"This corner, there's nothing. Time to turn back." Arata said, having finished a check of the corner. He turned around, flinching as weight was put on his injured foot, heading to the next corner.

violet what the fuck there's 8 pages of this bs
Rien looked sideways at him as he followed along, still feeling the walls and the crystals.. "You sure you don't want to lie down for a bit? The ferns are kind of gross but they're kinda soft to lie on, I guess."

if any of the others found this
"Mm." Arata considered this suggestion. He didn't want to leave Rin to his own devices, but he was exhausted from the cave, not to mention all the wandering through the forest he'd been doing earlier. "I might... you should have a nap too."

funny thing is we totally could've done it at forwhateverreason. i could've made a board specific for side-quests. we could've done all this there.
"Take a rest. If we go back to the ferns we can stay right near the light, too. Maybe I can dry off a bit. C'mon." Rien started to head back the way they came, looking over his shoulder back at Arata.

Arata followed Rien back the way they came, back to the bottom of the pit with all the ferns. He lied down in the plants, grateful for a moment of rest, looking up into the darkness. "It is so peaceful like this. One almost forgets the danger."

"Mm-hmm, sure," Rien replies, sitting down beside him. He pulls off his scarf and set the wet thing down beside him and pulls the map back out from his pocket to spread out again. He drags a hand across his cheeks which were still stained from his weird dark tears.

Arata glanced at Rien before going back to staring into space. It wasn't long before he was falling again; that is, to sleep. He was as comfortable as he'd been in a long time. He snored loudly in Rien's ear.

Rien glances sideways at him with a bit of an uncomfortable expression, mumbles something, and moves a pretty good distance away. He unzipped his jacket and turned it around so he could use it as a blanket. A wet blanket, but a blanket. He pulls his hair tie out and wraps it around his fingers beneath his jacket and zones out rather than falling asleep.

*jazz hands* time skiiiip
Arata woke up after a while, feeling better. Time to get through the crystal room once and for all. He stretched his arms and got up. "Let us do this."

Rien had been sitting up for a while before that, hair pretty much dry now and jacket in his lap. When Arata sat up he almost jumped. "Alright." He stands and hastily pulls on his jacket, grimacing at the dampness, then sealed his map back in one of the pockets. He took a few steps back towards the crystals, waving Arata forward, then ties back his hair. "C'mon."
elusive glimpse of no-jacket!rien and loose-hair!rien, gone as soon as they came.

imma just let them out the crystal room
Arata went back to the crystal room and commenced searching for the door. After a while, he stumbled upon it - a normal looking crystal, but it swung open to reveal an exit. "Hooray." he said humourlessly.

"Oh, shit, okay." He laughs a little bit. "I was worries we'd have to smash our way through." He pulls out the crystal he'd taken and leads the way through the door.
I'm at school rn but if you want me to handle this next room I can

The sound of rushing water came through the door. On the other side, there was a full underground river, moving very quickly, about the size of two people across. It seemed to be rushing for some sort of slope on one side, and vanished into darkness down the other. "This is where the water came from, I guess," Rien comments, marvelling a little bit. "It's... kinda beautiful."

"Wow." Arata said, taking in the beauty of the place. And that darkness... just what was behind it? Gingerly, he dipped a hand in the water. "Warm." The magical mystery cave apparently seemed to be giving them a break for once.
