[ do you have any idea how ridiculous this sounds, even to the guy who's used to fighting constellation monsters? ]

Your kingdom for Midas' hand, in other words.

[yellowhasthechest]

If I understood that reference, maybe.

[meteorstorm]

King Midas was the subject of a legend where everything he touched turned to gold.

[yellowhasthechest]

[Scoffs a little.]

If only it worked that way.

[meteorstorm]

It's not real, anyway.

[yellowhasthechest]

Mm. That's not quite how it works, but yeah, I wanted it.

[meteorstorm]

I'll take your word for it.

[yellowhasthechest]

[You wouldn't have gotten much more, anyway. It's a secret.]

[meteorstorm]

[ I don't really care to know, anyway ]

[yellowhasthechest]

[Good boy. Getting up and dusting sand off herself, though, so don't fall back.]

I'm going in, I think I have sand in my pockets now.

[meteorstorm]

[ doing the same ]

Better than other places.

[yellowhasthechest]

Definitely.

[But I'm wearing too much clothing for that.]

[meteorstorm]

[ sand is tricky shit ]

It's late.

[yellowhasthechest]

Mm.

Try not to get eaten by a moose on your way back. [Clapping him on the back again.]

[meteorstorm]

[ that was a very subtle flinching ]

I know when and when not to confront things three times my size.

[yellowhasthechest]

Joking, Ryuusei. I was joking.

[meteorstorm]

If I thought you weren't I would've pointed out that they're herbivores.

[yellowhasthechest]

Seriously?

[meteorstorm]

Seriously.

[yellowhasthechest]

Huh.

In that case I kind of regret running.

[meteorstorm]

They may not eat you, but they can still gore you to death.

[yellowhasthechest]

I've probably been hit by worse.

[meteorstorm]

It's still better to leave them be.

[yellowhasthechest]

Fine.

[No fun at all.]

[meteorstorm]

They didn't do anything to you; there's no reason to do anything to them.
