"...Hm. I wonder if you could do Empathy at a distance."

"I don't have the technique. Kinda don't want it, to be honest."

Permalink

"That's fair. It's not the safest thing ever."

"Also just sounds really uncomfortable. I can spot you if you want to plan to see if it works on the arm."

"Well, I can't do Empathy at a distance, so that would involve touching it, which seems like maybe not a great idea considering what happened at Mo Village. Oh, but you can just warn me not to if it's a terrible idea. Might as well give it a shot."

"Exactly. All you have to do is be theoretically up for it."

"I'm theoretically up for it!"

"I don't mind joining you. I'll get packed for a trip of indeterminate length."

"It's probably for the best that we're leaving; there's really only so long I can be in the vicinity of Lan Qiren before pissing him off so badly he can't help but notice that it's me."

"He can be prickly. I never talk to him without checking it'll go smoothly first."

Permalink

"Smart. He is the fuddy-duddiest of all fuddy-duddies." 

Permalink

"I'm sure there's worse somewhere. I mean, my planet has seven and a half billion people, probably somebody outdoes him."

Permalink

"Okay, with that many people you might be right. But he is definitely the fuddy-duddiest in the world, even if not in all the worlds." 

Permalink

"Perhaps."
