*Pulls away my scarf and tugs down on my collar to expose bruised lilac flesh and deep, festering gashes surrounded by necrotized flesh*
I don't expect myself to be useful when it comes to protecting your new home.

*Grimaces*
Eesh. TMI bro, that could definitely be looking better.

I'm sure you can tell it's been an unpleasant day.

@Techspert

Have you, like, had that looked at? At all?

*Shakes my head*
Too dangerous. I have some time before they have a chance to kill me.

@Techspert

How’s a wound too dangerous to heal? Is it contagious?

@Melodious

No, but it's fresh. I need to make absolutely sure that I'm not being followed.

@Techspert

I’m not going to judge you or anything, but I feel like there are infinitely many places you could have gone less predictable than here.

*Nods*
Predictable was... the goal. There's a long story, but my showing up is a deterrent.

@Techspert

I hope your plan works out. Busting heads wasn’t something I was hoping to have to do today.

@Melodious

You'd have backup. But I do have a hunch that the worst has already past us by.

@Techspert

Like I said, I hope so. But if your plans had been working out from the start, I don’t imagine we’d be meeting like this.

@Melodious

I can't argue. It could have also gone much worse.

@Techspert

We don’t need to find a cubbyhole under the floorboards to hide you in, do we?

@Melodious

I wouldn't. But if the worst comes, I'd expect minimal help from me personally.

@Techspert

Hopefully, whatever enemies you made won’t see fit to just start attacking random people in places you’d go.

@Melodious

We go a long way back. I'm not worried about that threat specifically.

@Techspert

Thank goodness. We’ll keep a pin in the floorboards idea then.

@Melodious

We’ll consider it a last resort. I’m hoping for short-lived peace.

@Techspert

Must be a special kind of enemy. Surely you have some means of self-regeneration for most average wounds? Natural or otherwise.
