[Bon had just finished bandaging his arm, and he looks up sharply when Rin says that.]

If they're that dangerous, then you shouldn't be going alone.

[Even though this Rin is different, Bon is assuming that she is a capable fighter. Which makes the 'almost killed' comment that much more meaningful: Rin is the strongest fighter by far out of their little group. While he isn't the best at strategy, he's sill part demon and far more resilient than any human could hope to be. It must be serious, if Rin was almost killed.

Once he's recovered, Bon fully intends on going out to the Skyway to find his friends. He and Rin will just have to stick together.]

[hellpyre]

[Oop. So glad she's not actually looking at him right now.]

Yeah well... the first time I didn't really have a choice. It was when I landed.

[Other times she got just a little too far away from the group, or turned around somewhere on the skyway and wound up alone.

She's still working on that 'stick together' thing.]

[kyotoprincess]

And what about the other times?

[See, Bon is perceptive. Rin wouldn't have said 'first time' if there hadn't been more times.

Depending on her answer, he may give her a hard time.]

[hellpyre]

[Crap.]

... what other times?

[Rin you are a terrible liar. Just. Terrible.

Hell her tail is even twitching erratically. That's a dead give away.]

[kyotoprincess]

Don't give me that shit. Boy or girl, you're still Rin.

[Meaning he knows. You get into trouble, Rin.]

[hellpyre]

[Crap crap shit crap.

Rin lets out a groan and tosses her head back, staring at the strange sky above them for a minute before dropping it back down.]

I got... separated from the group. Twice.

[kyotoprincess]

What are you, stupid?!

[Sorry, he just can't believe how stupid Rin was. The Skyway is terrifying, and getting separated from a group sounds like a REALLY bad idea. No wonder Rin almost got killed.

The rest of what he says isn't nearly as sharp as the beginning, though. It's more frustration speaking.]

Do you need a leash or something?

[hellpyre]

What?! No! I don't need a damn leash! It's easy to get lost out there, okay?!

[Wow Rin defensive much?

No she really is that dumb, Bon. You've got every right to be concerned.]

[kyotoprincess]

Well you better not 'get lost' anymore, because it'll be a pain to go and chase you down.

[He wouldn't leave her out there by herself if she got lost, but he would yell at her for getting lost once he found her. Clearly they are good friends.]

[hellpyre]

[Best friends.]

Fine but the same goes for you, got it?!

[Yup. They're yelling again. Some of the other residents have just turned to snickering quietly amongst themselves. Obviously they're not going to tear each other apart so it's merely friendly rivalry worth chattering about.

They have to get their entertainment somehow.]

[kyotoprincess]

[There's no tv in the Bastion so this is like a daytime soap opera or something. All My Exorcists.

But Bon will smirk at that, because he is confident in his abilities.]

I don't get lost.

[hellpyre]

... yeah. Sure. Tell that to me when you take two left turns on the wrong skyway.

[DONE WITH YOUR BULLSHIT BON]

[kyotoprincess]

I'm smart enough to stay with the group at least. And I don't need a leash to do so.

[NO IT IS ON NOW]

[hellpyre]

I don't need a fuckin' leash you damned gorilla!

[ORLY]

[kyotoprincess]

Then don't get lost anymore!

[He's not thinking of the possibility of an entire group getting lost at once.]

[hellpyre]

[Bon pls.]

I WON'T.

[kyotoprincess]

GOOD!

[This is the most mature argument ever.]

[hellpyre]

GREAT

[Most mature teenagers]

[kyotoprincess]

PERFECT!

[Seriously they got all the maturity here. Even Marie is not as mature as them.]

[hellpyre]

WONDERFUL!

[So very mature. The world quakes at their maturity.]

[kyotoprincess]

[He doesn't want to let Rin have the last word. That's why he continued it as long as he did.

But before he can speak again, his stomach grumbles. It's been hours since he last ate and he is actually pretty hungry, even if he didn't realize it before.]

[hellpyre]

[They probably could have kept that up forever, but the sound coming from Bon makes Rin stop, snort after a second and start laughing, just barely getting enough time to cover her face with a hand.]

[kyotoprincess]

[And Bon looks embarrassed as all hell. It's made worse by the fact that Rin is a girl now, though Bon can't really articulate why that makes it worse.]

Stop laughing! It's normal for a guy to be hungry!

[hellpyre]

I-I'm sorry! Really! That just came outta nowhere--!

[Nope sorry Bon still laughing]

[kyotoprincess]

[GLARE GLARE and since he's done bandaging his arms he'll just toss down the rest of the medical supplies as he stands up.]

You got a lot of nerve, you know that?!

[He'll stomp off and find food for himself if Rin is going to keep laughing like that, he cannot deal with it today.]
