There is nothing worse than facing your fears.
Especially if that fear wants to kill you.
Because not even Zios is there to save poor Legit, and he's shaking like a palm tree in a hurricane.
"... are... are you okay?" Mythical asked, looking at Legit.
"I-I'm fine. Fine, yes, I'm fine," Legit muttered, shaking his head, trying to lose the anxiety welling up inside of him. Get a grip, Legit, he thought, Good comedians don't cry.
But Legit was so scared, he could feel floodwaters building up. No, no, no, no...
Legit slipped on a phantom mask, hiding his mental breakdown with a joke. "Now they'll think I'm one of them!"
His new friends laughed, but his was still half-hearted.
Infinity is fine, he thought. She has to be.
Right?
Right?
"So... are we going in?" Major asked after Legit stood for a while. Silent. Staring.
Scared.
Then he snapped back to reality. "Yeah, let's go!" He ran ahead, hoping against hope no phantoms heard the slap-slap-slap of his feet.
Too bad his feet were really loud.
