[So, you know, checking the Task Board a day after witnessing something pretty silently terrifying as you do, and Gold is 95% sure there's one request on there that's... familiar.
... And a follow up inquiry has got him hitting up Ryuunosuke. Sup bud.]
Sooooo, Ryuunosuke my man, I think we may have messed up.
[OKAY WHAT DID HE DO NOW he's pretty sure he's actually been good?? Outside of a critical failure in understanding why death is a problem if you come back from it, but. That's. Not important!!]
...Does this have something to do with what we were doing to protect the obelisk-thing?
[???????? DID TOGEBO RAM INTO SOMETHING HE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO]
[Okay, honestly, as much of a problem as Gold can see that being, his personal opinion is that death here is cheap as fuck so why wouldn't you go balls to the wall??]
Yeah, kinda. You know that guy who was unhappy with his job? The one we told to go spelunking?
[IT'S BAD IF YOU'RE KILLING OTHER PEOPLE BUT IT'S REALLY USEFUL IF YOU'RE A SIXTEEN YEAR OLD HOTSHOT WITH NOTHING TO LOSE AND EVERYTHING TO GAIN]
Apparently the guy hasn't come back since he went off to find his "life's purpose" or whatever the hell he told his wife. The lady's real mad about him goin', too, but she doesn't know it was you and me.
[Because he's smart and didn't mention that fact.]
Yeaaah, we should... or we could let someone else handle it.
[gold]
The guy's probably dead anyway. No guarantee we'd find him either, that range is huge. Who knows how many caves are in it? Bet there's plenty of people who know it better than we ever could.
Yeah, exactly! That was the first time I was ever down there and I can't really explore on my own, so someone else would probably be better at handling it!
[Boy is it a good thing this is over the crystals so you can't see him sparkle a lot!! He's always here for slacking off!!!]
So we'll just keep that it's our fault between you and me and we won't get dragged into anyone's business of tryin' to find the guy! Buuut if they can't get him by the end of the month, we might as well go and see if we can't find his skeleton or somethin' to bring home to the missus. Just to put her worries to rest.
[They uh. They don't want a repeat of the possessive ghost thing.]
Exactly! We'll take it easy and keep an ear out about it! Hell, I'll even check in on her once a week to see if that guy's been found yet. Glad you feel the same way as me.

Oh yeah! Did he actually do it—
...That's why we have a problem, isn't it.
[It's not even a question. He is 500% certain this has ended badly. Oops??? Don't take advice from Ryuunosuke, just don't do it.]

[...okay, even he's not stupid enough to just leave it at that...]
So I guess we should probably go find him, huh...
