OVERT FLIRTATION WILL GET YOU ANYWHERE, YOU KNOW.
right. your vow. i’m glad you’ll be resting up. you need it. i still don’t think it would be wise to go out too far, though.
It is my duty and vow, Arcade. ...I will rest yet another day. I am feeling far better than I was upon my arrival.
and you do not need to. i assure you, there is no need for you to fight against any forces. you need to rest.
...I suppose I have not made much progress against the forces that be here in the city of Vegas.
you’re staying here. there is no more evil over there than there is over here.
...But there might be evil to vanquish over there. It seems an evil place to be.
( but? * ) i’m making an effort to keep you safe. it’s no problem. it’s part of my job.
But–! Oh! Thank you, I won't fall off this way :)
i’m not doubting your ability to walk far. what i am telling you is that i am not allowing you to walk that far.
I can walk [very] far.
if you walk too far, you will eventually run into the ocean. at which point, you will need to swim for a long time to reach land again. you absolutely under no circumstances are going to be walking that far.
I don't know how to imply things. I'm just asking, what happens if I walk too far?
oh! uh, yeah — yeah, you slew that great beast alright. [ forced smile. ]
He doesn't think I slew the great beast.
i’m pretending i don’t know what they’re arguing about for my own peace.
i missed you, too. are you doing well?
HIIIII i missed you
. . . fine. one of the courier’s friends. good luck.
but I trust you :(
