[Okay, and now Nida is pausing and really looking at the guy. Because wow. That's interesting.]

Either you don't know what a behemoth really is, or you're cocky as all hell. Because I've never managed to take one down myself, and I'm not exactly a slouch in the combat department.

[Actually, he... Ouch, now that he's thinking about it, trying to find the dormitories in the guy's condition might be rough. It's not easy if it's not visually apparent, because the guy wouldn't even have the phone yet. Okay, time to consider that.]

They really should have offered you an Iteration as a guide, given you don't have a device with a nav program yet. Tell you what, I'll help get you in the general direction of the dorms if you promise not to use your apparent combat genius to kick my ass for offering.

[A joke back? Nice. Even gets a chuckle from Nida. Intimidating? No. He's never been that.]

No offense, you don't look very intimidating yourself. That doesn't mean you're not capable of defending yourself in a pinch. And, unlike you, I'm armed in multiple ways. Not that people around here always take a staff as a weapon. But it's not my fault my brother hasn't gotten past his sword infatuation to make me a weapon yet.

[One day, there will be a naginata with his name on it. For now, he's content with the staff.]

Anything I should keep in mind for walking with you? Don't want to find out that I was doing something like stepping heavily and having that throw off your ability to tell when other people are nearby.

[Because this guy? Nida's certain he can get around without his vision. Doesn't know how, but he doesn't want to mess that up.]

A stave is a starting point. People would take it a bit more seriously if it had literally any form of polearm head on it. But the weapons in this place leave a lot to be desired. Professional advice? Get to know a blacksmith.

[Seifer is spoken for, of course. He's got a lot of work to do and Nida REALLY wants something with a cutting edge already. But mostly he's just walking now, confident the man will keep up. If he perhaps takes a little less effort in masking his steps than he normally does, well, that's his won business.]

Indeed we shall. We do even. And don't worry, no sneezing. Even if someone has a dog around, I took my allergy medication this morning.

[He does get a few steps before he asks the question really on his mind, though.]

So Behemoths really exist on your world? What about dragons? I had a guy tell me, last place like this I was kidnapped to, that most worlds he'd gone to either had bears or dragons, and dragons were way more common. But on my world bears were wiped out by monsters a long time ago, and dragons are still absolutely a thing. Figure if you're a guy from a world with Behemoths, you might have dragons too.

Damn, dragons and bears. That means you don't get a point for my side. But I mean, there's still the fact that someone else here can hear the word dragon and sigh because fuck those, right?

[Nida really, really hates dragons.]

Though we didn't have nocturnal ones. Now... you going to tell me what's got you smiling so much?

[No bears on his world, Ignis. He wouldn't get the joke.]
