Sometimes.

[ He said simply, his voice a little world weary at that. ] He just kind of...finds it. It's easier when we're watching each other's backs, but you can't stop the universe from trying to take all of us down.

[ Wow, deep shit sounds weird coming out of a kid's mouth. ]

But we do what we can.

[whathawksdo]

[ Well, there's a familiar story. ]

You know, I used to know someone just like that... [ She just won't say who. ] Sounds like he's a pretty lucky guy to have you around, though.

[kanadian]

[ A snort, from up on her shoulder. It's supremely inelegant. ]

I dunno about that one. I'm the lucky one.

[ In a rare moment of adult honesty -- he's not gonna have many of those for a while. ] Besides, someone needs to watch his back.

[whathawksdo]

And I'm going to tell him you said that if we find him.

[ Said in a joking sing-song way. Well, maybe joking. She might do it. ]

[kanadian]

Oh --

[ He scrunched up, in between an adult need to ask her not to embarrass him, and childish pride. ]

So? Maybe he'll like it?

[ He insisted, although part of him was screaming in embarrassment. ]

[whathawksdo]

Hmmm. Probably.

[ Sadly, any further jokes she might have on this subject aren't exactly "child-friendly", so she leaves it there. ]

See him anywhere yet? Or possibly the plume of destruction you're so sure he'll be leaving in his wake by now?

[kanadian]

No, uh --

[ He looked around, still squinting over the rest of it. ]

I haven't seen anything yet. I don't know where he'll be, but I last saw him... this way. [ He pointed. ]

[whathawksdo]

Then that's the way we'll go.

[ Onward! To... adventure? Maybe adventure. Or maybe tons of other confused children, considering the situation, but that's almost like adventure! ]

[kanadian]

Ok, maybe he'll be --

[ He huffed softly, and started scanning wildly. ]

[whathawksdo]

Calm down there, kiddo. I'm sure there's nothing actually dangerous out here to get him.

[ There's a pause after that, rethinking whether or not she's just jinxed everyone. Hmm. ]

Though if there is, I can blast it. Easy enough.

[kanadian]

Yeah, probably a good idea. Normally I can use my biotics, but I don't know if my --

[ He winced. ] If I'm gonna be able to do that.

AND SUDDENLY HE WAS AN OLD DUDE AGAIN this kills the mage shoulder

[whathawksdo]

I have no idea what those are, but I'm sure magic can cover whatever they would do. So no problem, right?

GIANT SPACE SOLDIER ON YOUR ShOULDER HAWKE

[kanadian]

Yeah, no problem.

[ He doesn't know if he should be happy, or sad, if his biotics aren't working. It's so much a part of him, that...

Well, he sighed, and looked around, before he turned his head, looking around wildly. ]

I think -- I think I heard my name --

[ There's a pause. ] Can you let me down?

YOUR BUTT IS TOO BIG YOU BUTTHEAD ASTRONAUT

[whathawksdo]

Did you now? [ Not that she's honestly questioning it. He'll find himself set back down on the ground soon enough regardless. ] Must be him, unless a lot of other people are around who'd be yelling that.

RUDE A F

[kanadian]

Yeah, I --

[ He looked around, squinting, before -- yep, there was someone calling his name, but it was a lot younger than the Commander. ]

I'd better go see if that's him, thank you Hawke!
