Taking in Ace's answer to his worry he let out a sigh and smiled. Probably the one person that could turn every moment of his worrying into something that, in the end, feel like a waste of time. She was so peppy and cheerful all the damn time and it made him feel a little better about himself. Then again, surviving through what they just did at the end of the day was a jarring experience either way and at this point it was probably for the best that he get whatever motivation he could to continue his way through this little journey.

He followed the rest of the group and eventually they all caught back up with the rest of their troupe. Inadi would have greeted them much more energetically but he was beginning to feel the adverse affects of his arm again. It was starting to spasm every once and a whole and his skin was starting to sting when there was a gust of wind or whenever his sleeve touched a certain part of his arm. Lucky for him he picked a rather baggy set of clothing, otherwise he would have been screaming in pain at this point. 

Inadi sent a wave over to Riley and then a nod towards Lesley. The others received other acknowledgments but those two got somewhat special treatment. Lesley he had known for a long time, just as long as Riley, and he felt that it was in his best interest to keep the man aware that he remembered him. Something about him just screamed diva in Inadi's mind, and the last thing he wanted to deal with was drama from somebody as....interesting as Lesley. And Riley shared a similar passion of his in writing. That in itself made him feel somewhat of a connection to the girl and earned her a top spot on his list of “people to pay attention to in Nowhere”.

Once the cave had been cleared and checked out by the scouts, the glasses wearing boy immediately dropped to his knees in a spot a bit away from the rest of the group. He needed to check his arm and do it without drawing much attention. Looking around him to make sure no one was paying him any attention, he began rolling up his sleeve. All he heard was the exchanging of stories and experiences that both groups shared. He would have gladly given the group his part of the story of the mushroom man if he could. However, the sharp pain traveling up his arm was not going to allow him to do so.

Finally rolling up the sleeve all the way, Inadi swallowed a very nervous gulp of spit. The skin was rosy and glistened now. Parts of skin seemed to be so pink they reminded him of a pig's flesh. It was clear his arm was not going to do well now at this point. He shook his head at his own disapproval as he pulled out the wrapping he had held onto since back at the cave and slowly tried to wrap up his own wound. He squeezed down on his arm so that the bandage would stay on, but his grunts at this point could not be kept quiet as he did so. This was a new kind of pain he had never experienced, and one he hoped he never had to, but here he was experiencing it first hand.

Halfway through finishing there was the roar in the cave. Inadi went wide-eyed and looked on as some of the group went out to find the source of the sound. Rolling his eyes at them, he bit through the wrapping and left it halfway finished for the moment. He had gotten to his elbow at this point and he was content with that for the moment. Rolling his sleeve back down he joined Riley, Harper and Leon as they all looked on to the......dragon?

This was the beast? This was the creature that Inadi had been fretting over this entire time? Dropping his spear to his side and falling onto his backside, Inadi couldn't help but start laughing. All this time of worrying and making a general worry wart of himself and all they had to do was catch a dragon that looked like some kind of carnival toy! He couldn't help himself as he began letting his chuckle die out and he wiped his eyes to get the tears he had in them out. “Quite a wonderful dragon there I say! I can't imagine what the babies look like? Giant collections of cotton candy?” He asked with a smart-alecky tone in his voice. He stayed sitting, watching Leon's reaction and giving him a nod. This was truly either one of the funniest or most disappointing moments in their journey for him. Inadi could only wonder where it actually fell on his list.
