Ruli: -turns around- Huh? Who are the Fuck are you?
The man huffed a bit at the rude greeting. "I could ask ya th' same thing," he retorted. "Th' name's Taro, what's yer's?"
??: It's Ruli. Motherfucker!
Taro blinked, rubbed his eyes and looked around. Weren't the two of them the only ones here right now? Did he just imagine another voice?
Dang, this girl was fast! Taro stumbled a few steps away from her as he spun around. "H-how'd ya do that?!"
Ruli: Easy, I'm awesome
Taro's surprise soon was replaced by his earlier grumpiness. It was still raining, and standing around chatting would only slow him down from getting to the next town.
Rolling his eyes, he then said, "Yeah, yeah...whatever. Don't ya have a hoard ya need to build or guard or somethin'? What're ya doin' 'round these parts?"
"Smash stuff, eh?" Taro asked redundently. "What kind a' stuff?"
If anything, talking while walking is helping him keep his mind off of the annoying weather.
