She cringed as she heard him say those fateful words. Well, they were doomed.
Marble cerberus and scarabs tore her up as she ran, but it could have been much, much worse.
And probably would be.

Indeed, there came Futtickus, He Who Gave No Shits To Dice Rolling Hell. And Daws was sent back to start.

Maebe had hoped to find Dawson waiting in the room that she'd run too fast to get to, but instead she found nothing.
Nothing was still better than death, though.

Dawson rubbed his tummy like an overgrown child and whined as they approached the ruins again. You'd think the gods would have gotten bored watching them run around by now.
"You don' hafta keep comin' along," he told Maebe abashedly. "I know this s**t's gettin' real old."

She reached over and rubbed his stomach as well, counterproductive to whatever he was trying to do. "I know I don't." She muttered. "And you know I want to be here for you. Every time, until you don't need me anymore."
She patted his stomach fondly, and then looked around the corner to check for guardians. "All clear."

Contrary to the soothing belly pat, Maebe's words made him uneasy. Was she joking, or did she really think there was an expiration date on their friendship?
"Hey." He made it sound meaningful, but Dawson wasn't quite sure what to accompany it with. Hesitating, he then reached out and pat Maebe's stomach back. "Uh. Thanks," he said after a moment, his smile awkward but genuine as it always was. "Just, uh, don' go on like that now. You n' me, tha's not temping, okay?"
And then, clearly fueled by the same boldness that let him touch her stomach at all, he barreled right through the pond to the other side.

She turned, fully expecting the expression on his face, but not the stomach pat. She looked down at her stomach, tingling where he'd touched her, and let out a small snort of laughter.
"I figured you'd say something like that." She admitted, following with dainty, careful steps, until she landed on the other side unharmed. She wasn't going to argue the point, and deep down, she didn't even think she believed he'd want to get rid of her. But there would always be that chance that her unrequited desire would turn her bitter, and no one wanted to be around someone like that.
She gestured him forward, silently. This was the present, and she was focused on that.

"'Course I would," he said more confidently as he took point again. "Someone gotta, else y'all start forgetin' there's good stuff here too."
His path was eerily peaceful at first. Two birds settled on a branch to watch them, but he refused to turn and watch them; they tended to be of the a*****e variety anyway, judging from how often they had been observed getting nearly killed. Just as he thought he was clear, naturally, was when a giant dog chased after him, but Dawson had long since been practicing cardio: it snapped only at his heels this time.
Panting, he hunched over his knees and caught his breath before turning to watch Maebe's progress.

Things were actually going pretty well... until the bull charged.
Maebe was just as out of breath as he was when she finally lost the bull and caught up with Dawson. "It feels like I should be used to this by now. I'm not. I'm really not."

She'd come to the temple to help Dawson find something, and she hadn't given up. She wasn't planning on it, either, but the truth was, she had started to become curious. She'd only entered the room once, looking for him the last time they'd been here. This time, however, when she went in with him in tow, she decided all that stuff he'd read up about and made her get curious enough to look up might not have been a complete waste of her time, either. So she entered, fully expecting to find nothing at all, but - "This mother ********." Maebe huffed out, picking up the horn of a bull. "I really hope this was related to that guy who keeps making me run a marathon. I really, really, really hope so." Hers now. Quote: 7. Horn of the Cretan Bull: An ornate horn made of bone, decorated with feathers and leather straps. Battle Effect: Once every 72 OOC hours, you may use this horn in battle to copy a fear type your opponent has used in battle. It MUST be level appropriate. (A Y1 hunter could not use a T3 GC, but could use a T2 one.) You MUST have a charge available to use it. No freebies!

"Haw! Flash it in that statue's face when we walk past," he goaded her with a little too much relish. Seriously, screw those things.
And was there something for Dawson as well this time in the garden?

As it was, no. The beak once again was beyond his grasp. But...at least Maebe had gotten something, right? He had to be happy about that. And he was. "One outta two ain' so bad," he commented as they quickly left the place, tacking up a smile. For Maebe's efforts and always being dragged in, regardless of whether it was her choice or not, she deserved a reward for sticking it out.
But the smile still faded once they portaled out, and something dejected and cloudy tugged his spirits down. Did he just have bad luck, or was he just the worst adventurer ever...?

It was impossible to not still feel some pangs of envy by the time they went on their next expedition. His good cheer was subdued, his thick brows closer together than usual as they made their way forward.
