[ she's glancing down at her scarf, wondering if she ought to just offer it to him so his nose doesn't suffer too much while they're here...

But before Yang can even open her mouth to make that suggestion, he's going crashing through the ground. Thankfully for them both, she's got fast reflexes, and she's lunging for his arms to give him an extra layer of grip. Well, if he had to get help by a girl in a situation like this, it's at least one who can wrestle robots. ]

Don't move, just let me pull you up!!

[ And with great haste, and absolutely grateful for it, Kanata whips out a hand and reaches out to grab onto anything he can on Yang. Just to have that extra security and everything. ]

I can't make any promises! I can't feel anything underneath here and it definitely feels like a big drop!

[ A very quick glance down to the hole was all he needed before focusing back onto the blonde girl as he tries to help push himself out too. Shame that actually involves moving too, but he's trying to help! ]

O-Okay-- I'm relying on you, Yang! But whatever you do, be careful! This ground is already unstable as it is with this trap! Think you can give a powerful yank on the count of three?

Three!

[ Ready or not, here comes one hell of a powerful yank. Sorry, Kanata, it's for the best if you don't tense in preparation. ]

[ On the plus side, that definitely got him out with no issue at all. On the negative though, what had prevented Kanata from pulling himself up was evident enough when the hole became visible without his body being pulled in.

... there was something sucking the air in like a small vacuum. Not powerful enough to pull the two back in, but there is something that's causing the air to be pulled into the hole with some power.

And here is the demon dog king all alert and panting for dear life after THAT happened. Give him a second, Yang. He's still processing this. ]

Jeez! That nearly knocked the wind out of me-- [ And this isn't the time for puns, Kanata. But it's not like he'd be able to do much with Yang holding him like she is. ] Good thing you were here to save my tail, Yang. I owe you one... and it looks like we can't lower our guard for too long here even on the outside of the temple.

Also, could you put me down, please?

What's the matter? You don't like being held by a pretty girl?

[ Yang, don't tease the dog. She's grinning, though, setting him down even as the air tugs at her hair and manages to make her look like she's definitely going for the windswept look. ]

But that's fine, isn't it? I mean, we're heading in there anyway.

[ Now that he can stand on his on two feet again, he taps his foot on the ground just to make sure it is still stable before patting Yang at the back in appreciation. ]

Being held by a pretty girl isn't all that bad, but I'd just wish I was doing something cool first before that happened. Now it just looks like I'm pulling off some amateurish mistakes here before the actual adventure begins.

But you've got a point! No sense in holding back now, right?

[ Now making his away around the large hole, he starts climbing his way up the stairs-- all while holding his nose shut since that smell of dirt and mossy nature is assaulting his senses in full force. ]

I hope the next surprise won't try to take us rock bottom so quickly! I'd like to make some progress first before triggering traps if I could help it!

... You don't want to borrow my scarf, do you? [ For his nose, she means. She'd meant to offer before, and then the whole hole thing had happened, but if it's going to bother him the entire way... ]

Your scarf? Hm... [ He tilts his head for a moment to ponder about this-- even with his nose covered so it is a pretty silly image to see. But it doesn't take long for him to extend his other hand out to her with a small grin on his face. ]

Not yet, but if it gets to the point that I can't bear the smell even this way then I'll be sure to use it. Plus, if we ever get lost, that will be a great tool for me to use to find you since it will have your scent and all!

I'm just hoping we can get to discover something that is shocking or life changing so we can get some wind blowing... [ A small pause before something clicks. ] Oh, uh, you DO know that when something like that happens or someone does something so shocking like confessing to somebody will suddenly make a random breeze blow out of nowhere, right? At least that is how those stories went.

... Kanata, I hate to break it to you, but I'm pretty sure that only happens in stories.

[ Except for the occasional tumbleweed, but that's pretty darn rare!! ]

[ Cue said tumbleweed randomly blowing by right between them and right along down the stairs... ]

Oh... w-well... I guess it would be kind of silly to expect otherwise then. But I could have sworn that's how it goes.

Well! Next time, try confessing to someone and see how it goes. You know what they say, about how you can only know something for sure by trying it yourself, right?

Hmm... well! I guess I'll just have to try that the next time I go on another adventure! I've also been told that planning to confess to someone while in the middle of a dungeon also raises a very nasty flag in your life that people should avoid!

Especially if you're planning to retire, buying a big farm, planning to get married, or mention that it's your child's birthday. Those would put a pretty huge dent in your karma so-- let's give that a shot after we're done with this one. [ Now nodding his head in this odd growing out of nowhere confidence, Kanata continues to make his way up to the top of the stairs-- albeit more carefully as to avoid any more surprises.

Once he gets to the top though and peeks his head into the large empty door way, he lets out a small 'whoooaaa' sound before trotting in even more. ]

Talk about ancient! I wonder if those three out of five hundred ever gotten this far in the trial temple? It looks pretty neat and you can feel that spirit in the air-- like something is alive but you can't see it, you know? So cool!

[ Yep. No matter how long she's known him and acknowledged that he's a demon and whatnot, Kanata then goes again and reminds her that he's like some sort of amalgamation of Ruby and Zwei. Zwei for the dog-like enthusiasm, and Ruby for the unbridled energy and excitement. It really makes her want to ruffle his hair...

... But she'll refrain from now, stretching instead as she heads further in herself. ]

Yeah, I know what you mean... like the place itself has an aura.

[ Which would mean it's alive, which is also pretty damn cool? ]

[ And being the lover of adventure that he is, Kanata wastes no time at checking out the inner designs of the interior walls. Some symbols he could recognize written on the walls! Others... sort of? He is squinting pretty hard once he approaches a particular archway that is apparently blocked off by a peculiar boulder; Preventing either of them to proceed by foot at any rate. ]

Huh... that's weird. What kind of temple was this again? Because there is a lot of broken grammar here in infernal and abyssal here... and the rituals in this particular room doesn't really reflect the whole hidden and forbidden holy ground here going by this.

But there is definitely a vibe here though. Lots of love-love kind if I'm reading this right. Maybe this is a wedding hall as the main chamber! Because right here-- [ He says as he jabs a finger right at the scribbling on the wall that apparently is a language to demons for some weird reason. ]-- it says that a pair must show the proof of their bond to proceed! Well, a little bit more than that, but its a gist of it.

Now I'm kind of curious to know what exactly went on here if what we know about it might be wrong after all.

... Wait, hold on-- what kind of wedding hall has a hidden treasure?! Don't tell me it's just going to be dried flowers at the end of this!

[ Do you know how disappointing that is, it's really disappointing. This isn't exactly what she was anticipating, that's for sure. ]

Well, those stories tend to go with the theme that love is the greatest treasure after all! Kind of like friendship, only more romantic!

[ He does tap on wall with a knuckle though in trying to get a sense on how thick they are. Seems pretty solid, that's for sure. ]

But one way for certain to know is if we find out for ourselves, right? Now let's brainstorm a way of proving a way that we have just as strong of a bond to proceed!

That or seeing we can plow our way through with sheer brute force and roughness. I guess that might work too.

As much as I love the "Bash and Smash" method... if there is a treasure here, we probably don't want to risk bringing the temple down on it.

A strong bond, though... like hand-holding, or...

[ HMM. ]

I guess you have a point there. No need to accidentally break the things we are looking for, after all.

[ Cue an ear perking up from that trailed off sentence. ]

You've got an idea? I was actually thinking of trying out that marriage proposal thing we've talked about and see if that triggers any flags, but I'm open to anything else.

Well, a marriage proposal might be a little too much...

But kisses are symbols, right?

Hmm. Hmmmmmmm. Well, I would think they are a good enough sign to show affection!

[ He taps his cheek in consideration between what he knows via tropes and what he actually knows. Thankfully, it doesn't last long to go with a final decisions. ]

Let's do it! If all else fails, we can try something else and see how that goes! You ready for this, Yang?

Sure, why not?

[ Well, it's just a kiss. She's fine with stepping in to rest a hand on his shoulder and press their mouths together. ]

[ Oh, it's totally fine! Especially, you know, the mouth to mouth part that actually takes Kanata by surprise for a moment since this is Very New. But this isn't exactly bad either. There is a little rumble coming from the blocked way though, so it's gotta be working! And the only way to get it done faster clearly must mean you gotta do it more passionately, right?!

At least that was his idea anyway. So get prepared Yang, because a hand will be placed over her hip and the other will be brushing through her hair behind her once he presses back with his own more enthusiastic kiss! And if the motion of a wagging tail was any indication, he's definitely enjoying this a lot more than he anticipated!

... is that a tongue he's trying? Well. He is a dog, after all. At least its clean! ]
