"You did... truely?" He looked up at Kris, his violet eyes large and innocent yet also staring into his soul trying to ascertain if he was telling the truth for not.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Yes! I-- actually liked all of it. A lot .❞ OH? Kris steps forward slightly, making sure to grab one of his hands. I guess that's their way of comforting him . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠIt might work .

“Really…?” He sniffled and stopped crying slightly, instead look up at Kris with while, tear file amethyst eyes. “What parts didn’t you mean?

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 4d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Yeah, I-- oh. You're crying .❞ Kris instantly stops teasing him about it, and just-- backs away a little. They aren't the best at comforting people, doesn't help that they never really received any . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Hey, man. . I-- was just. . kidding. I didn't mean any of it. Some of it, at least .❞

"...shit?" Oh dear. Tears were forming and his lip was trembling... "But the big boom... and the magic... and the... the..." He was practically sobbing now, it was kinda sad... no one had ever been that devastatingly honest with him before. "I'm... i'm not a... a... idiot... you're an idiot..."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 4d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Well, if I had to be honest then--. . I find it kind of impressive. Was cool that you had a whole like intro to that shit. Other than that, it was shit .❞ Okay Kris. Don't randomly poke him ?? ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝You are an idiot .❞

He sighed and deflated even more. "I'm not an idiot... i know you didn't think it was impressive... in fact i get the feeling you're the opposite of impressed." He gave him a sad smile. "You can be honest you know, i won't mind."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 4d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Yeah-- yeah, sure. Impressive. Totally impressive .❞ They wipe some dust from their sweater, grumbling. Someone doesn't seem that happy right now . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝. .You good .❞

After his show of destruction, Solarion slowly turned to look back at Kris as he landed on the ground. "Impressive right?" However upon seeing the other boys reaction, his pride melted away until it looked like someone kicked his puppy. "Ohh..."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 5d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠKris watches closely, ooh they wish they had their sword right now. They slowly back up even more as he hovers in the air, before being knocked off their feet. OW . It doesn't take long for Kris to get back onto their feet, muttering something about Sol being a dumbass under their breath .

"When great amounts of power and skills are on display its IMPOSSIBLE to be a dumbass! Now watch my friend as i become the coolest person you know!" His evil cackle continued and magic seemed to arc off of him as Sol hovered in the air before releasing a blast of magic which shot off and detonated.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝I mean-- I guess? Just don't be a dumbass with it .❞ KRIS, LANGUAGE. They will surely worry about this. Backing up slightly . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Buddy .❞ IT REALLY DOESN'T .

“You said you wanted to see something cool right?” The grin on his face was only a tiny bit crazy… probably nothing to worry about. “So I intend to give you one hell of a fireworks show!” The evil laugh that came after the sentence probably wouldn’t help but Kris at ease…

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 5d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThat got a genuine laugh out of them. They really do like messing with him a lot . ❝Yeah-- excuse me? What are exactly are you planning ?❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠOoh, they don't really like the sound of that .

Just for a second he perked up again... at least until he learned how low the bar was, then he was crushed even more. "Fine... I'll just have to show you the coolest, most awesome magic i can come up with then! Do you know anywhere away from people that that be safely annihilated?" Wait what?

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 6d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Ohh, do you now. So, go ahead, and show me. I really wanna see the cool stuff .❞ They giggle to themselves. Kris kind of likes doing that to him, it's funny to them. Why? Not sure . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝You? I mean-- you're cooler than him. Slightly. The bar isn't that high .❞ OKAY KRIS .

Something in Solarions demeanour, probably his ego, shattered a bit at Kris' words. "H-hey! I'm not lazy! I know cool magic like fire balls and necromancy!" Before he could continue though Kris' description of friend made the elfs ego shatter even more. "But... but i'm cool, right?"

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 6d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Okay, so you do fully use magic. Okay. I'm assuming for everything because you're really lazy, huh .❞ OKAY KRIS . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝I-- well. . they like to call themselves cool. Despite not really being cool .❞ Ooh boy .

"That sounds rather unpleasant now you mention it... of course I'd make it a challenge for you, and if you succeeded i'm 100% zapping you with magic." He tilted his head in curiosity. "Well i hope this friend of yours sounds interesting. They must be cool if they're like me!" ...yeah ...sure.

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 7d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠAnd they respond by-- putting their tongue away. For once, an actual mature choice by Kris ! ❝I'll-- like. . knee you in the gut. How does that sound, buddy ?❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThat doesn't sound very nice, Kris . ❝Oh. Nobody important, just an old friend, that's all .❞

Naturally he stuck his tongue out even more, it was the only reaction that really made any sense in retaliation. "Or what huh?" Of course that reaction got him curious. "Really? I've found myself to be a pretty... 'unique' person. Who do i remind you of?"

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 7d ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠKris responds in a mature way, by sticking our their tongue as well . ❝You better shut up .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThey grumble quietly, before sighing as he speaks again . ❝Gosh-- you sound so familiar right now .❞

Being the mature adult that he was, Solarion stuck his tongue out at Kris. "Sounds to me like the pots calling the kettle black." The smug overconfidence didn't fad, in fact he was almost preening like a peacock. "Too bad. You asked, so you get to find out that yes, i'm basically the best!"

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThey continue to examine it, before proceeding to gently pat his hand. Kris . ❝Ah, okay-- so you're just shit at lying then. Good to know .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ OKAY KRIS . ❝Okay, dork. I wasn't asking for all of that now .❞

Solarion blinked a few times in confusion and looked down at his hand as Kris grabbed it, not expecting him to take it or for him to be more gentle. “I can lie better when I want to. It’s spontaneously lying I suck at.” He chuckled looked very smug. “Yup! I’m super cool and powerful!”

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠAnother scoff. Before gently taking his hand to look at it . ❝You might be a worse liar than me . . .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThey do chuckle softly. Before continuing to examine his hand . ❝Yeah, makes sense. Wait-- you can do that ??❞

He chuckled slightly and rubbed the back of his neck. "Admittedly not one of my best lies..." Sol then shrugged. "I dunno. I tend to come across a lotta assholes most days, so i'll force it on one of them. And if that fails i can just open a portal to the abyss and give it to a demon."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠKris glares at him for a moment, before rolling their eyes. If that was even noticeable . ❝That was a horrible lie. Glad you finally admit it, though. Wait-- who would you give it to ?❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠNow, Kris seems very curious about this. They really want to know how it works .

The elf jumped slightly in surprise and chuckled nervously. "W-what? Why would i even... I'd never... what even is magic...?" Even for him that was a terrible lie, and he knew it as Sol immediately deflated. "Ok... yeah i did... And its fine, i'll just transfer it to someone evil later."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Did you like-- reverse the pain I had. . onto yourself? If so, that's really stupid .❞ Kris, you cannot just say that casually. Please . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Well, now I want you to feel better .❞ Hm, so maybe Kris WAS right .

“Nope, nope. Totally fine see- AHH! Fuck!” He tried to give Kris a thumbs up but the movement seemed to cause him a great deal of pain. “I’m glad you’re feeling better though!” Strangely he proceeded to use his other hand to give a thumbs up without issue.

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝You are wincing right now. Doesn't seem too fine to me .❞ They shrug, before snickering quietly . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Eh, but what do I know? Well-- I do feel better. So, thanks for that .❞

"N-no i'm fine!" And yet for a fine person he seemed to be wincing a lot every time he moved his arm. "How are you feeling anyway? I could of handled it all if you just let me finish but i hope it helped at least a bit."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠWell, a very brief reaction. Might not happen again. Who knows . ❝You seemed to be struggling. I wasn't gonna just-- let that keep happening .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThey feel so much better now. But, it's going to take them a little bit to thank him . ❝So ?❞

The elf's smile perked up as Kris laughed. He was glad to get the reaction out of him. "Whoa! Hey. What are you doing?" As Kris pulled away, the magic between then broke away like threads of silk, though it seemed like whatever pain Kris had lost stayed gone. "I wasn't done."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠWell, that got a slight laugh out of them . ❝Well, I'm talking right now .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠKris notices this, and slowly pulls their hand away, even though Sol probably wasn't done yet. But they were worried .

Sol snorted slightly at Kris reply and smirked slightly. "Like you're one to talk." Slowly though the pain would continue to recede, although the longer the magic went on for, the more Sol's hand and arm would begin to tremble. Maybe he was getting tired? But then why was he gritting his teeth.

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThey obviously notice this. But they won't comment on it physically . ❝Alright. Weird reaction, but alright .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠAgain, they can tell. They won't call him out on that. . yet . Well, it certainly makes them feel a lot better .

A slightly nervous chuckle escaped the elf and his eyes darted around a bit. "What it called? Oh... um... its not called anything really, don't worry about it..." Oh dear... he was just as bad at lying as Kris... Although Kris would feel the pain begin to slowly, slowly lessen.

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠAnother scoff, but they soon stop messing around once their hand is grabbed. Awaiting for any changes to occur . ❝Huh. This is-- interesting. Do you have a name for this .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThey seem more intrigued by the magic itself, than the affects it should be having .

He chuckled slightly. “I’m pretty sure most causes of severe nerve damage tend to be. But fine, I won’t pry, I’ll just do my best to fix it.” He gently lifted up Kris’ hand and began to focus as light violet magic began to curl out from his hand and around Kris’. “Let me know If you feel change.”

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Well the reason why is-- complicated. Alright? I just can't really tell you .❞ They let out a groan . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Oh, don't worry, I've dealt with magic for a while now. I won't freak out .❞

"You know typically people need to know what caused an injury in order to heal it properly." He sighed and shrugged. "Guess i won't get that info from ya though so I’ll go into this blind... and just to check before i do anything, are you cool with magic? It would be annoying if you freak out."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝Okay, okay. But I'm still not gonna tell you what caused this. You're not getting that. But, I guess you can try to help me .❞ Kris, buddy. You probably SHOULD tell him ! ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝It would be nice if you did .❞ KRIS !

"Because i like to help people... plus i'm working on being a 'better person' and that means helping people, like you maybe." How unfortunate for Kris that Solarion has no idea when to quit. "Besides, now i know now painful it is i can't just leave you be. That'd be kind of a jerk move."

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠKris groans, rolling their eyes. As if that was even noticeable . ❝I know I do. But why do you care so much? We just met .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠKris. Well, it'll take some Kris to listen. . and besides, they don't need to give a reason as to why their hand aches . It's complicated .

He deadpanned again. "You REALLY need to work on your lying skills." He sighed. This is why he wasn't altruistic more, because he always ended up with the hard ones. "Because maybe i can help. Now do you wanna tell the truth, because THAT doesn't 'just happen'. "

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝It's not that bad. I can live through it .❞ Kris, it IS that bad. You can't just simply walk this kind of thing off. They sigh quietly . ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❝I didn't do this to myself. It just-- happened. Yeah. Why do you wanna know so badly .❞

"Whoa ok! I didn't think it'd be that bad!" He quickly lets go of Kris' hand, now looking far more concerned than before. "How'd you hurt your nerves though. That kinda damage is like super serious, how'd you do that to yourself?"

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠAnother grumble from Kris, before they yelp once their hand is grabbed again. Pain. So much of it . ❝Hey .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠWell, they do like how gentle he was with grabbing their hand, it still hurts . ❝I--. . uhh. . think the nerves are damaged. Any slight touch just. . really hurts my hand .❞

Sol just smiled brightly in response to Kris, although there was a hint of smugness to him as he caught him out. "Great!" He grasped Kris' hand again, this time he was much gentler. "Now do you wanna tell the truth or are you going to continue to pretend like you're not hurt. I just want to help"

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · last wk.

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ It's almost as if Kris is such a horrible liar or something. Because they can be. At times . ❝Yep. Absolutely spot on. Nothing hurts at all-- you want me to what ?❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠWhat almost sounds like a sigh escapes them. As they slowly extend their hand out . ❝Wouldn't mind . .❞

Sol deadpanned right at him. For some strange reason he didn’t seem to believe Kris… “Oh. Right. Ok then. Never hurt at all, so there’s no pain what so ever!” He held out his hand again. “You wouldn’t mind shaking my hand again, right? Or would you like to change your answer?”

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 2w ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThey let out a sigh, glancing away from him entirely . ❝It's fine, man. I don't need a doctor to look at my hand, if nothing's wrong. So therefore, I never hurt it .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠKris, you are a horrible liar right now. Please work on that some more before you lie about something serious again .

His head tilted slightly and he looked between Kris' face and his hand. "That doesn't sounds good, plus it seems to be bothering you. Have you had a doctor look at it... how'd you hurt it anyway?" Unfortunately Sol always tended to be rather intrusive with his questioning without thinking.

* 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝘾𝘼𝙂𝙀 .ᐟ@darkf0untainsealer.bsky.social · 2w ago

ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠA quiet hiss, before they shake their head. No . ❝No--no. Just. . hand has been hurting for-- a while. You didn't do anything wrong .❞ ᅠㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠThey let their aching hand rest at their side. They don't even want to look at it right now .
