[ He just needs to keep checking to make sure he isn't hearing things, Gon. It's very important to his sense of reality. ]
Huh? The smell? [ Shima squints at that, uncertain. He hadn't exactly taken the time to smell the potion before drinking it. He's pretty sure he never would have gotten it down if he'd stopped to consider it that long! But that said, how Gon must be able to smell it— ] You can actually smell my blood? Dude, that's creepy.
[ Though Gon's right. How about they not talk about blood? He looks down the tunnels again, the way Gon's pointed. ]
Got ya. That way's as good as any other to me! Let's get along, little doggy!
[ He hops down off the rocks he'd been chilling on, back to the stony ground proper, and starts off that way. He's still going to move fast, but with four legs, Gon shouldn't have trouble keeping up. He also makes a point not to pull too far ahead, though that's assuming he manages to stay ahead of Gon at all (that very well may not be true, who knows). Overall, a good thing, because the smell of other people — unknown people — will be apparent before Shima ever runs into them. ]
