31: ...
August: ...
He looks at 31, then at Kat, eyes pleading
August: quietly Let me try to help him...please...
"Sure-"
217: "Bai? Vuuuuu!"
He ran up the stairs and out of the dungeon
31: SHIT!
He fuckin' sprints after 217, legs SIGNIFIGANTLY longer than his.
August: Should we...should we follow them!?
"Have you seen them race? 31 has to slow down so 217 doesn't have a fit."
31 comes back down the stairs with a kicking and screaming 217 cradled in his arms
31: Shhh...enough darling...I promise I'll let you win the next one...
"See August?"
217 was not having it, though he may be mentally damaged, but he still wants to win
August nods
August: Y-yeah...
31: ...August...do you...want to try...?
August: I-I...I don't know if it'll really fix anything...but I-if..if you want...
He snarled at August, squirming angrily in 31's grasp
He very gently puts a hand on 31's forehead and closes his eyes. He starts to glow, faintly at first but getting brighter and brighter. He shakes a little from the effort.
217: "...hiyeeee...?"
