Over the wall?

[looks. . . up. . . . . .]

Fittin' name, then.

[rubs the back of his neck, well, that makes enough sense]

Thanks for the help.

[heading off to where he pointed out that coin]

[ He waves goodbye and then goes back to doing fuck all ]

[ You head back down the path, the only thing of note being that small building standing in the shadow of the wall. ]

[is that where he meant?? LET'S GO FIND OUT]

[ Standing in the shadow of the wall is a rundown hut. It doesn’t look as though anybody has been there recently… But the door to the hut is wide open. ]

[suspicious. . .]

[peeks inside without entering yet]

[ Within the hut, you see what looks to be Liter, sitting in a corner, with his back to the door. He takes a quick look at you before turning back towards his corner.

[!!!]

Liter!

[hurrying on over- wait is it weird to find someone when you're inside their heart. . . uh. . .eh, details]

What're you doin' in here?

[ he looks up at Pound and shrugs ]

I'm here because I'm here.

Whaddya mean? You're- I mean, we're inside your heart or somethin', and we gotta find these coin things Nyssa put in here, and. . .

[that doesn't sound so reasonable to say out loud]

You okay?

Okay? Maybe, I don't know...

Why are you worried about me? [ sounds more like he's confused here ]

What kinda stupid question is that? Why wouldn't I be worried about ya?

There's better things to be worried about.

[okay you know what]

[fisting a hand into his jacket to pull him to his feet]

Look at me. You don't get to decide that. I say you're worth worryin' about, and that's that.

[ !! looking up at Pound's face like he doesn't know what to do or how to feel ]

[ It takes a moment but just nods and looks down ]

Sorry...

[ And it also looks like he was sitting on something.

[lets go, placing his hand on his shoulder more gently now]

Don't apologize. Just quit bein' so down on yourself. You're a good kid, all right? And you're important to a lotta people, myself included.

[-oh hey what's that]

[ still looking down ]

Am I really important?

[ it's small and round and shiny and looks like a coin (spoilers it's a coin) ]

[COIN QUEST SUCCESSFUL he'll grab it in a minute]

Damn straight you are. You think I'd be here if you weren't?

I.. wasn't sure.

[jabs him in the forehead with a finger]

Be sure of it. Or I'll just keep remindin' you 'til it sinks in.

[bends down to snatch up that coin]

Alright. [ looks around at the hut ]

Should I fix this place up?

[ Pound is now +1 coin ]

[hmm]

I'd say you could come along with me, but I guess all of this is sorta you, huh. . . so yeah, go ahead and fix it up. Looks like it could use it.

Alright.

[ looks at the hut and starts thinking about what he can do here ]

I gotta go find the rest of these. Stay safe, all right?

[heads out the door]

[peeks back in]

Don't suppose you know where I can find more?

More?

[ thinks for a moment ]

I think there's one more inside the wall...?

I'm not sure about outside the wall.

[aren't there titans out there. . . fun times]

Thanks.

[heads out. again.]

One more inside the wall, huh. . .
