"Well... maybe I could try talkin' t'her again," he dragged out reluctantly in regards to Kiada. "But... I dunno. Not just yet?" The sting of having Astaroth and Danta shoot him down was still fresh enough that he didn't want to open up the scab Kiada had left on his ego anytime soon.
Mention of Sah perked him up at least, though he pretended to scowl about it and he definitely made a show of not seeing Maea's grin. He was far too busy watching it for trouble in the skies around them. Yup. But the levity didn't last nearly long enough as she deflated a moment later and Boreal crooned reassuringly from her lap.
"I mean, you've been workin' with others just fine since I've known you." The courier glanced over, snorting at the sight of his dragon cuddled so happily around the petite Ancient. "Y'ran that Void-experiment an' kept us all workin' together like a pro. An' you an' me an' Ru did a good job o' clearin' void shit outta the Grounds that day. Wasn't perfect, but no real fight is," he said with a shrug. "An if we're settin' trainin' aside, th'only way t'get experience is to experience it, yeah?" But her suggestion wasn't necessarily a bad one and Tal tilted his head to the side much like Boreal did when she didn't understand what someone had said to her. "What're y'thinkin' about for a practice run?"
