Who: Jude and Riko
Where: Outskirts of the forest
When: Day 131
Open/Closed: Closed
[ Past few days were all about the downpour, but Riko didn't mind all that much—she always preferred to stay indoors, after all. Well, it didn't bother her at the beginning, but after some time she came to a realization that staying at home on rainy days is enjoyable, yet it doesn't apply when you're in an unknown world, sitting in a small hut with nothing to do.
That's why, when the weather conditions finally have improved, Riko stepped outside the hut and walked around the base camp for a while. It's unbelievable how quickly a month has passed—thinking about that, she didn't realize when she wandered off rather far away. Right to the outskirts of the forest.
The forest she's been afraid to enter alone for quite a while. It's not her fault that there are so many dangerous animals just waiting for her to walk inside and attack her!
She might or might not be dramatizing a bit. Or maybe not just a bit. ]
It should be fine if I don't go too far in, right...I'm sure I'll be fine.
[ Trying to convince herself, Riko takes her first step...only to realize that there's, in fact, a sizeable boar sitting behind one of the trees. ]
EEEEK!!

[ and he returns it, but when he speaks, his tone is on the serious side. ]
It's not rude to rely on others. You aren't a burden. We all need to rely on others sometimes, even those of us who can fight to protect ourselves. It's unavoidable.
And I don't mind.

[ Congratulations Jude, you've unlocked Riko's blushing face. ]
But it's rude to put them into danger. I don't want anybody to get hurt because of me.
[ She's not even sure if rude isn't too weak of a word in this instance. ]
Does someone who can't fight be of a help to the ones who can, I wonder. I'm just a plain girl, but there must be something I can do...

... What's your name? I'm Jude. Jude Mathis.

[ Honestly. Riko might be sighing now, but Jude's words did cheer her up. ]
It's nice to meet you, Jude-san. My name's Riko Sakurauchi. Please give me a moment.
[ What did she mean by this, he might wonder. The answer will come up soon enough, in a form of knee and elbow protective pads, a sports helmet and a baseball bat which she draws after introducing herself. ]

What... What did you just do.
no subject
[ She's Serious about this. ]
Do you want your own set?
no subject
[ jude is truly at a loss here. she looks... well, he has to bite his lips to hold back a laugh. ]
How did you do that? Magic?
no subject
[ The question surprises her—how would she be able to create stuff just like that if it wasn't magic? ]
It's going to disappear after a while, but I'll just have to draw it over and over again.
[ Good luck with that, Riko. ]
I wanted to have a power like that when I was a child, but to think that it would happen for real...

I'm... not sure that armor's exactly strong enough to protect you from rabid boars, though.
Hypothetical rabid boars, I mean! There are no rabid boars around here. Don't worry.
