[For almost a month now there's been one little thing digging away at the back of Raven's mind, courtesy of a lovely well-endowed Krityan. But this is the first chance he's honestly had the time to sit down and think about it, and what better way than to pester the public for information!]

Hey! Give an old man a hand. Anyone else here heard the rumours of the 'phantom hot springs' out there in those mountains?

A lass called Nami pointed it out on the map for me. I'm thinkin' of checking it out... when I can be bothered.

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

So you're not in a hurry after all?

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Huh, should I be?

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

I just assumed you'd want to find it and put it to good use as soon as possible.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

As much as I'd love to, I've got some other stuff that ranks a little higher. Plus I'm not all that sure if I'll go through with makin' use of it yet, even if I do go check it out.

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

Hmm... I'm a little impressed, Raven.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Really, ya mean that?!

Wait... What're you impressed with?

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

To see you showing such restraint.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

It's not really restraint, it's more of not wantin' to have a weight on my shoulders.

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

Weight on your shoulders?

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Yeah, settin' up a bath house at those hot springs means I'd be the one havin' ta take care of it. I don't like havin' responsibilities, they always end badly.

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

In other words, you're a little too lazy.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Can't go wastin' these amazin' talents on just anythin' ya know!

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

Oh, naturally.

Well, if you're not interested in going to find it just yet, perhaps I'll look into it myself.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

If ya need the directions a lady named Nami pointed it out on the map. Not really wise goin' up there with the way the weather has been though.

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

A bit of cold wouldn't bother me, especially when the reward is a hot spring.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Ah right, I forget about yer 'invisible fur'. But it's more of the worry of how dangerous climbin' mountains when it's snowin' would be, rather than the cold itself.

Re: [Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

Climbing isn't that difficult, really. [Says the gal who grew up on the mountains and in the air.]

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Maybe fer you! But I'm an old man, I'll slip and fall before ya can blink.

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

Poor Raven. [She's uh. Totally sympathetic. Really.]

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Ya could at least put some effort in yer pity. Oh well, I guess I deserve it fer my laziness.

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

I prefer to be honest.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Yer about as honest as I am young.

[Voice]

[sultrytempest.livejournal.com]

Now now, Raven, you yourself have said you're too old for that sort of talk.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Ya do a have a point, but it is fun ta tease such a lovely lady~
