"There's bunch of miner around here. They at first thought that the mine they're mining in must be some sort of motherlode or something, but the deeper the dig, the more they find out that they... don't really need to dig. There are already chamber and such... They keep going for days until they somehow ended up around Rustport. One of them apparently stepped on a trap door and... well, the result was disastrous. Somebody lose their leg. They asked me to investigate..."
Well, that's the gist of it. Certainly, having a pyramid around probably isn't that much of a stretch. However, the problem is probably what inside it. If even one Mummymon is inside, then they're pretty much a toast, however...
He looked at his D-Terminal and checked Colin's address. Then scrolled down to see Ryouta's... nope, no go. He looked more and more and sighed, then laid a map on the ground. Then, checking the map given to him by the miner, he sighed out loud.
"...If it's from here to Rustport, this is going to be a massive ruin... This is a dilemma... I don't think anyone in my friendlist that is stronger than adult stage is currently in Digital World. But I can't really bet on waiting. We could end up trapped here for long---"
"Yuuki," suddenly, Hikaru already stood up, albeit wobbly "...Don't do it. We can't go there just because of me..." He then looked at Lan and just smiled cheekily. "...If I'm not in messier condition I'd flirt with a Spadamon with such obviously fabulous mane like you, but now's not the time."
"No," Yuuki answered bluntly. "We really need you to get checked. I'm sorry you four, I know this sounds really selfish, but can you... help me? If there are something stronger than an Adult stage Digimon, we'll pull back. If not, can you please help me get through this?"
He really want to make sure that Hikaru is OK... his Digivice can't be broken. It has gone through worse damage... If he's right then... most likely...

Whatever Yuuki's job was, Asher could only imagine it paid pretty well. Professional Ruins Investigator, perhaps? Surely, it wasn't anything that specific. But it was the title that Asher was going to stick with for the time being. But, it sounded like it could be pretty dangerous. Which actually made it all the more interesting to listen to!
Meicoomon remained quiet, throwing an occasional glance to her human to see if he was going to place an offer for assistance. After all, his Champion form wasn't the only thing in his arsenal. But, the redhead hadn't said a single thing about even being a spirit user! For all the strangers knew, a rookie Meicoomon was his only line of defense! "Purrhaps, mew should wait until you're both feeling better?" After a fall like that, it really didn't seem smart to continue on with their job, regardless of importance! "Aftfur all, a job's not worth your lives." Try to be the voice of common sense!
Especially because Whiskers knew that Asher wouldn't be that kind of voice, himself.
But, now she was distracted by the weird not-quite-flirting-but-definitely-flirting that the Dorumon was placing upon Lantis. Sometimes, the feline forgot how interesting some Digimon were. "Rawrly? You were drowning, and meow you're-" with a shake of her head, the Meicoomon let out a sigh, "whatevfur works for mew." Some Digimon had the weirdest priorities! But, could she really complain, when she had a human as eccentric as Asher?
This distraction was plenty long enough for Asher to make a call for the duo, when Yuuki requested it. Shoving hands in his pockets, fingers grazed across the digivice within. It would be awfully embarrassing to agree to something if he had forgotten it somewhere, wouldn't it? "Whiskers and I are in." The cat paused, to look back to her human. Why was he always signing her up for these things with him? Ah, whatever. It wasn't like she would let him wander off into potentially dangerous territory without the mercenary! "I don't know how much help we'll be, but," clicking his tongue against the roof of his mouth, the redhead debated. "I can probably hold off something above adult. Long enough for you guys to get out, at least."
"Does nobody listen when I say your lives are more impurrtant?" Whiskers huffed. "No being a shield, Ashpurr! Last time, you looked like a car hit you!"
"It wasn't that bad!" Just a few bruises and scrapes! Totally fine! And he hadn't actually been in human for any of it! But, rather than arguing his point, the teen made a small motion toward Lantis and Sophie. "What about you two? Are you up for it?"

Sophie gasped a little with sympathy as she heard that story. That poor digimon, whoever it was. "I take it that you have a reputation for being relied upon to sort out things like that, huh?" she asked, supposing that if Yuuki was called to investigate, he'd be well regarded for this sort of thing.
So there was a dilemma now. Nobody Yuuki knew was present on the digital world with evolutions capable of Adult or better. Wait, was he planning on entering these ruins?
"Uh, hold on, there's something wrong with your partner's evolutions, and he kind of just, well, drowned and got revived?" Sophie pointed out. "I'm pretty sure exploring the ruins now is a bad idea. Unless, well, there's no other way to get back to civilization..." she finished. She didn't really want to wait around here for help, even if they had water and food at hand. On the whole she agreed with Meicoomon.
Lantis meanwhile looked a bit awkward and chuckled. "Well, yeah, not the time it is then" he said, a bit unsure of how to respond to that. He was flattered though. Gosh, there was Whiskers's cat puns and now this. These two were certainly interesting to be around.
When Asher agreed to help out though, Sophie decided that she'd be in too. In the end she didn't really want to be left alone with Lan in the desert again. Besides, she was kind of curious about the contents of these ruins. "Alright, just as long as we watch out for any of those traps" she said, shuddering at the thought of her or Lan or any of them losing their legs.
Asher asked if they were up for it. "Yeah, well, I guess we can run away and keep an eye out for anything that looks out of place" Lantis said. In the Spadamon's opinion, if Yuuki was being relied upon for a job like this, he should do his best in it. And since both he and Hikaru seemed to still be able to, they should at least have a go. "Do you need help walking?" he asked Hikaru, still concerned for the soaked Dorumon.

"It's not indeed," Yuuki answered to Whisker's retort, but at the same time he hoped that Sophie also would take this as an answer for her retort too. "...Job doesn't worth my life, yeah, and I'm honestly not the type that really cares much about stranger's safety. Plus the mining company also take precaution to not send any miners until it's solved. However..." he looked at his partner who still looking really reluctant to go.
"...Hikaru needs immediate medical assistance... we have no idea what sort of thing happened to him, so I'm risking myself to go. There's no guarantee that anybody that come to this oasis would be friendly, too," he reasoned.
Still, Hikaru instead just chuckled when Whiskers sounds exasperated at him. "Would flirt with you also, there, Miss. For a Meicoomon, this is the first time I saw a fur that really so well groomed. I might have felt quite the attraction~?"
"Goddammit, it's hard to be serious with you flirting like that," Yuuki cursed.
"Eh, can't help it. Flirting is like my afternoon snack. I enjoy making people good about themselves~"
"You damn casanova of a Doru."
More chortle from the Doru before he finally got serious. "Well, nah, thanks Lan. I can walk myself... But I'll tell you if I need it, kay?"
Yuuki meanwhile activated his Digivice's map recording system.
"Thank you very much for helping... I might will need some help here and there, but I'll ensure our safety when it comes to traps."
He soon began to move after filling some water bottles--one probably gonna jawdrop with just how many water bottles he got. He even tossed some to Asher and Sophie, four each.
"...Guys, if you got thirsty... drink only two of them. Other two is for emergency." Meanwhile, the youth himself got twelve bottles on his backpack, it's unknown what he's using it for. "...Now with the sun slightly forgiving... let's move before it gets too dark."

Exasperation gave way to... what? Was he flirting with her now? While Asher expected further exasperation from his pet, the feline shuffled her feet a little, while placing a paw on her cheek. If cats could blush, there was no way that Whiskers wouldn't be! "O-oh! Uh! Thank mew!" Purring, the Maine Coon seemed to be entirely ignoring the judgmental stare that her human was giving her.
"Are you being serious right now, Whiskers?" Usually he relied on her for some common sense! Not the other way around!
Instead of properly answering the question, the feline looked at the spirit user. "Do mew think it's all the fancy foods and pets that Ka-"
"No." Don't even mention that name! It might summon her!
It was alarming how many water bottles the teen suddenly found himself holding, growing a little more concerned with each one. "Why so many?" Asher didn't have enough pockets for this! Jeez!
Returning to a somewhat normal state of mind, the Meicoomon reached out with her tendrils to hold two of Asher's water bottles for the time being. With any luck, it would help keep the teen from absent-mindedly drinking or losing them. She certainly didn't trust his ability to think about moderation!
Either way, the two seemed ready to take off as soon as Sophie and Lantis were.

Sophie supposed that it all worked out in the end. "Okay. Well, if it means making sure Hikaru's alright, then we'll do our best to help". Chalk that one down to Sophie's fondness of cute animals. Before she had met Lantis, she quite enjoyed her brother's digimon, both of them being fluffy if not somewhat snarky and dirty-minded. They were still a fun thunder-rabbit and devil-cat though. But neither of them could hold a candle to the lion-knight that was her partner. She could thus empathize to want the fluffy Dorumon to be safe and healthy.
"Alright then" Lantis said. He wasn't sure what he thought about Hikaru's habit of flirting with everybody, but, by now he was used to his digimon family Bellamy and Luke so he paid no mind to it. He had to chuckle a little as Whiskers seemed flattered by the flirtation.
Yuuki then provided them with water bottles. Sophie and Lantis took care to fill theirs in the clear oasis water, then stored them on their person. "Wow, you sure did come prepared" Sophie remarked. She nodded as Yuuki gave advice as to how they should use them. Two were for general thirst, and two were for emergencies. Understandable.
"So then, where abouts are these ruins?" Sophie asked, prepared to head off.

Looks like the Meicoomon can be flirted with afterall? Score~ Hikaru grinned widely, looking proud at himself. However, it's seem that the human on the other hand are less than impressed. Mention about food and grooming made the Dorumon interested though.
"Hmm, from what I heard from you two, it's not your human who groomed you, huh?" Hikaru remarked. "Kinda reminded of a certain cat loving girlfriend of this guy... Takamiya Karin is her name, Karin-chan just REALLY love cats, ah but she also can't keep her hands away from me apparently~ I'm fabulous and the girl know it!"
"I think she's just half exasperated half feeling the absurd urge to groom you, Hikaru, because you does... make people want to pinch your cheek due to adorableness." Yuuki remarked. "But at least you got her to thank to because thanks of her I know many way to groom furry creatures now."
"Heh heh, and who was it that spoiled her so much that she would prefer to lay her head on your lap to sleep?"
"We. don't. talk. about. private. matters. especially. romantic. one." Yuuki hissed.
Sophie luckily asked a question that managed to divert the nature of the talk a bit. "It's quite close to here. Probably with about five minutes walk we'll get there... it's just because it's hidden by the sand that it's hard to see, but..." after climbing a particularly tall pile of sand, Yuuki pointed to the group what looked like an egyptian ruin. The exterior is free from sand, but it looked like the ground is slightly arid. There are plants growing curiously... why?
From how it looked like, the building... cannot be really said as a pyramid? Some exterior are chipped to such extent that it looked like a mishmash of pyramid and temple.

With a shake of the head, Whiskers seemed very adamantly against Asher putting a brush anywhere near her fur. "Defurnitely not. Ashpurr isn't a trained groomer!" Of course he wasn't! Up until fairly recently, Meicoomon flat-out did not like the spirit user! Why would he try to groom her if he ran risk of being scratched?
Of course, the second 'cat loving' came out, Asher knew exactly what was to follow. Karin really couldn't be avoided anywhere he went, could she? "You're joking right?" Her boyfriend was real? And not nearly as aggressive looking as Asher had imagined! There was a subtle eye-twitch at any comment of romance between the two, while the redhead tried to conceal his mild alarm at the situation. He didn't want to think of any of that! How did someone like Yuuki end up with someone like Karin, anyway? "Are you some sort of masochist?" Or, was Asher the only one who had the delight of seeing such a terrible side of the girl and her partner?
"Nya!" Surely, the Meicoomon had an entirely different reaction than her human did to this new piece of information. "She's the one that groomed me! I love Karin!" And Jeanne, of course! They needed to see the duo again sometime soon! Especially since Asher was a little less stupid about the Digital World now!
There was a short pause, while the feline was clearly in a better mood now that the initial confusion had passed. And after getting compliments on her fur, of course! Green eyes turned to the Spadamon, "mew do have a nice mane, though!" Everyone needed compliments on their fur! Or was it hair? Whatever. It was only right! Though, unlike Hikaru, Whiskers' compliment seemed entirely innocent. Did the feline even fully understand the concept of flirting? It was unlikely. She would have complimented the Dorumon's fur, too, as it surely looked lovely after Karin had groomed it, but his recent bath in the oasis made that a little questionable.
Following Yuuki, Asher found himself a little relieved that their walk wasn't going to be an overly long one. He couldn't even offer to fly people places, considering the heat and black feathers didn't necessarily combine well. But, once on top of the pile of sand, the teen was busy trying to wrap his head around the ruins, rather than the heat. As long as this one didn't have aliens in it, everything should be alright! Hopefully!
"Looks cool," the redhead commented, placing a hand in his pocket. So, they were just going to walk through the entrance and then... what? Asher wasn't entirely certain of the details of what they were supposed to do once inside.

Sophie listened in on the conversation enough to hear what was going on. "Ah, so you have a girlfriend?" she asked Yuuki. Partially to make sure she heard correctly, but also partially so she could prevent self-embarrassment by randomly calling him "Noctis-Sama". It would be best if those words were not uttered if there was another girl in Yuuki's life.
Lantis meanwhile was a little curious about Whiskers's reaction to this offer. "Are you sure about that? Humans normally charge unfair amounts of money to touch their fur" he mentioned, although, he supposed that the art of styling human fur was something that demanded more than money alone.
Sophie had to admit that if she didn't have Lantis nearby that she would be strongly compelled to groom Hikaru. But, well, she had a lion-knight to take care of. And as cute as Hikaru was, her own partner came first in situations like this. Especially because Lantis purred when she groomed him the right way. Either way, she remained silent. Although she noted that this Karin individual and her affection for cats seemed to weigh a lot on Yuuki.
"Y-you think so?" Lantis asked, smiling a little nervously toward Whiskers at the compliment to his mane. Yes he put a lot of effort into it, and he realized it was a lot of effort, especially when Sophie presented him with the bill for the anti-flea shampoo that went into it. But thankfully it had paid off in a way that Sophie wasn't too mad and it got results from social experiences.
Fortunately this line of thought was diverted when Yuuki answered the question about where the ruins were. Sure enough, he pointed them out, although he seemed a bit perplexed about the amount of vegetation in them.
Afterward, Sophie and Lantis followed the group to where the next leg of their adventure would await them. And there stood the huge pyramid building.
"Hoo boy, it sounds morbid, but I kinda hope most of the traps that look like they'd be laid down in that place have already been tripped" she remarked.

Sounds like the Meicoomon only trusted her fur to pro groomer... wow. Yuuki just laughed wryly at the comment. Not that he really cares. But if Karin really the one who grooms that fur, then she should've worked as a professional groomer already, right? "Yeah, I got a girl already, a kind one although she seriously need to get away from the kitch---...........Wait a sec, hey, what did you said?"
Masochist!? Who!? Him!? "Oi, no matter how you see it, I'm 100% normal guy with no such fetish! What the hell are you about!?" the warm feeling that he gave right now suddenly turned pointy, directed at Asher. While it's not like Yuuki is a violent guy who would kick like Karin, he sure have similar aura to her when being unpleased or ruffled . "Who the hell is masochist? Just so you know, Karin never once kicked me! If you're getting kicked, then it's probably problem with your attitude! I'm guessing that she got you kicked a lot, right? Well, yanno, if you can't learn to stop getting kicked by her that only means you're the masochistic one!"Hikaru meanwhile laughed hard. "Geez, here I thought that Karin's button is really easy to find, but not only you ruffle the girl, you also ruffled the boyfriend!"Still, whatever the case, the Doru agreed that Asher probably need to watch his mouth more, especially because the other guy really loves Karin. Not that he can complain when the guy is offering for help though. "Tripped? Actually... I'm not sure if it being tripped or not make any difference though... This is Digital World. For all we know, if this ruin still got inhabitant... they'll somehow keep 'refreshed', if you got what I mean. That's why I'm bringing as many items that can reveal tricks, you see..."
Entrance... What they would see in this place is this: While they know there are pathway leading somewhere, it's too dark at the moment to see.. Yuuki turned on his flashlight. Whatever it's made, it's seem to be made waterproof. He tossed two of the same one to Asher and Sophie. "Try to check for anything. I'll check the mural around here. If you need any help, just call out to me."

Whiskers looked to Lantis, with as serious of an expression as a cat could muster, while nodding. "If they're not purrfessionals, they don't know how to get knots out of fur without pulling too hard." As much as the feline loved getting brushed, she certainly didn't like clumps of fur coming out in the process! It just wouldn't look good!
With a nod, the cat was quick to confirm that the Spadamon's mane was quite fabulous! She had to wonder if any of his grooming techniques would help her fur look quite as nice. But, right now probably wasn't a good time to inquire.
Meanwhile, Asher had clearly offended the 'taken' member of the group. Rather than becoming distressed, the redhead stared curiously at the reaction that Yuuki provided, as a small smile began to cross his lips. "So, you're admitting that she kicks people?" At least that had to mean that Asher wasn't the only person that Karin took to violence with. "You're awfully defensive about the topic," he pointed out, "would you rather I risk hurting her, while protecting myself, or take the kick? You can't expect me to be able to just dodge her every time, right?" It just wasn't possible! At least, not for Asher. Or for anyone that didn't want to be Mary-Sue-like.
"At least I know the extra reason for the whi-"
"Do mew rawrly want to see what happens if mew finish that sentence?" The Maine Coon interrupted her human, only to let out a small huff and look at Dorumon. "He's too good at pushing buttons." Maybe her human needed a job in some sort of field that involved a lot of buttons! He would be a pro!
This only warranted a click of the spirit user's tongue, and an overly innocent smile. "I didn't mean any harm from it," he hummed, throwing a glance to Sophie. It was awfully unfair of him to talk about Yuuki's relationship in front of someone else, wasn't it? "Apologies." But, to which person was the redhead apologizing to? The one he offended, or the one that he was staring at? Maybe it was directed at both parties, in their own way.
Now that they were taking time to look at the ruins, Asher tried not to make any comparisons to Yuuki and Karin. Or contrasts? Who knew. Catching the flashlight, the teen clicked it on. "Huh. Thanks," he mumbled, while aimlessly pointing the object toward some of the shadows. Did he really need one of these? The spirit user's eyesight was pretty decent in the dark, if he picked a different form. Shifting the flashlight to his left hand, Asher threw a glance to Sophie and her partner, giving a small shrug. He had no idea what to expect from any of this! "Is there anything specific we're looking for?"
Whiskers had already begun wandering left of the mural, peeking around for anything that might catch her interest.

"Hmm, well, I guess if she likes doing work in the kitchen then that's alright" Sophie remarked at Yuuki's statement about his girlfriend. Although it really wasn't her business.
Sophie then resisted giggling at Yuuki fearsomely defending his non-masochist-ness. 'The lady doth protest too much?' she thought, although she'd best not speak that out loud. It was certainly an interesting individual she had fished out of the water. But with Asher talking, she didn't really feel like it would be wise to say anything further on the subject of whether Yuuki's girlfriend liked to kick or whip or bite.
"Eh, might be best if I stayed out of it" Sophie shrugged. Well as long as Asher meant that apology, it was probably a bit too confronting for someone they were supposedly meant to work with together.
"Oh boy..." Sophie breathed, a little worried. Traps that reset? That definitely didn't sound good. "They wouldn't reset immediately, right? Like we could trip them with a rock or something like that?" she asked, hopefully.
"If not, we'd best just avoid them" Lantis said.
And so they entered the ruins. Lantis drew his sword, running his paw along the flat of it. As he did so, it began to glow with aurora. He could use this for a little while to provide light for them. "Alright" Sophie said to Yuuki.
While Yuuki checked the mural, Sophie and Lantis took a closer look at the ruined pillars, wondering if there was anything on them. She didn't want to go far until Yuuki was finished though, since there didn't seem to be any visible entrances so far. It was then that Lantis wandered over to a kind of cracked pot.
"I wonder if there's anything in here?" he asked the group. Although it could be booby trapped so he didn't dare touch it until given the OK by Yuuki.

"Yeah, she does... at anything that annoyed her more than enough," Yuuki answered. "But isn't that normal? I too punch at something I especially annoyed at." That sounds like a warning... Warning that might come to reality sooner or later. Yuuki stared unamusedly at Asher, then size him up and down.
"...Well, I dunno, she's pretty tough. And I don't think she can be easily beaten by a guy who doesn't look as if he ever punched someone directly on the face without his spirit? Also... I'll just warn you once. My painkiller is still in effect, therefore..." he moved his left arm that made a creaking sound like metal hitting metal, but otherwise it looks like it can be moved rather fluently for being something made of metal. "...That girl, she got no belt at all... her boyfriend got black belt. Which one will you choose?" An unnervingly friendly smile bloomed on the black haired boy's face. Compared to Karin's glare somehow this one felt like it's laced with it'll hurt a lot vibe.
"Yeah, sure, the action still harmful though, so your meaning is lost in your action." Yuuki replied, this time grinning.
Wow, talk about quick dive to wrong end!
Luckily his attention gone to Sophie who asked about the traps.
"Tripping them with rock is possible, but not all ruins got rock, or at times the trap only triggered if there is something heavy enough to trigger them. Think it like this. In each ruins there might be a 'master keeper' or such, that generally works to refresh the trap. Some ruins doesn't have it, but somehow in most ruins that I've gone to at least have one master keeper. Master Keeper however, no matter how strong, is still one. There rarely master keeper that could move the ruins like its own limbs... That's why it generally took time. How long, I have no idea. Thirty? Fourty? That's why, I always marked my map whenever possible. When in ruin, you're faced with two dilemmas,"
Yuuki raised a finger "First, if you don't examine anything, you'll probably missed some clue for the exit and for the treasure room." then he raised another "...But if you're straying off too much, then there are huge chance you will trigger the traps. Admittedly, that's why in the first time in any ruins run, I always try to trigger as many trap as possible so that if I come back again, I won't trigger them. Traps are mostly building-dependent. Changing the trap midway is often considered impossible task. Do you get what I mean?"
Anything that need to be looked out for?
"...Well, murals or plaque with writing on them... Try to not separate," Yuuki muttered.
He took out a book and start scribbling the digicode on the mural and translate it in lightning speed. Way too used to it apparently.
"...The road to glory is only for those who proven their intelligence and their strength. O challenger, with bravery in your heart and logic pushing you forward, prove your worth to me... huh."
Meanwhile, Lantis found something inside the pot. It's just a piece of letter. The word reads
Visit YAMATO...if only it's not left to die

Post by Asher on May 17, 2017 6:10:50 GMT
Eyes lifted to look at the sky, then down to examine each of the rookies present. It was pretty clear that Asher wasn't taking any of Yuuki's potential threat seriously. In fact, did he look a little bored? For a final moment, the teen gave a dull stare at Sophie, before finally directing his attention back to the person that had been talking.
"Spirit?" Had Asher actually said anything to directly confirm he had spirits? He couldn't recall! Not that it mattered, considering Yuuki didn't actually know a thing about the redhead. "Regardless of the situation, nobody should be proud of punching someone else in the face," he commented, slowly. Why would anyone use that as an indicator of anything? "So, I'm not going to say if I have or not." Even with an urge to always defend his ego, Asher wasn't going to stumble to a level of stupid that involved talking about how seriously he'd injured people! It was just rude!
Not even taking a moment to debate his options, the spirit user clicked his tongue to the roof of his mouth again. "If I had to risk hurting one of you?" The clarification felt important, even if he wasn't mulling the options over! "I'd pick you." Sure, Karin had fighting spirit, but Yuuki seemed like he could handle an injury better! "But, I've never punched anything in the face without my spirits, you know. So I probably don't 'play' fair," he snickered, clearly mocking Yuuki's earlier comment. Not that Asher ever intended on actually hurting anyone! Did he really come off as type of person that should be involved with violence?
Shrugging at the next part about his apology, eyes shifted back to focus on Sophie. "I'm more sorry that you're stuck listening to this," he admitted, cheerful demeanor returning. There was no reason to be so serious, after all!
Hearing the portion of the conversation involving traps and straying off too far, Whiskers fluffed up slightly, pausing her step. Turning on one paw, the feline returned back to Asher's side while he cracked a smile at her reaction. "Meow I'm afuraid of traps," she admitted, quietly. This warranted a small scratch behind the ear from her human, to try to make her feel better.
Listening to Yuuki's deciphering, the teen raised an eyebrow, "prove your worth?" Seriously? "Sounds like something out of a spirit's tomb." Surely, that wasn't the case here, was it? Or it could be some crazy Digimon that had built a labyrinth, or some sort of weird battle arena.

Sophie was beginning to get a bit uncomfortable about the tension between Yuuki and Asher, well, namely coming from Yuuki. She bit her lip, taking note that she should probably intervene to calm things down a little.
"Whoa whoa, easy there, Mr. Testosterone" she said, deciding enough was enough when Yuuki started making subtle threats. "Yes I'm sure you and your girlfriend are very tough and doesn't afraid of anything, but as someone with a qualification of "saving people from drowning" I recommend you maybe not pick fights please?" she gave a kind of dorky smile that she had inherited from her father. She flashed it at Asher too, hoping that she could stop this ridiculous argument from escalating further.
On the discussion of the traps, Yuuki made a good point that some of them might need more than a rock to trip. "Alright... I just guess we'd better be careful then" she said. "So no stepping on anything that looks like a trigger, right?"
"...why are you looking at me?" Lantis asked, a little unnerved. "I'm not that clumsy am I?". Was he? He hoped not.
Then Yuuki recommended they examine things as closely as possible, but be wary of traps. And not separate. "No intentions of doing that" Sophie said.
As Yuuki was translating the mural, Lantis found some words in the pot. "Visit YAMATO... if it's not left to die?" he read, confused. "What's YAMATO?" he asked, looking at Yuuki and Asher.
"Whatever it is, I doubt that was an advertisement, that's kind of a pretty bad slogan" Sophie joked.
Sophie meanwhile listened to Yuuki's translation. "Ah okay, intelligence and strength... hopefully we've got enough of that" she mused. "Yeah, it does sound a bit like a spirit's tomb" she agreed with Asher.
