"You were getting arrested, remember?" he called. "We broke you out. Why were you getting arrested, again?"

"I don't know!" Yrank cried back. "I was wondering why they arrested me in the first place! Oh forget it.."

A Brave Adventurer stepped in front of Yrank, gripping a knife. "Nogard, some help please! NOGARD!"

Nogard brandished his spear, commanding the muffins to curve through the air and bombard the adventurers from every direction.

"You were getting arrested, remember?" he called. "We broke you out. Why were you getting arrested, again?"

Livetha and Beosta sound through the battle. Livetha squeaked battle cries and Beosta grinned. 

Scudding finally. 

@the h 

Beosta slammed into the man threatening Yrank, then tapped into her bond for enough strength to break his ankle with a stomp. “You good ? Need a dagger or something?”

Shoe jogged up beside Beotsa, pulling the pad back out. You can talk again?

Beosta skidded to a stop. Everyone else seemed to have things under control. “For the moment, it appears. But I’m not yelling at Livetha. Oh— I still owe you a question.” She was still breathing kind of hard and spattered with blood here and there (she hadn’t killed anyone, just a lil maiming). The battle had energized her  

Livetha twitched her tail at Beosta in warning to not say rude things and flew off into the battle again, since she’d thoroughly enjoyed it.

Just a 'lil maiming I love it 

Shoe thought for a moment.

The man on the ground lurched towards him suddenly and tried to grab at his ax. Shoe kicked him back down and swung the weapon down on the man.

A moment later, he picked the pad and pencil back up from where he had dropped them.

What do you want me to know?

Beosta frowned. “That’s a mean question. I grew up in a small village, I guess. And had two younger siblings.” 

For a while. 

She looked away and smoothed the features of her face back to normal.

Nogard flicked a soccer-sized muffin at the adventurers head. It flew past as Beosta knocked the man down.

Nogard redirected the muffin to the strange beast fighting Subversion. What kind of creature is that? he wondered. He'd never seen anything like it before.

Shoe looked at her, curiosity and uncertainty swirling inside him.

Someone screamed in the distance.

He hesitated a moment.

Had? he finally wrote.

Shoe handed him a muffin-gun instead.

Yrank looked at the muffin-gun. The muffin-gun looked at him (figuratively, of course). "I could get used to this, ha!" Yrank chuckled, getting a feel for the device.

Shoe wrote a note to the man: Just don't hold the trigger down for longer than a few seconds.

"Oh." She laughed, but had a hard time making it sound real. "I... left." 

Totally didn't get disowned or anything. Nope.

"I see..." Yrank was curious, but didn't push. This wouldn't have any repercussions, would it?

It shoots muffins at a rate that increases exponentially, so unless you wanted to get knocked over and have your hands driven through your chest, I suggest you don't hold it down for more than a few seconds at a time. He underlined that last part multiple times.

You should be fine though.

Yrank laughed uneasily, not knowing how to react. So he drew a smiley face on the paper =).

Shoe gave him a flat stare. I'm mute, not deaf.

Shoe threw his hands up in a sign of apology. I didn't mean to upset you. Sorry.

She took a breath. "Whatever. Does that answer your question?" 

Livetha wasn't sure she liked Beosta's tone. She did like Shoe, though.

Not really, Shoe thought.

Yes, he wrote.

He had more questions now, but he didn't want to pry.

Yrank knows that Shoe isn't deaf, but chose to do that as he had nothing to say on the matter, and chose to draw a smiley.

ARE WE BEING PUNISHED IN THIS SOCIETY FOR KINDNESS NOW, HMM?

 

Yrank tested out the Mufgun™ by shooting down a Brave Adventurer who got to his feet.

"Hey Nogard," Yrank boasted while his friend fought off the last of the BA, "pretty sweet huh?"

"'kay. Well, bye." Beosta jumped back into the battle with much more ferocity than before. 

Blood will never grow wheat, her father's voice echoed for the millionth time, bouncing around her skull.

She didn't care. She didn't care!

That was supposed to be comedic lol

Shoe has trouble conveying emotion through writing too
