it does sound slightly too upbeat but only because of how early in the day it is. he blinks, caught a little off guard by it only to respond with a soft chuckle.[break][break]

"sorry, i wasn't expecting such a vibrant response. i take it you're a morning person?"[break][break]

at her next question, his head shakes.[break][break]

"i'm fine with whatever."[break][break]

as fern delaney presents yet another opportunity for dane to place himself in a niche, he decides to share, trusting them enough to hopefully not use this against him.[break][break]

"i enjoy the quiet."[break][break]

who doesn't? he realizes as he says it.[break][break]

"i took care of a cemetery in mahogany. far from exciting, but the peace was nice."

his feet drag across the ground, carrying him all the way through the encampment until he finds the grunt on the ground with their mangled leg, bleeding out and barely conscious. their eyes open the moment he nears them followed by grunts of pain.[break][break]

startled, dane raises a finger to his lips, but that does nothing.[break][break]

"be quiet."[break][break]

but it's no use. whatever little cover he has is blown. the WALKING WAKE turns back around, drawn to the sound, but by the time it rushes back over, dane, much like his cacturne in a SANDSTORM, has disappeared.[break][break]

he feels little, having no prior connection to the grunt, but there is a sliver of guilt that lodges into his armor.[break][break]

the SANDSTORM quiets enough to allow them a moment of conversation, though his gaze follows the swarm until they're out of sight.[break][break]

"no idea. above my pay grade."[break][break]

and likely above Rhys Collins'.[break][break]

"can't help but feel the less we know, the better."

despite himself, he jumps a little at the little warning snip!, though he's quick to play it off with a chuckle that comes out more nervous than intended.[break][break]

it'll take him a while to get used to being around such powerful beings.[break][break]

"whatever you think best, sir."[break][break]

finding no issues deferring to fern delaney's seniority, dane leaves it to them to decide for him.[break][break]

"i'll keep up," he responds with the faintest of a smirk.

the moment dane takes a step towards the icu, his cacturne is quick to bristle, SPIKY SHIELD forming before it steps in front of its trainer.[break][break]

"ok."[break][break]

he steps back with a nod and watches his cacturne traverse down the hallway, footsteps slow and heavy, before stopping near the end.[break][break]

a beat.[break][break]

suddenly, SPIKY SHIELD erupts through the doors, NEEDLE ARM swinging to pin what appears to be a megalololan to the door.

they approach the situation similarly, both favoring self-preservation over mindless loyalty, but compassion is where they may eventually differ.[break][break]

even from afar, he can hear the pained grunts and whimpers coming from the man on the ground. his expression falls slightly, though his mask keeps his feelings to himself.[break][break]

dane isn't used to this. he's used to burying the dead and making sure their resting grounds are maintained and respected.[break][break]

pulled away by the falling stalactites, he turns, watching the WALKING WAKE charge towards it.[break][break]

space presents itself. he looks over at sylvie faust, nodding wordlessly before making his approach.[break][break]

cover me, he hopes she understood.

though nothing is communicated, at least not verbally, he's able to see vague shapes through the thick of the SANDSTORM, understanding enough to follow Rhys Collins's lead.[break][break]

"lugh."[break][break]

his hand lowers by his side once his cacturne looks back at him, the order understood.[break][break]

an area of the SANDSTORM lessens, fading enough to showcase the copy of Rhys Collins running away. and sure enough, the swarm follows.

"guess i'll find out soon enough."[break][break]

they both know there's no use arguing about it. when they set their minds to it, they prove incredibly difficult to persuade otherwise. frustrating, even. so, it's easier to just accept things, and he's glad annalise henderson does so.[break][break]

"besides, i got you here to keep me safe," he nudges her shoulder before turning to the look at the rest of the volunteers, "we should probably get going."[break][break]

his head dips, shaking softly.[break][break]

"don't worry about it."[break][break]

they hadn't met before but they'd come close to meeting a few times in the past when he visited over the holidays. the stars never quite aligned, however, but he doesn't bother correcting Greyson Connors.[break][break]

"just moved here, actually. still trying to find a place. any recs?"[break][break]

annalise henderson had a particular reaction when she found out. he wonders if he'll be met with one similar now.

"we can either bait them away."[break][break]

he voices his thoughts over the rushing SANDSTORM, accustomed to the feeling of it buffeting against him.[break][break]

"or, we can pick them off, one by one. your choice."[break][break]

in other words, he's deferring to Rhys Collins, making it so he doesn't have to decide.

he hesitates as well, unsure how to respond to annalise henderson's question despite it being a very simple one.[break][break]

"i don't think i have a good answer for that. i guess i just felt like moving here."[break][break]

his shoulder shrugs.[break][break]

his gaze briefly flicks over to regard TAPU KOKO, unable to stop himself from feeling a little bit awestruck at the sight of it.[break][break]

he looks back at fern delaney to respond,[break][break]

"whatever's needed."[break][break]

knowing it's not nearly detailed enough, he elaborates.[break][break]

"grunt work, mostly, as there wasn't much to do in johto."[break][break]

after their invasion failed, that is.

"robot butterfly?"[break][break]

his confusion is drowned out by the IRON MOTH that flutters in behind him, approaching with deadly intent only to be thwarted by cacturne's NEEDLE ARM.[break][break]

realizing the situation they're in, dane looks over at Rhys Collins before deciding,[break][break]

"sorry, but we need the cover."[break][break]

cacturne's SANDSTORM picks up, and they soon find themselves in the thick of it.

"no, never."[break][break]

there is ease to be found in how they'll both be venturing into the unknown together with no direct experience with these rifts; what little ease he can find, at least.[break][break]

letting out a chuckle, he turns, following sylvie faust through the rift and into LESSER MEGALOPOLIS.[break][break]

immediately, something crunches beneath his foot. he looks, reaching down to pick up a broken Z-CRYSTAL.[break][break]

"interesting."
