[Squinting at him suspiciously. He doesn't like that Tonbo is about an inch taller? Doesn't like that one bit. Looks like he's got some sideburns, too. Is it his imagination, or does it look like he's been growing them out specifically to try to show up Magnus' sideburns. . .
Yeah. He's a pretty important friend to me, for sure.
[Tonbo, that's cute. Smiling a little more at that.]
It drives me crazy, thinking I'm not the one who can be there looking out for him, but I'm still glad if it wasn't me, it's the second strongest guy in camp.
[Nodding, grinning. Anyway, time to show how paranoid Magnus is despite only having been maf for a little while - ]
So! I've got brass knuckles, a crossbow, and my axe. I gave the crossbow to Flayn for protection, but the rest of that, you can take your pick of. I know you've got your cool soul spear or whatever that deal is, but if you need backup, I'll leave it all sitting out next to me when I fall asleep.
Beyond that, I got my Tamagotchi that blocks an attack. I don't know if Taako can use that, but consider it.
Otherwise, just. Don't wander off from him. If somebody tries to attack him, you should probably dive in the way physically and use your body to intercept the blow, since you obviously have way more HP than he does. And worst comes to worst. . .
[He considers.]
Well, if something goes really wrong out there, then frame me, okay? You can be obvious about it - stop around with my boots or something, cut up the body with my axe, I don't care. I can probably argue I was framed, and no one will think Taako would frame me, but he still wouldn't like this plan so do it whether he agrees or not.

Hello.
no subject
Oh well. Waving.]
Hey. You're one of the sex demon guys, right?
no subject
He, however, feels exhausted instantly at being called such and droops tiredly. MAGNUS ISN'T WRONG AFTER ALL...... ]
Mm, I was aboard the ship, yes.
no subject
Yeah. I guess we haven't met yet. I'm Magnus, the Hammer.
no subject
I am one of the Three Great Spears, Tonbokiri. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
[ friend?? friend????? ]
no subject
Okay? What's your attack bonus?
no subject
An attack bonus?
no subject
no subject
But it is the title granted to me for all my accomplishments in battle.
[ how does this work???? ]
no subject
no subject
The battle of Anegawa. A most assured victory over ten thousand troops alone.
week 5; monday
Hey. Could we talk for a minute?
no subject
Of course.
no subject
I'm, uh. Glad. I'm glad you were protecting him.
no subject
He is an important friend not only to me and the others aboard the ship but to you as well. I could not leave him to himself.
[ glad tonbo just instinctively knows who magnus is talking about, ha ]
no subject
[Tonbo, that's cute. Smiling a little more at that.]
It drives me crazy, thinking I'm not the one who can be there looking out for him, but I'm still glad if it wasn't me, it's the second strongest guy in camp.
[Just gentle teasing, though.]
no subject
Of course. I would trust him with no other.
[ it's just the two of them at the top clearly and tonbo doesn't care which one is #1 ]
I'm sure he thinks differently but I know he must be relieved to have both of us available at his aide.
no subject
[Laughing a little, at the idea of how relieved Taako probably was he was paired with Tonbo.]
no subject
That's certainly true.
no subject
[He's been worrying since he found out Taako was going this week.]
I'm gonna have to go to sleep knowing I won't be there to protect him. So. I just wanna figure out how best I can help you do it.
no subject
I certainly would not mind the input.

Taako taught me how to use a gun.
