Well if he's younger than you, that should be easier for me if things turn out badly.

[ That's her making a joke, D. Gaia does know how serious this is since she quickly turns serious again and speaks in earnest. ]

Hey, even if he isn't family, it's good to make sure this place won't be too rough on him. Even if that's just for everyone's safety.

[ There's a pause. ]

You don't have to come. Though I won't mind if you still want to send your omen with me.

I'll be half a minute away at a sprint.

[For D that is a considerable distance, and he estimates it's far enough that Alucard won't be able to detect him.]

My omen will go with you.

[The omen in question tilts its head, and then speaks aloud, its voice oddly like D's and yet not at the same time. "Yes. Together."]

[ She might cross her arms and give him a look but there's a faint smile. Half a minute away by sprint. Yes, she does have a good idea of the distance that's going to actually be. ]

That's fine. [ Including the omen in her glance she also adds a bit more. ] For both of you. Wait here while I get ready then.

[ Trench might require she cover up sensibly but it's not like she does that inside. There'll be fires to bank, lights to turn off and weapons and items to ready before she sets out. But that won't take overlong. And then she'll be off! ]

[The omen is going to wait and catch a ride on Gaia's shoulder, but D is going to leave on his own. He knows where the meeting point is, and can find a place within a mile or two with an easy sprinting line.]
