Okay. [ The initial 'okay', where Fabian is taking it in. ] .. okay. [ The second one, where it truly settles in. ] O-- Okay.
[ The hesitant third okay, when Fabian is realizing all the implications of this. He does think Gorgug is right, which is exactly why Fabian made those business cards and the suitcase for him in freshmen year - he thought that Riz would like something he could actively use, and he did really seem into the whole detective thing. Even if Fabian still found it kind of strange back then.
But of course Riz would want something practical here too. Especially when he apologized to Fabian before. Like he wasn't good enough. Which is the most bullshit idea ever, because Fabian absolutely knows it's not any fault of Riz's capabilities that shit is going wrong here.
It's just that this place sucks. ]
You're right. [ The gears in his brain are turning. Fabian is trying his best here.
Don't think you're escaping the presents though, Gorgug. He'll get to you in a second, mister! He just-- He first has to think about this!! ]
So-- Nothing for the things The Ball is already naturally good at, then. He doesn't need help with that. [ How could Riz possibly sneak even better? It's impossible. ] Perhaps something offensive? So he has a magical option next to his gun and sword when things get dangerous.
