Can there be peace..?

[mistaken_for_monster]

[Between the hospital and the battle, Volya's return to base was less than graceful what with Interitus slouching in and lazily grounding itself before Volya just flopped out of the creature before gently being lowered to the floor where he proceeded to lie facedown on the ground and is very unwilling to get up. Too tired. Of course Interitus wasn't too happy with that for reasons, and thus a vine proceeded to poke him in the side.]

Mmrgh... not now. go way... wanna rest.

[Poke. poke. poke.]

Water you later. Lemme sleep..

[PokePokePokePokePokePoke.]

Okay okay... geez..

[Volya struggles to get up, stumbling and grumbling over to the watering can a short distance away before returning to drizzle its contents on his partner, who cooed happily... comment on the ridiculousness of what you're seeing?]

He did... I don't know how he does it but its like he's always around when I need him.

[Interitus continues to coo happily at the watering, clearly appreciating it regardless of who was handling the can.]

[star_of_sad]

For how long do you two know each other?

[mistaken_for_monster]

Almost a year I guess... feels like longer.

[If only because of how he had to live during that time.]

[star_of_sad]

Is this why these knights are after you?

[mistaken_for_monster]

Actually they tried to kill me before Interitus found me. But I guess him saving me gave them even more of a reason...

[There was a plaintive whine from the large creature, a rather odd noise considering his size and general appearance.]

-Its okay... I don't blame you. I'd be dead if you didn't save me anyway.-

[star_of_sad]

[Water, water...]

The fact that a big monster came to your rescue...

It probably makes them think they were right all along to target you.

[mistaken_for_monster]

It probably does... but Interitus here wouldn't hurt anyone. I don't think he has it in him.

[But with all those teeth on its big shoulder mouths? That's kind of optiistic.]

[star_of_sad]

That's right...

[Setsuko recalls the details of the fight.]

You weren't really going for the killing blow, Inheritus. Not even on the Aerogators.

[mistaken_for_monster]

[An odd cooing sound emanated from the massive creature. Volya tilted his head a little as if trying to figure out what exactly was being said.]

He never has as far as I remember...

[star_of_sad]

It feels like a giant misunderstanding... maybe someone is manipulating those knights and telling them that the prophecy says you're evil. Even though you didn't do anything.

But why...?

[mistaken_for_monster]

That's what I want to know...

I'm nothing special at all, who'd want to go to all this trouble to get people to kill me?

[star_of_sad]

That's what I'd like to know, too.

But as long as I have a say in it, I won't let them do that.
