"Yeah," he replied, remembering the day, "Got stuck in some sort of quicksand while a small army tried to kill my ass." He chose to leave out the part about later finding out they weren't real, "Stupid girl was there too, so I had to try and keep her safe."
He smiled a grim smile. "I had it easy though," he went on, "Heard some guy found a pool of acid when he crossed it." Of course, he didn't really like Chase, so he was actually more ok with that than he made it sound. "Some other people had shit happen to them too, but I didn't care about them too much."
It's too bad he wasn't too smart at figuring out things like this. He was more hoping Hiei would figure the shit out soon, and he could just use his hard work. It's not like Hiei would leave him. At least he hoped not. Sometimes it was hard to tell.
