Video UN: Whatever
[Alec is sitting in his room at the inn, trying to ignore the spectral whippet gnawing on a squeaky bone behind him. He doesn't know where she got it and he isn't inclined to ask]
Right. [he rubs his eyes with a hand and then stares at the camera]
Let's get this shit show organized. The sooner we get everything done, the sooner we can leave so it's time to figure out who can do what. Who are you and what can you do? What are your strengths and weaknesses? We should have some sort of formal training so that like can work with like and eventually figure out how to work together as a cohesive unit in case something big comes along.
[he doesn't want to even think of what that might be]
Also are there any legitimate doctors around? And I don't mean someone who can do 'healing' [he waves his hands] whatever the fuck that means, but someone with medical training. If you have that... let's talk.
[he has a small problem that if he doesn't get it fixed will soon turn into a very large problem so he's doing what he can]

Audio, un: Koromaru
But I'm Ken Amada, I use a spear in battle and I know how to fight long range. I can't really fight when the enemy is close so I have to resort to my teammates to help me out.
[Pause] And I can talk to animals but I'm still trying to figure out what else animal magic can do.
no subject
What are you doing fighting anyone with a spear? You could get hurt. [he can't believe this place]
Aye, animals are mine too. Not great in combat but apparently there are other uses. How old are you anyway? Shouldn't you be in school?
no subject
I know but don’t worry, I’ve been fighting with a spear for quite sometime. I can handle it.
[Would that be enough to convince him?]
Well...I’m 13 and I’m already in school. Why do you ask?
no subject
I mean you should be there now. Or else being a kid. You shouldn't have to worry about...this. ... Do you have anyone looking after you?
no subject
[He didn't mean to sound a little annoyed but it was sure a struggle to be constantly reminded of his age sometimes.]
But yes, I have Alice, Nero and a couple of his family members back home helping me out! However, I wouldn't worry, I'm still learning how to take care of myself too!
no subject
As for being reminded of his age, it was something he'd better get used to. He'd feel it all his life except for that golden decade between twenty-five and thirty-five, after youth has reached full blossom and before the existential crises hits and it's all frantic pace and then the downhill slide into irrelevancy and death.
A lot to look forward to.]
Good. Take your time and let yourself be looked after. There's no need to rush into things.
no subject
It sure was strange trying to be a normal teenager and yet be helpful.]
I know but that won't stop me from trying to help out here. It seems like it's the least I could do.
no subject
He tried not to think of it, but the image remained etched into his mind like the sand blinding in the sun and the relentless sound of the water]
Aye... [he clears his throat] I'll count on you then. [it may come across patronizing, but he means it in a multitude of ways. In the meantime he plans to figure out who exactly is acting as guardian of the boy, just in case]
