Well, amusement was better than the last time they'd run into each other in Ludo's Woods, but at the thought of attacking the demigod Tal paled a little. "What? Nnnno no no no I don't think I've ever, uh. Attacked you, sir. I mean, I'm still alive, aren't I?" The 'sir' slipped out on accident as the courier shot an alarmed glance back at the winged Bastion. "Um. But... y'were sighin' an' rubbin' your face a lot, for some reason...?" He'd looked a lot more tired that day, but maybe it was from the all the murdering that had apparently been on his mind?
Probably just as well that Tal hadn't learned about that until now.
Something wriggling and purple started to drop down from overhead and Tal almost bit his tongue on the yelp he tried to keep behind his teeth as he barely dodged it. There was no time for fancy dagger-work; he just used his steel-toed boot to punt the Shadow Serpent back into the underbrush and then swallowed hard, looking back just in time to hear Remi's advice.
His very good, very sane, very life-saving advice.
"Uh... what if I told y'that I kinda. Maybe had a quest... t'take somethin' there?" he asked uneasily. There was a big rock sticking up nearby that looked familiar and Tal bit his lip before veering off to the right - though making sure to stay close to Remi as he did so.
