Well I tried to poison Claude first, but he could tell there was poison in the tea as soon as he sipped it.

[overlimit]

You tried to poison him first!?

... You went with the poison expert?

[branches]

I-I didn't know he was a poison expert! I just picked him because I figured he could handle it!!

[overlimit]

... Right, well...

If you need someone to stick by and make sure you don't die, I could... [...and hastily:] Or like, Kon, or somebody. I think you're friends?

[fuck if rita knows who's friends with who]

[branches]

[Makes a face.]

What? No. We just came from the same place. I guess we're both friends with Toki, but.
[Hmph. Not friends.]

[overlimit]

Toki? Who's that?

[branches]

He's an idiot who gets overly friendly with everyone who just seemed to decide we were friends and... then I guess I got used to him being around. Plus... I do owe him for saving me.

[Hmph.]

[overlimit]

I guess I can picture the type.

How'd he save you?

[branches]

... He gave me a new body, basically.

[overlimit]

... How? I mean, what was wrong with the old one?

[branches]

My tree got destroyed, and I... I tore up the ward my brother made to anchor me, but he'd lost his powers and couldn't make a new one.

[WOW HE SOUNDS DUMB WHEN HE SAYS IT LIKE THAT.]

[overlimit]

That... sounds pretty serious!?

[ALSO DUMB?]

So what'd this Toki guy manage to do?

[branches]

He's got like... special powers where he can rewrite the reality of the world. So he just, he had this jellyfish that was a manifestation of his soul or something? I wasn't there for that. But he rewrote it to be a new body for me. The only downside is now I can sort of tell what he's thinking.

[overlimit]

Your body's a jellyfish now?

[branches]

Do I look like a jellyfish to you??

[overlimit]

... I mean, you don't look that much like a tree, either?

[branches]

My tree is separate! The jellyfish got turned into a proper body!
