Now, now, is that anyone to greet someone? [ hello blade, here is witch looking particularly cheeky as he comes into full view from an area deep in the grotto. ]
[ Blade notices, even like this - if only because it's a dramatic change.
But, he is...in a state. He seems far too amused, too manic to do anything but look like he's heard the most hilarious thing that's fallen from the Witch's mouth. ]
[ It's one little piece of information in the grand scheme of things; can Blade comprehend it? Yes, on some level. But on another, at the moment, he can only respond thus: ]
It does, doesn't it?
[ Something bright and sharp is in his hand and he surges forward towards him, bringing the knife up in a throw at him. ]
...There's nothing more to say. But, take that as my last word for now.
Okay he expected teleportation, but this is different - slightly. His eyes narrow, but even like this his patience runs dry, and so he leaves all but suddenly.
Yet, he won't forget this.
...His blade having failed to make its target consistently, that is. ]
[ welcome to the greenhouse! it's warm and moist in here, very tropics environment so sorry about your hair. unlike the grotto, there's some actual furniture in the form of a small table with a chair, and a wicker chaise. that's where blade will find ish, stretching when he enters. ]
Huh? [ sans hat and top layer for perhaps obvious reasons. ]
At that point it's easier to die than deal with it. [ his eyes flit to the wagasa. ]
[ Blade and his ungodly long amount of hair in the terrible environment is suffering but since he puts up with constant suffering he is just going to ignore how uncomfortably dressed he is too.
While Ish is using practicality.
It's funny that he understands the easier to die with wounds than deal, but Blade is going to Blade. ]
Oh no, not at all. That's from that place called "Japan", I think? It's a very popular country name across worlds for some reason.
[ what's a japan, he probably does not pronounce it correctly. ]
It showed up at some point, but I thought it just fell into the void between worlds after the loop where Tia died. It's not native to this place as you can probably tell.
[The umbrella, which up until now has been quite inert and quite untalkative, lets out a distinct sound that sounds like a sigh. There is no mouth, just an umbrella sigh.
Also, after a dramatic beat, it tilts and spins at the perfect angle to whap Blade lightly over the head.]
