Probably. I'm more of a headbasher.

[....probably joking........]

[tothedepths]

How uncivilized.

[He turns, arms crossed.]

Are you here to bash mine or my wife's heads in, or is this a less exciting social visit?

[rootless]

I've lived this long, and I'd like to keep it up, thanks.

Then? I was under the impression trees do not prefer salt water.

[rootless]

I'm not here for the sea, believe me. I just wanted to see how you two are doing.




...And the kelpie. I guess.

[tothedepths]

[.. I guess that's kind of... nice of you........]

[tothedepths]

You could always assist me in the task.

Until salt water got involved, yeah.
