"I assume I don't need to tell you all to not touch those statues. Best case scenario you'll burn or freeze your flesh, worst case scenario they will stop being frozen in time."
"Or you end up frozen with them. Trust me, I don't trust those things." He responded to Ivan's cautions, not even bothering to look over as he started to set down the viking's body. Going to a knee he eased her to the ground to not jostle her, giving little issue to her delirious mutterings. Once she was laid to the floor he stood back up straight, looking over to the wizard guy as an alternative since he was consciously making the choice not to acknowledge the sword in any feasible capacity.
"So there's a guy behind that door. I can't say for sure if this is the door out of here."
Al looked back down the road he came on. He couldn't see the others from where he was. Were they late? Did he really manage to outpace them just like that? The frail looking nerd kept up but he wasn't hauling anybody.
"I think the idiot said he knew the guy. Wonder what's keeping him?"
He kinda sorta asked Ivan, not really expecting him to know better despite being the brainy type. So far to Al it seemed the wizard was more of a book-smart type but not the Sherlock Holmes variety of smart. That was to say he didn't think highly of his deductive skills, though he certainly wasn't the worst for it. That enviable award was tied for by both the viking and the cat/lady/thing. He didn't think too highly of his own deductive ability so it was a fairly low bar set by him too.
No, they definitely didn't strike him as too deductive.
