[ He laughs at that, a low chuckle, and gives a little shrug where he's lying against the grass. ]
Yeah. Makes sense.
[ For a moment he thinks about telling Verso about their own trip to the gestral village, about the duels and the arena and the Sakapatates; about Karatom, which... reminds him, he needs to return to the village to bring the mushroom he'd promised to the little gestral for the Ultimate Sakapatate and its cannons. His gaze turns slightly inward for a moment, considering, before he shakes it off and focuses back on Verso with a small, wry smile. ]
I'd like that. A lot.
[ And he would. The wry tinge to his expression doesn't have anything to do with the thought of trekking high up into those far, snow-capped mountains to see the ruins of trains flung there when the Fracture pulled the city and the land around it to pieces. ]
... but we have to get across the sea, first. And to do that, we need to find a rock, because apparently Esquie can't carry us all without Florrie. What makes Florrie different from any other rock? I have no idea.
[ He shifts, looking up into the night sky and drawing his left arm out from under his head so he can wave it through the air, fingers flicking and wrist making circles, pushing out with fingers spread, unconscious gestures. ]
All I know is it's somewhere in the Stone Wave Cliffs.
[ Gustave looks back over at Verso, letting his left hand fall back down into the grass at his side. ]
Have you been there? Any idea what we should expect, aside from massive bloodthirsty Nevrons?
Or, you know, those too. I'd appreciate a heads up before something gigantic tries to kill us.
