Well, sure, I'd also like to believe people are at heart well-intentioned and kind. I'm proven wrong quite a bit, but you never know. It's hardly a fair exhange to offer all of your trust unearned. Hand for a hand.
[So, not so protagonist.]
Yelling first this in the morning is also . . . Unsurpising. About anything in particular?

It didn't look like she was hurt, or anything, at least. [ he gives a reassuring smile?? he would've freaked out if she was hurt too, probably, so, hey.
...and then like a true nerd because he's gotta ask ]
So you guys really are adventurers, huh? It's crazy - that's the kind of stuff we read about in books. I mean, Caleb's a wizard. And you're - I think you said a tiefling, right? I'd never even heard of that before. It's really cool.
You one of those weirdos that think magic doesn't exist or something?
[He nods though. Really adventurers.]
Really adventurers indeed. Magic and mayhem. Trying to scrap together enough silver to split two rooms for a night in an inn for seven people. It's really the high life.

[ which has been!! really cool!! its just like his final fantasies.... ]
It sounds cool. Like - changing your worldview and going on journeys and stuff, you know? [ is this pokemon ] You must have all kinds of dope stories.

What, like-- Her own blood?
no subject
Not sure. She was in the other room, and they took care of it before anything, so I just heard about it...

It's probably fine.]
Well, makes sense. Adventurers get covered in blood rather a lot. Case in point. [Gesturing to himself.] Suppose it's nothing to get worked up about.
