I've got a friend that's losing sleep
Gavroche’s frown remained as the woman spoke again. So this woman wanted something in return for her help… well he supposed that was fair, wasn’t it? It wasn’t her fault he got caught in this trip, right? Little did he know she was the exact reason for it. His green eyes flashed with worry for a moment, at least until he noticed Houdini looking at him. There was a look in the rat’s eyes that he hadn’t ever seen before…
“Well Gav? What are you going to offer her in exchange?” The rat asked.
Gavroche’s heart flew into a flurry of panic. Offer her? What did he even have!? “But… I don’t have anything Houdini… a-and I can’t really hunt anything that big…” He was wary too. There was something about this lady that didn’t sit right with him. But right now she was his only chance of getting out of this trap.
“Think kid. So you don’t have anything physical to offer. What else ya got?” Houdini scurred up onto Gav’s shoulder. “Use that head of yours now… what do you always talk about in time of trouble?”
Gavroche shifted uneasily. “I…” He furrowed his brow. Did Houdini know something he didn’t?
“Well the God, Goddess, and Divinities but…”
Houdini sighed, getting fed up.
“Knowledge, Gav. You’ve got knowledge you can offer her.”
Gavroche’s green gaze shifted back to the woman.
“W-would that interest you? I could teach you about Foi and Majofionism… and anything else you might wanna know about the land I hail from. From what I’ve seen thus far the beliefs of others are quite different.” Gavroche lifted his head a little.
“I know a tiny bit about herbs too… Surely we can make a deal?”
I take it hard, it's hard to take
I'm wide awake, I'm wide awake
