Okay... [ There's a slightly high-pitched yelp on the other end as she applies the ethanol like he said to. Then she winces, although he can't see that part. Owwwww.
She takes a shaky breath. After a little bit: ] Okay. I did it. [ She brightens! ] Hey, I really did it.
[ She wasn't sure if she had the balls.
She also doesn't like thinking about him becoming crab lunch, and while she knows he has a point, she doesn't want to admit it. Still!! She doesn't like thinking about anybody just wandering alone by themselves, with nobody even knowing whee they went or when to expect them back or...
She's surprised when he agrees. She'd expected more of an argument, maybe. ]
Thanks, Levi. That's all I want. I know it, like, messes with your whole "lone wolf" aesthetic, but it's just... I don't think it's good for anybody to be completely alone. Like, that's how people go crazy.
Besides, what if I wanted to go with you? Sometimes it gets boring just sitting around here all day, and, like, you know stuff. Maybe you could teach me.
[ She feels weird saying it. She would not have ever wanted to learn to hunt or fish or trap back home... but those weren't essential skills to have back home. Not like they are here. ]
