It's not dagger is it? you two as parents is a terrifying notion please don't make things a reality

Gross. How giant are we talking? I'm assuming you have enough fingers to type and a face with which to scowl at my messages, but how's the rest of you doing?
You won't get buried under the mighty oak that way.

You know he's probably going to read this, right? So the idea's already been planted.

Somehow, yes. We managed to kill it. I didn't count how many of us were actually fighting the thing, but there was about a group of 40 of us. As far as I know, everyone managed to get out okay.

For what it's worth, I'm glad you didn't die from a graze on your leg.
I bet the officers get to read all our messages for a little bedtime story. So yes, steeling myself for incoming parental jabs from our glorious leader. Thanks a bunch.

Thanks shinobu. I'll keep trying to not die for your sake.

Damn straight.
So, how did you go down? Fire arrows or LSD butterflies?
no subject
Fire arrows. Lots and lots of fire arrows.
I got knicked in the leg once but it was pretty much a graze. I hope you're proud of me, Mom.

What did you get nailed with?
no subject
If it was just a graze, you better have kept going. It's Dad you've gotta worry about impressing more anyway, you know.

We got dropped off in the middle of the sea. Which happened to have a gigantic centipede fish thing flailing around.

Good. If you're going to die, at least make sure it's not done in a dumb way.

If it's a terrifying notion, then it'd make it more appealing, wouldn't it?

Really friggin' huge. Like skyscraper size. It's gonna take something smarter to cut off another one of my hands, though.

Rest of me is accounted for. Even if the thing was dumb, it was still kinda fun.

Nah I'll choke on a brussel sprout just to spite you.

Not to me? Please my life is suffering enough, do not engage Dagger into parenting.

good god did you wind up killing it? How many people survived that? Is the rest of the crew okay?

Glad to hear you're doing all right though.

I don't think Dagger sleeps, so he's gotta entertain himself somehow. So yep. Prepare yourself. Because I'm not going to be a single mom.

I think those of us who have that kinda training or power is in the minority, really.
Most people spent their energy either saving people from drowning or trying not to drown themselves.

Good. Make sure you don't.
