❰ there's a bit of a pause, in which he's shifting positions again. now lalli's draped on his stomach along the tree branch, chin on his folded arm. the camera's still pointed out over the view, of course. that's much more interesting than the face emil sees every single day.
then, ❱ Could teach you to scout. You wouldn't be awful at it. ❰ it's a far cry from his age-old stance of 'emil is irreconcilably clumsy in the outdoors and couldn't possibly learn to walk even remotely quietly enough to scout properly', for certain. ❱
( So used to being the designated bag man, Emil shifts upward slightly at the invitation. He wouldn't say it if it wasn't a real prospect, and the phrasing of "you wouldn't be awful at it" is high praise coming from Lalli. )
Really? I wouldn't mind. Like I said, I'm curious about what's out there, in small doses. Don't know if I could ever work up to days long walks again.
( As far as he's concerned, he's put in his time on that one. )
❰ he wouldn't mind, in small doses. not the answer lalli hoped for, but it's not entirely unexpected. maybe he might have legitimately looked forward to the concept of emil actually being able to come along instead of being left at home, but the swede was the one being dragged out of his element for it. it's up to him to decide if he cares that much about being left behind. ❱
Guess we'll see, ❰ lalli says, tone fairly neutral. he doesn't dislike scouting alone, after all. ❱
( Maybe he'll take to it eventually, even throw in an overnight journey here and there. It wouldn't be the first time he adapted to something for this pointy Finn. )
Yeah, guess so. ( With a hefty sigh, Emil blinks wearily at the sun setting on Asgard, aware that he was going to do something before he got comfortable in bed. The tired tone to his voice is already sinking in, with the soft movement of the feed not helping matters. ) I was supposed to go back to your old place tonight, but that's not happening now. Hopefully Honir can take care of the electricity soon...water.
( Despite his desire to be awake, Emil is, indeed, fading fast. )
❰ he knows emil well enough by now to recognize the stage immediately pre-crashing, even across a clumsy video feed. so, ❱ He will, ❰ he says, shortly followed by, ❱ You should sleep.
( This is met with a halfhearted whine, petulant until the bitter end. )
It's still so early. Not even that dark out yet. ( It's half muffled into his pillow, actions betraying his whiny words. After a few more seconds and a sigh, Emil gives in. ) Send me a message in the morning, will you?
