Do I look stupid to you? There's no way a bug could hit that hard!

[axilium]

How do you know what kinds of bugs exist in a different world?

[swordflash]

I'm telling you, it wasn't a bug!

[axilium]

Then, what was it?

[swordflash]

I don't know! You've been there this whole time, haven't you? You didn't see anything?

[axilium]

Nope. Nothing at all, man.

[swordflash]

I don't believe you!

[axilium]

Wow. What have I done for you to already doubt me, a complete stranger?

[swordflash]

[he ignores belph to snap his head this and that way in search of the object that struck him.]

It felt hard and round. Where did it go? It can't have gone far!

[axilium]

Maybe it was the first sign of hail?

[swordflash]

You're not helping!

[axilium]

I tend to be like that, yes.

[swordflash]

[he whirls around to stare at belph for a long moment before turning back with a grumble.]

People who say that usually end up being the most helpful.

[but maybe belph will surprise him.]

[axilium]

Wow, what kind of people do you hang out with?

[swordflash]

I know. They're all abnormal.

Looking at you, I wouldn't be surprised if you're like that, too.

[he's just assuming based on the trend.]

What are you doing out here by yourself, anyway?

[axilium]

I could ask the same of you, you know.

[swordflash]

I'm just looking around. This place is too close to the fog, so I'll head back as soon as I find what it was that hit me!

[axilium]

Scared of the fog? Well, I guess it is like something out of a horror story...

[swordflash]

[chills run down his spine.]

D-don't say that. What if something really does come out of the fog?

[axilium]

Fight it off?

[swordflash]

What if it's a monster—or, worse, a demon? Would you still try to fight it?

[axilium]

Oh, I meant you fight it. I'm counting on you, buddy!

[swordflash]

No, no, no! That's the poorest decision you can make. Don't count on me for something like that!

[axilium]

And why not?

[swordflash]

The thing is, I'm horribly weak. If you rely on me to fight for you, we'll both be goners!
