You two doing alright?
[Private Text to: Talim; PGC Filter]
I'll be in Mahogany tonight. Are you and Ironhide still in town?

When you've been in this world long enough to see and do everything it has to offer, what's left? How do you spend the rest of your time here when there's nothing left to do?

Date: 2013-09-18 07:08 am (UTC)Makes sense. Wise of you.
[He tracks where she's looking, and nods again.]
Yeah, just do not let her take you into the air. It is... difficult.
[Ironhide no, that's just you and your flying phobia.]
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-19 04:49 am (UTC)I'll keep that in mind. [She sweeps her bangs out from her eyes, then continues:] What sort of team do you have? Are they capable of holding their own in a fight?
[Not "are you", but "are they"? Where does she stick you, man...]
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-19 04:57 am (UTC)[He scowls off into the distance, thinking.]
Napalm is made of rock, Egg is similar. Cannons has cannons. They are capable.
I would not work with any less than warriors.
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-19 05:04 am (UTC)Alright. Stay with Talim for now, and keep your team in shape. I'll give you a call once I've got you on a squad. [Same as Katara and Sasuke. She just needs to figure out where to put him. Maybe with Talim on a more permanent basis?] Any questions?
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-19 05:20 am (UTC)[He glances over at the girl, like he's double-checking for her confirmation. He has no plans to leave the area, or Heather, yet. But...]
Where do I contact you, if I need to?
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-19 06:31 am (UTC)Send a message to that number if anything comes up. I'll come to you or send someone to help out.
[Depending on the situation and where he is at the time, of course.]
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-19 06:43 am (UTC)[Regardless, he gives the contact info a once-over, before pulling out his own gear and punching it in.]
[Better this way, then trying to remember it offhand.]
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-19 07:25 am (UTC)[Nip the problem in the bud, cut the head from the snake before it becomes a hydra...things like that. Better safe than sorry.]
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-19 11:51 pm (UTC)[Oh, he knows. That sort of planning would have helped a lot, back home.]
[If they'd had any kind of warning, that is.]
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-20 02:20 am (UTC)[Experience enough to turn her head when Odin snorts and paws the ground; somebody wants to get back on the road now, Trainer!]
Doesn't hurt to have plans, anyway. [A sigh, and she turns back again.] Even if we never get to use them at the rate things are going.
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-20 06:21 am (UTC)[He gives her another nod, then holds out his hand again. The horse's attitude doesn't take a genius to decipher.]
They may improve. Call, when you have need of me.
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-20 07:05 am (UTC)I will. Good luck on the road, both of you.
[Or wherever they go. She lets go of his hand, turning and giving Talim a nod and short but sweet pat on the shoulder unoccupied by her Emolga, before she walks back to her horse. Time to get back on the road herself.]
[ action! ]
Date: 2013-09-20 09:15 pm (UTC)You too.
[There's the barest beat of hesitation. He doesn't... say this to many people. Or any people, really.]
[But he inclines his head to her again, the gesture just shy of a full salute.]
Ma'am.
