.
no subject
I appreciate it.
no subject
a little injury like this has never stopped him before, and it won't start now. ]
no subject
please hold!
The plants break.
What follows, though... ]
