Yes, they're not that different. Just--

[he rubs a hand over his face, looks away.]

I don't want to talk about this anymore.

[mortalweapon]

[ She scrutinizes him for a long moment, trying to decide how hard she should push the issue before finally relenting. ]

Will you at least promise to be more careful next time?

[knaval]

...



Yeah.

[mortalweapon]

[ A tiny little skeptical pause. Then, remembering the solemn vow someone else recently asked of her: ]

I require a pinky promise.

[ She leans forward a little from his shoulder, holding her (comparatively) tiny pinky finger out for him. ]

[knaval]

[riptide dramatically rolls his eyes, but holds his CAR SIZED PINKY OUT for her.]

[mortalweapon]

[ GOOD!!! Undeterred, she taps their pinkies together. Close enough. ]

Do not forget that you promised.
I will be obligated to break your pinky if you break your oath.

[ BECAUSE THAT'S HOW PINKY PROMISES WORKS!! ]

[knaval]

I'd like to see you try.

[a vague warning that he will break the promise? unsure.]

[mortalweapon]

I would oblige you, but I am trying to encourage you to remain intact.

[ Nimbly, she half-jumps, half-climbs her way down from his shoulder to the ground, apparently preparing for her departure. It's good manners not to take off when you're standing on someone else — risk for scorch marks and all. ]

Try to behave yourself, Riptide.
For your friends, at the very least.
