[Yeaaah no he's going to throw her over his shoulder (carefully avoiding the hilt of Backbiter) and start walking away.]
You think Mom's actually going to believe "Luke pulled me away from flowers that were talking to me"? Think about how that sounds, 'Beth. [There's a disgruntled noise though.] I want answers as much as you do, but I've already dealt with them once. They're not telling the truth and at our current size you're gonna get lost out there. And I can't let that happen, you understand me?
[ she's smacking backbiter, lowkey ftr. but it seems whatever hold the flowers had is being knocked out of her so. gj? ]
That's not what I'd say! I'd say "Luke dragged me home when I was just..." [ pause. ] "enjoying spring". [ but wait hold on ] What did they say to you?
...that excuse is even worse. [There's a smirk and he's still not dropping here as they walk further away.] It doesn't matter what they said to me. I'm not listening anymore.
