[Once Ruby gets a hold of the new Fluid (Which isn't called a Fluid but she's going to call it that until she gets corrected) she immediately starts it up to see what's going on. Surely she has some important and vital wisdom to pass onto the other people of Trench, right?

RIGHT????]

first



[Or she could do that.]

NO FAIR

HOW COME EVERYONE ELSE GETS TO HAVE FUN AND I DON'T!?

That's just mean. D: D: D:

[entreats]

Ruby, do I have to remind you that you are ALREADY firing fire from random limbs at any given moment?

Adding more fire to that just means you'll burn down the house!

[onekindsoul]

No... I've got that on lockdown honestly. I mean I don't have a solution for it but I know it's happening a lot.

...It also means I could totally burn monsters to a crisp though. Unlimited fire!

[entreats]

[ Talk about putting a completely positive spin on it. It's such a Ruby-like thing, Ange thinks. ]

That's why we have to find some sort of way for you to control it. Because taking care of monsters that way is totally cool and useful, but accidentally setting me on fire too is going to be a problem.

[onekindsoul]

[That is a good point and something she is worried about but it's not like she could show that.]

You don't have to worry about that. I wouldn't set you on fire ever. Accident or not. You're just going to have to trust me on that!

[entreats]

[ There's a slight pause before her reply appears. ]

Of course I trust you.

[ Ange's expression - as she looks at the words - is a little complicated. A little guilty. She doesn't ever want Ruby to feel like Ange doesn't trust her, because she does. Of course she always does, no matter how much she might whine complain about certain things Ruby does.

But this power.. it's so unpredictable. If Ruby really has such control over it, surely she wouldn't be setting herself accidentally on fire, right?

Would saying that out loud though betray her trust in Ruby? This is so hard. ]

I'm sorry if I made it seem like I don't. I'm just worried.

[onekindsoul]

Hey. Relax.
Of course I know you trust me.
I'm just making light of what I don't have a whole lot of control of at the moment.
Which is kind of what we're both getting at here.

I get that you're worried.
But I'll make sure that you're safe and sound.
Promise.

[entreats]

I think you mean make sure that we're safe and sound.

[ Ange isn't just worried about herself, really. If she's worried about her own safety, that's only insofar that she doesn't want to lose this new life when she's only just gained it - especially when they have no idea if Deerington rules in regards to death apply in this place too. ]

But I know you can do that.

[onekindsoul]

[Ruby blinks at that. She was still getting used to the fact that her life was something that she shouldn't be ready to give at a moments notice. It wasn't something that she normally thought too much about but it was built into her and hard to shake.]

Yeah. That's what I meant. See- I need you remember the little details like that.

But you're right. Yeah. We'll be safe and sound.

And I know you know. But sometimes it makes me feel better to say it out loud. You know?
