[It's all the muscles. The blood goes there instead of his brain.]

Well. Whatever. Anyway. I was thinking that, since it seems hard to bust out of here, we should instead try to get info on Master Blue, right?

[If this sounds reasonable, it's because it was entirely Ash's idea.]

[madburnout]

[That does sound reasonable! He's surprised at how reasonable it is. Amazing that Galo came up with that idea on his own - he is impressive today, isn't he? Nodding, then. Standing up as well? Because he figures this is Galo's way of ending the conversation.]

Alright. I will . . . let you know, if I learn anything of use.

[burningrescue]

Gotcha!

[Giving him a thumbs up! What a successful conversation. He's very pleased with himself.]

I'll let you know, too. Unless I solve it too quickly, and we're already freed before I can tell you. Try not to turn into a dragon as soon as you get your powers back, okay?

[madburnout]

[Goddammit. He knew this had been going too well.

It's such a small comment - he's clearly trying to joke around about it - but it hits in exactly the wrong way. A nasty little reminder of what he was so angry with him for in the first place, the reason he's been so goddamn sad. Kray Foresight. That while he's wasting time here, the Burnish, his family. Maybe it's already too late. Red clouds his vision, his fists clench - he moves into a fighting pose.]

Shut. Up. Bastard. You don't know anything about it!

[burningrescue]

[It was just a joke! God. But he's immediately defensive when Lio gets mad.]

I know you shouldn't burn down a city with people in it! I know you know that isn't right!

[madburnout]

[He growls - if he could turn into a dragon right at this moment, he would. He'd burn this whole place to the ground. Lio's more than mad at this point.]

It isn't right to attack us, to capture children, everyone! I won't let him get away with it! I'm going to make him pay for what he did!

[burningrescue]

Of course it's not right! It's awful! I'm on your side, you know!

[If Lio is going to directly call out Kray, Galo isn't going to hold anything back. He doesn't exactly get what Lio is saying, though; he doesn't know about the settlement.]

But that doesn't make burning down a city okay!

[madburnout]

You're on his side!

[Pathetic dog! He doesn't attack though, stepping back, still shaking with rage.]

I'm going to burn, and I'm going to keep burning until he releases them - all of them - and if you get in my way, I'll burn you too!

[Then just turning around to storm out! Jesus Christ! Please have a normal conversation!]

[burningrescue]

No! I'm not! Lio -

[He's going to try to chase after him, though, and grab him by the arm to keep him from running away.]

[madburnout]

[Galo keeps grabbing him and making him listen and he's so sick of it. He won't let him this time. He won't have it much longer, so he's gonna feel it tomorrow, but he can't feel anything. Yanking himself out of Galo's grasp no matter what, intent on leaving.]

[burningrescue]

[He's pretty strong, though. Lio probably has to wrestle him a bit to get away, but once he does, well. Galo still needs to talk to him, but he's angry now, too. Grabbing his arm back, scowling. Lio never listens. It's frustrating.]

Fine! Run away!
