[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

Spoiler

When Kogeki mentions and speaks about 'psychological wounds', something within Kee winces. Strong enough that he (Kee) notices and wonders why, subtle enough for none else except possibly Karen due to empathy to pick up. He dwells for a moment before responding to the deltadoggo - and yay for another wave of worry and anxiety. "Uh, K'geki, are ya not trying to, ya know, bite off more than ya can chew? Like, seriously, look at Sandaconda, it's HECKING HUGE. There's at least shadowy energy twice as huge as them within them. And, well, given what happ'ned to ya last time ya absorbed shadowy 'nergy from a fainted foe - who knows what effect drainin' it from a live source the size of Sandaconda may do to ya. ...Worst that may, possibly, maybe, happen is that ya'll go feral and turn against US, and I really really would like to, uh, avoid having to hurt or fight a friend."

Kogeki look at Kee, and then Sandaconda. "...Its because it is huge that we need to weak him first. The battle will be difficult. Thats why it is necessary for us to weak the enemy so it will a bit more balance fight to our favor. If we avoid him, most of us will be left behind Kee. And the battle itself either against Landorus or that giant Sandaconda would be difficult with ALL of us together. Imagine separated. In a more strategic approach it is better we all stick together against both enemies. Or are you willing to leave our companions behind?"
Kogeki do show a little smile though. "However...I do appreaciate you calling me a friend. I...grateful you consider me a friend, despite our differences." Then his smile disapear to return to his serious demeanor. "I have a plan B, in case I go beserk. IF I begin to go feral, I plan in take my kunai and take my own life by cutting my throat." Kogeki said those words in a pratical way, and someway cold. "I a ninja. If there is one thing a ninja is familiar is ending lifes. I no stranger in ending lifes if it is necessary. And thats include my own life. Hopefully we will not need such drastic action. But if we need...the fatal wound could be enough to kill me, or at least deeply affect my fighting power. Thats where you enter Hoopa/@. You can teleport things to other places using those portals right? Think you could do that on me just in case I go feral and begin to turn against my friends?"

Ziggy Kee listens, holds still, holds his breath for a moment, keeps staring into the deltadoggo of a ninja's eyes with his own deeply-red ones... Then kinda LOOSES IT and throws a Sand Attack (yes the actual move) right into Kogeki's face, now seething with RAGE. "KOGEKI. DUDE. MAH BOI. Please do tell me, ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO YARSELF RIGHT THERE??! Are ya even THINKING THIS THROUGH, are ya comprehending tha COMPLETE SET OF CONSEQUENCES of yar planned action there??!" *twitches and winces, trying to hold himself together* "By all respect I hold for ya, by all good bl00d we are sharing, by all the ninja background ya have, I have da feeling that YOU DO NOT."

*in a less angered tone but with just as much emphasis, if not more* "Do listen to me. PLEASE. *stares* You WILL NOT go ahead and d-die a heroic farewell right there, YOU WILL NOT go ahead and ABANDON our quest and second chance here in an act that sounds a whole lot more costy and risky than it may be worth it. NOT AS LONG AS I AM AROUND. I will not let you do that. I CANNOT let you do that. Throwing it all away, down the trash and goodbye in a - I have to give you that - noble and well-meaning action, which down the line will not be as worthy as it has been in retrospect? Like, no. NOPE. Haven't we came here to da world of Pokemon with A QUEST? Yes we HAVE. And you are up to high-risking to opt out of it because of ONE ACTION right here??! When we have only LATELY started to actually settle, get used to it and progress on our quest? Ahahaha - NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. Just and simple, nope."

Kee's literally shaking now, fur all bristled and all-action and everything. He's almost PLEADING to Kogeki now: "PLEASE. DO. NOT. DO. THAT. I will not let that happen. I CANNOT let that happen, not to YOU. I'm all in for a moar difficult fight than it already is 'gainst huge Sandaconda, if it means that you are safe and well. Because I... BECAUSE I CARE FOR YOU, ya know." ..."And if that means that I have to beat some SENSE into ya, then I will. But r'member - if ya talk shit, you will get hit."
