They're moving pretty fast, aren't they? [The fact that they'd gotten so little notice before they'd completely taken over Level 1 had been testament enough to that. It has Ren a bit curious about where the plant itself even originated from that it would ever have a need to grow that virulently.]
Cutting them seems more dangerous, too, since it'd just spill more sap, right? So even burning them would be a better way if someone wanted to actually get rid of them.
[Unfortunately, Ren doesn't know the first thing about using a flamethrower, so he'd neglected to take that particular weapon offer from the Lunar Scientia.]
Yes. It’s unfortunate, but I’ve seen quite a few people fall prey to the vines discretions...it’s almost as if the more skilled a person is, the more likely they are to fall victim to it. It’s almost like an insidious self defense mechanism.
[Don’t think she escaped either. Someone offered her a chance to clean herself up and it really helped out.]
Well, if they know a little bit what they're doing, then maybe they're going for people who are going to be lots of trouble for them? It'd make sense to try and weaken the strongest people...
[He muses on that somewhat absently, as their surroundings start to lean more towards heavy rubble and torn-up street. It seems more likely that they might come across someone who's trapped in an area like this, and Ren's keeping a close eye out around them as they go.]
[Ren has started to slow down a bit already, but once she remarks on the situation, he ends up coming to a proper stop, circling on the spot briefly as if to make sure they haven't overlooked something already.]
Mmm, I wouldn't either...I guess we should check more closely with the street looking like this. At least the road isn't cracked enough for someone to fall through that...
[He kicks a bit at some of the ripped asphalt - the channels made by the vines here are either too narrow to admit a person or too shallow for them to have a problem getting out.]
