So, lingering in the creepy Woods was actually very, very low on Tal's list of things he would like to be doing with his day. When Remi offered to give him a lift the courier nodded very hard in agreement. "Let's get outta here!" And sure, it was a little demeaning to hold his arms out like a little kid asking for a hug so the Bastion could lift him up into the air, but it beat pretty much every other alternative.
"Hey, uh... thanks for today." The awkward gratitude came about halfway to the ship, right after they'd cleared the writhing canopy and were safely into clear air. "Comin' with me here an'... y'know. Tellin' me about Starfall. Even if y'can't come with me, knowin' what's there'll help a lot."
Who knew? Maybe it would help him decide to take Remi's advice and not risk it at all! Stranger things had happened, and the courier was no longer as young as he used to be. Perhaps he was even a little wiser after all he'd been through.
Then again, this is Tal we're talking about.
