Something else? Certainly. Ask away.

[He seems a little embarrassed and hesitates for a moment.]

I do not know if I mentioned this at all. But I am training with someone. They are teaching me how to defend myself. But... one of their rules, if I wish to learn, is that I am not allowed to go into the forest until they say.

[ . . . Hates. It.]

I managed to convince them to allow me to at least hunt around the edges of the forest. I would like to try and contribute a little. But... I am only allowed to go ten feet inside.

[ . . . Glancing away, a little pouty and feeling childish.]

And that is only if I have two others with me who are capable of defending themselves or others.

[strateelgic]

Ten feet is so small of a distance it hardly seems worth the effort of finding people for. I do keep myself busy, you know.

... But if you absolutely must go in, I suppose you can give me a call and I'll see if I can make time.

[heavyliesthecrown]

It is only to retrieve whatever I might be able to shoot. It feels so silly.

[strateelgic]

The woods can be a dangerous place. They're just looking out for your well-being.

[heavyliesthecrown]

I am not Little Red Riding Hood. I will not be devoured by the Big Bad Wolf the moment I set foot into the forest. But, I do try to keep that in mind. I know it comes from a place of care.

[strateelgic]

You would make a very cute Little Red.

[heavyliesthecrown]

Maybe I prefer to be the Big Bad Wolf.

[strateelgic]

[Pfffffufufufu....]

[heavyliesthecrown]

Hmph! I shall show you someday that I can be intimidating if necessary too.

[strateelgic]

I look forward to seeing an intimidating little cat.

[heavyliesthecrown]

Be careful. Cats eat fish after all.

[strateelgic]

A house cat would still have trouble with an eel.

[heavyliesthecrown]

How do we really know it is just a housecat?

[ No. Even he...knows... the truth. But he can believe in his heart.]

[strateelgic]

[Pats him gently between the ears.]

[heavyliesthecrown]

[Ugh. This is all because he looks cute with cat ears. He never thought he would curse himself for such a thing before. No one is ever intimidated by him when he gets serious. The world is a cruel place.]
