IC: Swamp Exploration

((from here))

And what better way to learn more about it than by getting a bit closer? Honestly, Shaun, where is your sense of scientific inquiry?

A bloody volcano Cesare!

[maleborgia]

Any mountain may be a volcano. Not all are Vesuvius.

[sharpasafawkes]

I've got reports that it was still active!

[maleborgia]

And do you trust your reports more than your senses? Do you even know from whom they come?

[sharpasafawkes]

I trust them more than a renaissance student who has no idea how to properly explore a lump of burning rock.

[maleborgia]

*What's that?

Sorry, can't hear you.

Too far being all the way over here.*

[sharpasafawkes]

[OH GOD FOLLOWING AFTER]

Cesare I swear-!

[maleborgia]

*stomp stomp stomp through all this muck*

[sharpasafawkes]

We could at least take the horses.

[maleborgia]

I'm not taking Romulus out in this, and you should not take yours either. Let them get used to the terrain, since it is an option.

[sharpasafawkes]

Cesare, listen to me for a moment yeah? You're talking about going up, on foot, to a possibly active volcano, which could just happen to take us in one go. Let me remind you that neither of us know how far away we can be from this bloody thing, or what we're actually going to accomplish.

[maleborgia]

We just got here. I doubt anything permanent will happen.

[sharpasafawkes]

And you're the one who took all the sharps from me down in the labs.

[maleborgia]

You do not need to come with me.

[sharpasafawkes]

Yes I do, I'm the one who has any idea about the old maps.

[maleborgia]

I am not forcing you to. I would be content with exploring a bit and returning on my own.

[sharpasafawkes]

... No, I'm not going to go along with it. I'll be encouraging you to do something stupid.

[maleborgia]

Oh? *still walking, btw*

[sharpasafawkes]

...

[Yeah, turning around and going the other way]

Don't get yourself killed, Cesare.

[maleborgia]

Of course. *this is the cockiest wave goodbye*
