94. Snowblind [voiced]

[corrinesbell]

Ow! ...Ugh. I am so sick of this.

[some shuffling around, and a dull thud]

...Uh...I could use some...I mean, I think I'm kinda lost?

[No worries there, he's going as fast as he can manage without jolting her around too much.]

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

[she'll start coming around when they hit the edge of the village]

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

We're almost there.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

O-ow...what'd you do to me?

[realizes she's being carried, now, but she can't look around to figure out what's up. The question was definitely more groggy than accusing]

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

I used a small amount of chi to knock you out. You may feel somewhat groggy until the effects have worn off, but there is no lasting harm.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

Geez...coulda walked...

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

It's better for you this way.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

[quiet while she tries to get her bearings. It's impossible, pretty much. Everything's muffled under snow]

...Sorry I kinda went crazy on you.

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

It's understandable after the Malnosso have done something to your memories like that.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

...But didya really have to knock me out?

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

It was better than the alternative.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

Wait, what was the alternative?

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

You becoming so agitated that you refused to cooperate.

[You were kind of getting there, Sheena.]

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

[oh, she knows. But the groggy still hasn't worn off and when she doesn't have a choice in the matter? Being carried back home instead of having to walk around blind isn't all that bad. So best not antagonize Regal too much or he might drop her]

Thanks for not leaving me out in the snow, then.

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

[That's more like the Sheena he knows.]

You're welcome. Now, let's get you home and get you something hot to eat and then some rest.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

...Dunno how I'm gonna eat anything. There'll be food and stuff all over the place.

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

Perhaps some tea until you are feeling well enough to eat?

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

Oh, no, I feel like eating. I just can't see any of the food.

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

You could always ask someone to help you until your vision returns.

[Though he knows that would be a huge blow to her pride, she is going to have to eat somehow.]

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

[she doesn't answer. She knows he knows. He also knows what she'd say]

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

[And that's exactly why he's not going to push the subject right now.]

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

[good. Does he really want to get her all worked up again, anyway? Too much knocking her out would be just as bad as all this amnesia]

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

[He'd like to avoid that if at all possible, so he's going to remain silent for the moment. He'll gladly continue the conversation if she wishes, but he doesn't want her to feel pressured to talk if she's tired.]

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

[yeah, she's tired. And if she shuts her eyes, she can pretend she'd see if she opened them]

[Action]

[lezareno_prez]

[Hey, he wouldn't object if she wanted to fall asleep right now. She could certainly use the rest.]
