Finally I can pass through an Airport security checkpoint without being harassed.”[/b] Naji joked weakly, rolling over quickly and hitching a ride on Ash’s tail. It was...not the most dignified way to travel, and it was more him being dragged along by the much larger creature than a proper mount. But it beat walking and he was pretty sure if he started flying, he’d start draining HP very quickly. [b]”And as much as I wish otherwise, I’m afraid our new scaled friend is right. I can speak from experience that not a lot of critters walk around this section of the cave. If we think of this cave like a city, this is probably the ghetto of sorts. Not a lot of resources. “[/b] He readjusts himself on the tail, sitting up a little more so his face no longer had the stunning view of the dirt. He leans over to the other Pixie, whispering quietly. [b] “And as it stands, our choices are limited. Ash has me pretty much entirely by the short hairs until she thinks it not worth it to keep me around.”[/b] He coughs a little, running through his options before Ash came to...whatever she was looking for. A fight right now would be bad for him, though thankfully Ash seemed aware of that and had given the two pixies permission to stay out of the brawl. He thinks for a moment before pipping up again. [b]”Tenative plan here, but let us know before you move to fight the critters Ash.”[/b] He says as clearly as possible with his current level of energy. [b]” I’ll hang back with Scott who should hopefully be able to keep moving around the brawl with me in tow. That healing stone should keep you juiced in an emergency, but just in case it’s probably a good idea if Scott keeps a shield spell handy if things go really south. I’ll keep a heal ready as a last resort, but neither of you should count on that happening.”[/b] Though he didn’t say it, he was somewhat hoping it might go a little poorly. If only so he could see how a shield spell was performed before needing to teach Ash. No reason to discover things for yourself if you could get others to do it for you, right?
