Snippet #2717981

Bastion had finished his second short book as the group began to leave the room. He debated quickly whether or not he should follow. The choice was simple stay in the room or go out to the hedge maze with the others,

In the rooms favor there still was a great amount of food to eat, however he was feeling quite full and his pockets were brimming with treats for later. He supposed he could always come back for more. Hedge maze:1 Room:0.

While Bastion often didn't enjoy the company of others he doubted that he would want to stay in a room by himself, that said, he wasn't exactly by himself. His eyes slid over to Sklor Iron-Heart, the barbarian hadn't spoken much which to Bastion's surprise was more unnerving than his primal roaring earlier. He mind flashed back to the stories his brother would tell him about mountain men taking him away if he didn't eat his vegetables. Bastion hated vegetables, but hated the idea of being dragged away by ruffians even more. At least the girl "She called herself Nameless?" he remembered the snippet briefly "What a curious name, I wonder if it's regional..." he pondered. At least she was quiet and the man who had been hiding under the table seemed vaguely sensible from what Bastion had bothered to listen to. He could just ignore the pampered armor man, he generally didn't have time for most people- least of all power hungry boys with swords. Hedge maze:2 Room: 0

He spent the next 10 minutes going through the various pro and cons in his head ending up at his last point. Why bother moving at all? Wasted energy was bothersome. He had books (room had been awarded a point for same) but would soon run out of the, (hedge maze gained another digit) and nothing drastically bad had happened except he was here against his will (that point was a tie.) The room gained another point for Bastion's laziness and he ended up with a grand total of Hedge Maze: 23 Room:21.

Clicking his tongue in irritation, he got up from his chair- stuffing the unread books in his pockets and headed outside.
