"If you think I haven't had to deal with beasts dying, you'd be mistaken... And to be honest, I think I'd feel worse with all my desires left undone than with everything I wanted to have fulfilled... Well, fulfilled." Linx shrugged and gave Raiden an apathetic, blank stare. He was reasonably good at shooting his emotions out of the air when it benefited his argument. "Also, if pain has taught you anything about me, it should have taught you by now that you don't refuse me."

Nope... It taught me not to let you stand on my collarbone instead. Besides... I thought you were in a relationship with Lars... And I can't ask him how he is because I haven't seen him for more than a week.
**Raiden suddenly found that looking at where each step of his was going was quite interesting for some unknown reason.**

"Yeah, missing Lars, wonder what's up there." Despite all factors, Linx found little reason to be concerned. Things happened where beasts ran off in his life, and he had no objection so long as they returned alive, hale and happy. "You know I don't actually find that an obstacle, being with your kid, right? Didn't with Zahi."

If you insist, but I'm staying out of relationships with anyone I'm not married to... Hence why I haven't interferred with Amathyst or Lars' relationships... It may be my job to do so, but I don't do that.
**Raiden was still finding the ground an interesting object to stare at while walking, and he still didn't know why.**

"Well, for one thing, you know that'd be useless. Interfering, I mean. Unless you want to rip Ama's uterus out, at any rate..." Linx noted Raiden's fixation on the ground but decided against commenting on it. That wasn't a point of interest right then. "As for the thing with relationships... Um... I find it kind of odd that you'd believe that when your wife you're being so loyal to doesn't follow the same rule!"

I'm aware Zahi was with you once. I'm also aware she has slept with several other females from Redwall while she was there... I have other ways of knowing than being told directly by the party, or parties involved you know.
**Glancing up for a moment, Raiden noted the fort wasn't a large blob in the middle distance, it was actually looking more like a fort and was a lot closer.**

"Yeah, I see that. But you don't follow any rules like that." The idea of a female-female relationship with a participant from Redwall– In fact, not just that, but multiple female-female relationships with participants from Redwall– wasn't really touching on Linx in a good way. It did little to improve his opinion of the abbey. This was more than notable in his body language's reaction to what Raiden said. "I don't know how to read you. This is ridiculous. If you're gonna be so irrationally stubborn... Why do I even bother?"

Who knows? I've always been told I'm stubborn. One of my favourite tactics seems to be run in an break things that can be broken that a foe posses... I don't "do" flexible weapon load-outs. Other than greatbows, I don't sell anything for ranged at the moment. THAT is how stubborn I am when it comes to anything.

The response Linx had to this, even he couldn't predict. He stopped walking and gave Raiden an infuriated glare for a few long seconds before opening his mouth. "Well, you know where you can put all that money you stole?" He promptly sprinted faster than he knew his body could run in the direction of the fort. There was no catching up with him; he'd saved his energy wisely.

Oh I know where... And I know why too.
**Going after the sprinting mouse at a more leasurely pace, Raiden didn't sprint, he merely increased his walking pace to a slow run.**
You can run as fast as you like Linx... But I'm not wearing myself out even trying to catch up to you.

Linx made it to the gatehouse faster than he could have dreamed. He took an erratic path off to the left, going off the main road just enough to throw Raiden off for good, but not enough for the mouse himself to get lost. The thoughts surging through him were, for lack of a better word, unbearable. Why is Raiden refusing me so adamantly? What's the deal with Zahi and those women at Redwall? Don't they mind there? What happened with Lars? Did he leave because of what I did with Raiden? Is he leaving me?!

**Having lost sight of Linx after said mouse entered the fort, Raiden sighed and entered the structure some minutes later, beofre heading up the main road towards the barracks.**
Well... Just the face I wanted to see.
**A familiar voice called out to Linx from a doorway not much further down from where he was walking. Stepping onto the side street, Lars looked at Linx with his dead-seeming black eyes.**

"What in the..." Linx slowed to a halt upon seeing who it was. It seemed he was in for yet another random encounter, with Lars this time. It also seemed that things weren't going to progress well over the next few seconds, which concerned Linx. "Been looking for yours for forever. Where have you been?"

Around... Busy... I've also had a lot on my mind for the past two weeks.
**Having not been wearing a coat, it was easy to see the bandages wrapped round the teen's arms and over part of his head... Lars would have looked more whole if he had been in the middle of a war, so just what he had been doing to end up in that state was a mystery.**

"And... A lot on your body, what happened there? I wasn't sure where you were or anything!" Linx did his best not to sound overly concerned, but when a beast vanished for a few weeks, it wasn't something he could just brush aside. He advanced towards Lars slowly. "...Bandages?"
