[ lightweight though he is dave is heavier than homura, yes. so he can have landed first. his first thought through the haze of disorientation is that everyone he knows needs to stop carrying around bombs and setting them off at the drop of a hat.
the second is that maybe they should stop going through portals? the alien thing doesn't seem to be around, though maybe. homura's bomb exploded it. either way, they're just in another random place. floater island? shit, they're going to have a bit to travel back to base, but it's not as bad as it could be. ]
Here. I'm beginnin' to think they don't have any of these portals anchored any place in particular.
[ homura climbs out of the lake, because there's nothing to be gained from sitting in the water. if she catches dave's displeasure with her bomb stunt, then she doesn't show it. instead, she wobbles on shaky legs and puts an arm on the closest rock. she's dripping wet in her magical girl get-up for all of two seconds before, with a surprisingly dramatic hair flip, she's bone dry. ]
Yes. This is unnecessary.
[ it's said in such a way that it's easy to see she agrees with him. ]
Go back to the base. I'll handle them. [ remember the desert eagle? the james bond gun is making another appearance. homura makes sure it's got a round in it, and then stands straight. ]
[ homura's body tenses. she doesn't like that answer, and it's apparent. ]
Protecting ourselves against them is different.
[ this is a nuisance, now. she doesn't like it. maybe she's just mad because her head hurts - but between wasting a bomb (they don't grow on trees, where is she gonna get what she needs for another now), knowing dave's been feeling this since they got out, and feeling that, yes, these things are likely hostile, she's not really for a non-murdery option. ]
How do you feel?
[ she means in general but she sure doesn't specify!! ]
I'll live. [ he waves a hand, even though he. definitely is going to go just lie down and pretend to be dead for a bit after this lmao... ] At least I know what was causin' it, now. It's better than thinkin' I was worked up about unrelated shit or just. Going insane?
[ now he knows he is literally just feeling his own aspect get fucked around with by amateurs. ]

[ he is just. following her. dave doesn't magically dry but doesn't seem bothered by the wet, so. ]
We should ask Rose if she sees a way to settle this sans murder.

And we're not protectin' ourselves yet.

Do you think you're going insane?
