As My Heart Dies-Chp48

Wander: [made his way to find Peepers in the lounge with Sylvia n Brad in there] Hey, guys!

Peepers: Woah, shouldn't u be resting?

Sylvia: (facepalm) Wander...

Brad: Yeah, you really took quite the knockout back there.

Wander: I'm fine, don't worry. Listen, I got an idea. Wat if we let Brad join our crew?

Peepers: Wat?! :O

Brad: :O M-me?

Sylvia: Wander, are you even sure about this?

Wander: Of course I am. Bradley clearly needs something to do as a distraction from whatever it is he needs to get away from ;) [winked at Brad knowingly] n we get to fulfill our bargain to get rid of this planet's "troublemaker". Win-win, no?

Peepers: Why does he hv to come with us? Why can't we just kick him out n be done with it? [was not too happy abt it]

Brad: ... I suppose I can join for a little while.

Sylvia: :| just no more referring to me as a Horse.

Brad: ^^;; Yes, ma'am.

Peepers: Hello~? Don't I get a say in this matter?

Wander: Well, evn Hatey said its OK, so... majority wins? [shrugged with a sheepish grin]

Peepers: Unbelievable!! [threw his hands in the air n stormed off]

Brad: ...Does he just not like me or something? He and I barely ever interacted back then.

Wander: He's... being a little difficult right now. He barely evn tolerates us being here, tbh

Sylvia: He's just really worried about Hater,

Brad: (think)

Wander: [sighed, then turns to Brad] So, wat EXACTLY r u doing in this planet anyways? Its not like this planet seem to be in any dire need of rescue or heroes

Brad: I know... but all I wanted was some space, and people did keep bugging me.

Wander: Ppl? Wat ppl? :| C'mon, u can be honest with us. We may had a falling out bk then, bt doesn't mean I don't see u as my friend still

Brad: Let's say some of them had heard about me. ^^;; It was mostly women that wanted to give their piece of mind on 'Let a girl be happy with whom she wants' or 'it's her choice, not yours of who she loves'. (ttm)

Wander: Girls tht r related to Demurra, u mean?

Brad: Friends of hers, actually.

Wander: U still went n bothered Demurra evn aftr she kicked ur butt n got married to Draykor, didn't u? -_-

Brad: ^^;; Well...

Sylvia: :^) We'll take that was a yes.

Wander: Sorry, Brad, not to sound like a broken record or those girls, bt u do knw wen someone is married, the ex is ovr, right?

Brad: ...Whatever. She wants to spend the rest of her life with a beast, her loss. (also left)

Sylvia: :| Hey you--

Wander: Bradley, wait, I didn't mean... [too late, as Brad had left the room, bt he still calls out] Umm, welcome to the crew~! [sighed n sat dwn, winced at the sting frm his burns]

Sylvia: You really should be continuing to rest, buddy.

Wander: Its OK, its no big deal. I had worse injuries wen I dealt with tht cute kitten, remember?

Sylvia: Yeah, true.

Wander: Ur OK with Brad in the team tho?

Sylvia: We'll see how it goes, that's all I can say right now.

Wander: (nod) At least it's not a no. We better tell the King here that we've taken care of their "troublemaker"

Sylvia: (nod) Yeah.

[as soon as Hater n Wander were feeling better, they made the announcement to the King abt a job well done, n thus the planet was liberated. Soon, they were on the road again]

Wander: Now let's go head off to get u a new smaller ship, Hatey :D

Hater: (nod) Mhm.

Wander: Know any place we can get a good deal?

Peepers: We could always go to the same place where we got this ship, sir. I'm sure that place is still ard

Hater: Yeah, guess we could try there first.

Brad: :^)

Wander: Isn't this exciting, Bradley? We're going ship shopping! :D

Brad: Yeah, sure, cool. (shrugged)

Peepers: :^) [glanced at him distastefully before setting course to go to the planet where he n Hater were talking abt]

Hater: (think)

Sylvia: (sat next to Wander)

Wander: [hummed a merry tune] Oh, hv u put on ur suit yet, to keep ur "sneeze" at bay?

Hater: Oh, right, I should get to that. ^^;;

Brad: (also had glanced at Peepers but turned away)

Peepers: [doesn't notice the glance coz he had his eye on the navigation]

Wander: N don't forget to take ur meds if u want ur cold to get better

Hater: (nod) (goes to put on suit)

Sylvia: :( ...

Peepers: [gives Sylvia a "Its complicated" look, n gives Brad a "Keep ur mouth shut" look]

Brad: <.< I didn't say anything...

Sylvia: Hmm...

Wander: [was completely oblivious]
