1st Oath

[When the feed clicks it appears to be pointing down at a blue eyed Prickmane. It seemed to have noticed right away that it was recording by the way its ears perked up. Although its person must be oblivious still, so it chirped.]

Huh? [The voice was still off screen but in a few seconds he moved it.] Oh!

Geez, I didn't think it was going to start right away.. [Nervously scratches the back of his head. He didn't even have an introduction planned out yet or anything!]

S-so umm.. this may sound stupid but, what is exactly going on? I'm not too sure how much I believe this whole 'dream' thing. I mean for one thing, I haven't been suddenly in my underwear yet. And second, I've never heard of a dream that you can get hurt in before.

... Or can that sometimes happen? I don't think I even know anymore.

I didn't kill anybody, it happened to me.

[onehandsomeslickninja]

You were murdered?

I can think of three things wrong with that...

[unlucky_hero]

[... Murder seems like too harsh of a word, although it is pretty accurate in a way, so..]

... It's sort of complicated.

[onehandsomeslickninja]

Is it more complicated than trying to think up increasing ways to dodge my suspicions? If it is, it won't be for long~

[unlucky_hero]

I don't really think I should be talking about it.

[onehandsomeslickninja]

You haven't earned the luxury of my trust, yet. I'm not the sort of man who can just sit back when I see something or someone that could be trouble.

[This guy really wasn't the friendliest bunch, was he? Almaz was right about to speak up again until his screen got taken over.]

[And by taken over we mean the upset little Pricklemane giving Edge a piece of its mind. How dare you say such bad things about its person! Almaz was nice so leave him alone already.]

[... this sure escalated a bit.]

[onehandsomeslickninja]

[Edge, about to make a heated response, instead lets out an 'oof' as his own Hebby Repp shoves his head down in order to make a lengthy and very pointed rebuttal to the Pricklemane's arguments.]

...I feel like we lost control of this discussion somewhere...

[unlucky_hero]

[You're telling him.]

... Pin, calm down. [He had never seen the Dream Eater this angry before. He appreciate the defense but, it was fine, really.]

[onehandsomeslickninja]

[Edge plucks the lizard spirit off his head, then tucks it under an arm as he rises back into view.]

Look, impassioned defense by the whatsit aside, I need to know you're not a threat or a danger to people here. So far I'm not really reassured on that.

[unlucky_hero]

[Finally he got the growling ball of spikes to settle down. Really there wasn't much left to say if the other refused to believe him, or took it the wrong way.]

What do you want me to do to prove it? [May regret that too.]

[onehandsomeslickninja]

So far, you've said some pretty suspicious things. I'd be happy just to have my suspicions allayed. I've been through weird things before, I know how they go, but I've also seen betrayal and treachery firsthand.
