"Yes," Life replied, glancing over at the door. "Are the rest of you? Because with that wolf on their side, it probably isn't wise to stick around here much longer..."
She paused, eyes wandering to the flower that she'd helped bloom just a few minutes ago. She bit her lip, looking to see how much room she had in her travel bag--not a lot, but enough. "...Can we bring the flower with us? "
"Keep threatening me, maybe I won't be with you at all," Niven said, secretly beginning to worry whether or not this was worth it or if he'd be better off staying quiet. "Besides, you won't be able to shout many orders through a mouthful of vomit. I chose to come with you because it was my decision. I can also choose to go back to my realm whenever I want, and I can choose not to help you when 'you have need of me.'"
Niven paused, taking a deep breath. "Don't test me. That goes for you too, Ingris."
M-maybe I should just go back to my realm before he can actually deliver on these threats...
