...

I just wish we knew who to swing at.

[ruffboi]

You can say that again.

[Giving her a small smile.]

That's the main thing I know how to do - hit things. Protect people from getting hit. It's not, uh, so useful, here?

[fishingforcompliments]

[She actually manages to smile back. Good for Magnus.]

...I understand what you mean. My skill lay in healing people after they were hit - but that is not possible here, it seems.

[This isn't the kind of problem they can throw weapons and magic at, unfortunately.]

But... you are very good at cheering people up, you know. And of reminding them about what is important.

[ruffboi]

Aww.

[Smiling, a little embarrassed, but pleased.]

See, now? You just cheered me up. I'd say you're pretty good at it, too.

[fishingforcompliments]

...eh?

[She can't say she wasn't trying to cheer him up, but she wasn't expecting him to turn it around on her, either.]

Well - perhaps between the two of us, we can raise the rest of the camp's spirits.

[ruffboi]

[Flayn!! Cute. Nodding.]

Bet you're right. Though, uh, you don't have to make that your job, if you're feeling crappy.

[fishingforcompliments]

...well... if I am being honest, I may feel a little less, um... "crappy," if I succeed in cheering some of the others up.

[ruffboi]

Yeah. I get that. And me and everybody are glad to have you.

[Smiling at her.]

I'm just saying that - your own feelings also matter? You don't have to pretend it's okay just so somebody else will feel better?

[fishingforcompliments]

[i'm sorry siz as soon as i read "your own feelings also matter" i thought of the motivational sticker from the camp store and just started laughing

Anyway! Flayn smiles at that.]

...you really are wise, Magnus the Hammer. I ought to take your advice.

[Will she? Only time will tell.]
