His S'Pang-Kee, of course.

"As crazy as it sounds, I agree with Tina." Tina squealed and threw her arms around her husband.

"That's ridiculous!" Hilda cried. "You two barely know each other? What makes you think you can make it out there on your own?"

"With all due respect, Lady Brandt, I believe it's the same thing that made you run out after us in the altogether."

Hilda blushed at that, bashfully putting her hands over her boobs. "A-and what is that, exactly? Forgetfulness and poor judgement?"

L'abbee shook his head. "Love. You love Tina as much as I do, and you just want her to be safe. But she's grown up, now. We can handle ourselves on our own.

"I had some... misgivings, myself, too. And I'll admit, the reasonable part of me wants to hide behind my disguise again. But, then again, I've never been good at taking the reasonable option."

He looked at Tina as he said this, both blushing profusely despite how many times they had boned in the last day alone. If you didn't know any better, you'd think they were a virgin couple on the first date, with the cheesy displays of affection on display. Indeed, they had even seemingly forgotten that they were buck naked in the forest.

For her part, Hilda was speechless. Never had Tina showed such tenacity before. And that drow certainly had more grit behind his words than he had had last night. To be truthful, it was almost frightening how much they'd changed in such a short time.

Of course, Hilda's own similar journey into the world had seen a similar change in her. She was far from the domineering young adventurer full of false bravado who had entered the forest before losing everything. She was married to a man to whom she once feared the prospect of speaking, and she was no longer bound by her chastity to stop herself from acting on her desires?

Could she deny that opportunity to Tina?
