Start with me if you're that concerned about it. Nothing you do is going to be permanent anyways; it's just a way to let you fight back. The whole point is to make sure that she doesn't overwhelm you as soon as you step in there! You're not going in there without at least some practice, jeez.

What's wrong with it? You just let me do it to you!
[gestures up! at the flowers!]
Do you actually know what you're trying to do here? People aren't so fragile that they're going to--what do you even think it's going to do? Irreparably damage them? You're thinking too highly of yourself and too little of others. You could raze everything to the ground and they'd still wake up just the same as ever the next morning. It's barely a tickle to them. But if you're in someone's subconscious getting smacked around and end up dying a few times, it hurts like hell! Do you think Teleute's going to wait nicely while you muddle your way through trying to drag Hope out of a hole they put her in? No! She's going to beat the shit out of you, rip your mind apart, and toss you out! What's your plan then, big shot?
Re: [in the nebulous zone of days like 20-23ish when Minuet is sleeping]
Something doesn't need to do irreparable damage to cause harm. Violating someone's mental space without their knowledge is despicable, regardless of outcome. Imagine how paranoid that could make someone.
But if you're serious about offering, I'm not gonna say no.
Re: [in the nebulous zone of days like 20-23ish when Minuet is sleeping]
That's why I said you should ask if you're not trying the sneaky route.
I'm serious. If you can't beat me in my own head, don't even think about going to get Hope, you hear me? Promise me. I'll help you all the way, but you're not going in there until I'm confident you'll survive.

He needs to wake the fuck up so he can shove alcohol in this man's hands ASAP ]
. . . If we're forming a detailed plan, we should discuss it with Blood Fiend. He's got ideas for buffs too -- we tested one to help get Perci out. It worked.
Re: [in the nebulous zone of days like 20-23ish when Minuet is sleeping]
That's normal for this place. I've always got a big list. Your first order of business is to think of those letters for the kids. If you need more time to think I can leave you a door.

Absolutely not.

...I mean it. Don't die. Don't go alone. If you can do that, I'll get you wherever you need to go.
Re: [in the nebulous zone of days like 20-23ish when Minuet is sleeping]

Re: [in the nebulous zone of days like 20-23ish when Minuet is sleeping]
I know I'm not.
That's why I'm looping other people in in the first place, y'know?

[exhales and opens his eyes, letting the tension bleed out of him. it's fine. no one is dead. it's fine.]
Having a proper plan to go with your goal is the next step.

Re: [in the nebulous zone of days like 20-23ish when Minuet is sleeping]
...Yeah, he's got a few tricks up his sleeves too. If we lay out everything that we can use it'll help us figure out where to go from there.
But, it can wait until after you wake up.
