[Moving the Acolyte is going to be a pain, literally and figuratively, but Jayden's patience ran out a long time ago and so, as the Acolyte continues to make things difficult, he finally snaps.]
Keep givin' us trouble and I'll break both your damn arms.
[The threat isn't hollow; he doesn't want to do such a thing, both because he doesn't like hurting people and because breaking bones is gross, but he's entirely capable of it. And at this point, if it's between breaking their arms to prevent the Acolyte from hurting anyone and having to do something worse, he'll take the former as a valid option.
Thankfully the Acolyte seems to finally come to the same conclusion, and aside from some token resistance such as digging their heels into the ground, doesn't put up much of a fight. Jayden helps Blake in wrestling the Acolyte over toward one of the places the living vines like to lurk, and for once one of the things is actually helpful, reaching out for the offering.]
