[ Stunningly, that soothes his sore feelings a little. ]
I'm okay with you trying the shield's strength, yes. If you want to train with MK beyond that, he needs to know your limitations. He's sort of like a puppy when he gets excited about something, so it's important that he know you have a hard limit.
ooh, hm 🤔 i can let him know how squishy i am!! ... but. i'll admit, i have a tendency to get caught up in excitement too
... actually, and please know that i'm sighing very loudly right now, you could maybe talk to donnie about it? he's sometimes a better judge for my limits than i am if you do, tell him he has my permission to spill whatever tea he feels he needs to, but also that i reserve the right to deck him if he's obnoxious
I'll talk to him, but I can judge your limits for myself.
You'll find it's not terribly easy to lie to me about such things. [ He's a lie detector in general but injuries specifically have so many physiological tells. ]
i'm a terrible liar and i know better than to try ￣へ￣ my brother would have grounded me for a week if i'd ever lied to him about training injuries. at least. at LEAST a week.
[ good god. she can only imagine that wash is going to find himself here one day, one way or another.
which means that one day, one way or another, he's going to meet macaque.
she's doomed. ]
[ she types something. rereads it. HASTILY DELETES IT. ]
yeah and neither of us want donnie to make sad faces at us. extra incentive!
i was thinking i might talk through some of the pendant stuff through with donnie. he's a good sounding board. you shared what you did about your ability in confidence and i intend to respect that fully, so let me know what you are and aren't comfortable with
one of my inactive abilities is a little like that in that i really really wouldn't want people to find out unless i was the one to tell them ...
You can tell him. He should know what's going on with you. Your other partner too. [ He's not going to insist she keep the full reality from the people she loves. If any of them lets it slip sometime to someone else, then they do. It's the truth, he won't run from it. ]
Sounds good. Let us know whenever. If we need to start preparations we can do that anytime, it'll be a little while before you need to participate since we'll be starting with a clean scan of my soul.

I appreciate the candor, but it's fine.

Okay.
[ she has to take his word for it. or try to, at least. ]
I'll let you know what I decide
/if I have any more questions
(and if there's anything you or Red Son-san want to ask in the meantime, you can.)

Such as it is.
