Episode 4-34: Wasteland Splash!

Grim

There it is. Their signature blunt quip.
|
Floyd
Floyd
|
But, y'know, I'm with Lil' Shrimp on this. Baby Otter, it's like you're too much of a good boy... How to put this... It's annoying.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Eh, anno...?
|
Jade
Jade
|
That's right. If someone had betrayed me like that... I would use every word in my lexicon to mentally and emotionally break them; then tie them up and drown them in the sea. Saying it was your own fault goes well past being a good person and right into creepy.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Creep... But, really, Jamil would never betray me...
|
Floyd
Floyd
|
Umm, he stabbed you right in the back. Then he went and tried to frame you and get you thrown out. He just sucks.
|
Jade
Jade
|
Comparing his behavior to Azul makes Azul look like a paragon of goodness. I think you can yell "traitor!" to his face with confidence.
|
Choice 1: What kind of confidence...
|
Choice 2: That's not really praiseworthy...
|
Azul
Azul
|
The things you say out of unwavering faith in others will rub people like Jamil or I the wrong way...
Rather, to those who live their lives on a budget, it sounds like condescending sarcasm.
You've been pushing Jamil around since you were little, behaving like that.
However, you haven't done anything wrong. You were born with a status that puts you above others...
Raised basking in the love of your parents and people around you so you grew up into a good and honest person.
Therefore, you have become unknowingly arrogant...
|
Jade
Jade
|
In Kalim's case, he's probably also naturally naive as a person.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
...Really? Jamil is a bad... guy?
|
Choice 1: Like, a super bad guy.
|
Choice 2: N-Now you see!?
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Then we've gotta get back. I've gotta punch him and call him a "traitor!"
|
Grim
Grim
|
One punch is nowhere near enough! Make him march to the oasis and back ten times!
|
Azul
Azul
|
Yes and if we don't bring him back to his senses soon his life is in great danger. We must return before his magic runs dry.
|
Floyd
Floyd
|
How exactly we gon' do that? Speed walk?
|
Grim
Grim
|
That'll take too long and my nose'll freeze, y'know!!
|
Jade
Jade
|
A river would allow us to swim back but... Any river around here has long dried up.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
River? Do you want some water?
|
Azul
Azul
|
Yes. If Floyd and Jade were able to take their true forms then they'd be faster than any broom. However, filling a dried up river is beyond our abilities...
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
I can do that.
|
Octavinelle
|
EEEEEHHHH!?
|
Choice 1: Oh, yeah, your unique magic!
|
Choice 2: You showed up at the oasis...!
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
For only a small amount of magic, my "Oasis Maker" can make any amount of water. If I make a river, we can go back to the dorm?
|
Azul
Azul
|
What kind of unique magic is that!? It's too amazing!
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Ah hah hah! Since we have plumbing it doesn't really get any time to be useful though.
|
Azul
Azul
|
This isn't "ah hah hah" level! That magic would be a godsend to countries that don't have safe drinking water! Something like that would... print piles of money!!!!
|
Jade
Jade
|
Let's ignore Azul's little tangent... Kalim, if you would be so kind.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
I just have to create a river. Got it! Leave it to me.
|
|
Grim
Grim
|
Amazing... A river is springing to life right before our eyes, y'know!
|
Jade
Jade
|
Floyd, let's get going before it freezes over. Azul, Grim, please hang on to me.
|
Floyd
Floyd
|
Lil Shrimp and Baby Otter, grab my back~
|
Grim
Grim
|
Huh? Isn't Azul a merman too? Can't he swim quickly by himself?
|
Jade
Jade
|
Azul isn't a fast swimmer even as a merman.
|
Azul
Azul
|
Our fins are just built differently. Let's get a move on back to Scarabia!
