“I thought that one’s still alive. Geez, there’s too many to count.”
+10 HP.
The young girl, her body hidden by the black cloth that is draped around her, is shuddering.
“So scary when I can’t fight back… I’m not supposed to…”
“Christ, how dull is this bunch? We’re like, totally missing the story here… and the story is, like, sometimes the best part of a game!”
Ruri walks up closer to Jack.
“You’re sayin’ you can’t fight back, and you’re an NPC, right? So, this got something to do with all the tech in the game? Are you, like… some sorta sentient android type?”
Ruri grins, seemingly proud of herself for her deductions.
“No… Mama said that if I attacked the mobs… people would get angry at me for taking away their EXP…”
She shudders.
“Please don’t get angry…”
“I’m still confused on somethin’…”
Ruri puts her hand to her chin, striking a thinking pose.
“Why do you need our help getting home, when you’re stronger than everyone else in this lot?”
Spade becomes surprised by the sudden change in Jack’s profile “Woah, okay, that’s just freaky!”
“Nah, nah! You’re, like, totally cool! Maybe not gun-wielding pirate chick cool… but really high up there! I’m totally gonna max out friendship with you!”
Ruri smiles.
