Hoooh . . .

Do you wanna see it?

[soundsinsilence]

I think . . . I'd like to.

I've even been practicing, so hopefully going outside . . . I wouldn't be as much of a burden as I have been.

[followthewind]

. . . you ain't a burden.

[soundsinsilence]

But I'm . . . really not that good, when things are trying to eat me. And I get distracted easily . . . ahh . . .

There are definitely better people to have, when you're out exploring.

[followthewind]

. . .

I've escorted much worse'n that.

[soundsinsilence]

Escorting, though . . . that's a job, isn't it? Not something for a partner.

[followthewind]

Well yeah, but I'm just sayin'.

[soundsinsilence]

I know. It's just . . .

I've had too many people get hurt while I've been fine. While they're keeping me safe. I really . . .

I don't want that any more.

[followthewind]

. . .

But what if they wanna keep you safe an' don't care if they get hurt.

[soundsinsilence]

[Looks at him a long, long moment.

. . . more than the ghost of Spirea, it's the ghost of her first day here that haunts her features.]

I care.

[followthewind]

. . .

[soundsinsilence]

I care.

. . . you do too, or you wouldn't think that getting hurt was better than having to watch while someone else was.

[followthewind]

. . . I'd rather get hurt than you gettin' hurt.

[soundsinsilence]

Don't you think I feel that way too?

[followthewind]

I'm gettin' that, yeah.

[soundsinsilence]

. . . thank you.

[followthewind]

. . . for what?

[soundsinsilence]

Getting it.

[followthewind]

. . . ah.
