Fujiwara opened his mouth to comment on the abruptness of her request, but instead decided to keep quiet and massage his forehead as the girl ran off to go recruit someone else to go do a pseudo-fetch quest for her. Like... That kind of reaction wasn't the kind of thing he'd ordinarily expect if they were knocked down out of nowhere like that. Maybe some lecturing, some shouting, some yelling... But not a sudden commission like that, no.

"Geez... What the heck was that all about?" he muttered to himself as he walked over to his weapon and pulled it out of the ground. Examining it for any damage (luckily, there wasn't anything that threatened the weapon's integrity or anything), Fujiwara quietly sheathed his blade as he glanced over at the two girls about to head over to the swamps... Or, well, what they supposed to be swamps.

"Well... Guess I've got nothing to lose. 'cept, y'know, my life and all that. But sure." he said, shrugging as he followed behind the pair. "Though I do have to ask... You guys think there's any place to rest once night hits? Guard duty's a pain in the ass, especially in hostile PvE environments..."

[h1]Ayame[/h1]
Ayame bowed towards Rey in standard introductory fashion before turning towards Lao'Jax as he began to go into details about his plan. Though she could understand his schedule for the most part, Ayame made a mental note of herself to start learning some of the terminology that wasn't commonplace in everyday language. What she did catch, she only remembered from her brief conversations with Hideki as he went on and on about what he played whenever they chatted online. Well, it wasn't as if she wasn't going to learn this eventually.

"I... Think that's a good idea..." Ayame trailed off, pulling up her map and beginning to calculate some things in her head. "It... Shouldn't take much more than a few hours to do all of that, I believe, but given the relative distance between locations, the mobility of a group of three, and the detours we'll likely take along the way..."

Closing her map, Ayame sighed and looked back at her two party members. "Geniku seems to be the most reasonable place to stop for the night. Not entirely sure if we can reach Tolbana before things become too dark tonight."
