[ it's super dead. that, or super clean. either/or. it's a good thing too; he's not sure if he could stand to take another hit? having low HP is one thing, but not having a high pain tolerance is what's really affecting him right now.
doesn't help that he's not used to swinging a weapon. even if the game basically does it for him, it still feels real. it's all mental. ]
[ and that alone makes him feel like he can't disappoint. no way he'll look like a complete utter fool in front of tighnari, unless it's he himself who does it!
with the armor downed, it feels like they're close to the end. the room in front of them is more or less... empty? or is it?? there's just enough shadows to keep him from completely seeing inside. ]
Shall we?
[ he won't remove tighnari's hand as they move in together. ]
[ tighnari rolls his eyes, but together they walk into the dark room, though he takes his hand back in order to have both on his.. weapon (?). once his eyes adjust, he finds that the room is a dead end, where they find only a statue, and a treasure chest. ]
Do you want to do the honors?
[ he figures cyno is a nerd and wants to open it.. too bad there's only a weird goblin inside, probably. ]
[ the chest is cautiously opened and BAM, there's... nothing? at least not at first. as he turns around, that's when he notices the goblin charging at them from behind--- unarmed. but cyno still readies up just in case.
[ that wouldn't happen, this is a normal very not weird game, right?? tighnari clearly doesn't worry about offending it, however, nor does he care if it's Rare. he sighs, his expression flat. ]
But fine, we can keep it around if you want. What strange things have you been up to, Cyno?
Nothing at all. [ cyno hums as the goblin laughs and shakes its head. ] Honestly, I wanted to make my first area exploration special by doing it with you and you only.
[ and then the goblin fake-gags. it hates this. ew. ]

You're a natural at this.

Please. I hit myself in the face thirty seconds ago.
[ but he approaches the dead armor and cyno after a moment, laying one hand on cyno's shoulder. ]
You all right?

it's request is equally strange, and he shrugs. ]
I guess... we can't just leave you behind. Right?
[ maybe they should tbh ]
no subject
Why can't we? I don't see why we need to take it with us.
[ it's obnoxious!! ]
no subject
I don't think we have a choice if it keeps following us...
[ cyno winces, trying to keep his voice low. he doesn't want to offend it? what if it's actually Rare??? ]
... also what do you think it's talking about? Strange things? We just started playing...

You're such a cornball..
[ and so sweet. tighnari is touched, even if the goblin is gagging - that goblin can kiss his ass!! ]
Wanna get out of here, then?
no subject
Yeah. Let's go.
[ with the goblin tagging along, of course. which isn't great but it's. yeah. ]
