So everyone thank Bilbo for wrecking the ship. If you aren't too busy helping the girl on the bed, you can travel inward to a small village nestled in the woods not too far from the lake.

[Mission: Rest up.]

[trying to catch his scent or something. anything]

I can't...

[shes gonna start freaking out]

[thisbites]

[ oh my god she's like that small terrier that you can't leave in the car without a security blanket ]

[ turns his back to hook and tries to find the trail back, forget drowned fairycoatmother. ]

[ except there's something off about this place...something that makes his eyes water. ]

[butgrandma]

Derek??

[tell her you feel it too]
[TheYRE LOSt in the middle of a forest and she cant smell anythinggg]

[cabineyes]

[ why are you freaking out. ]

What is it?

[thisbites]

[ snorts and cracks his neck in anger before getting himself under control and looking back at them. ]

We need to get out of this clearing, now.

[butgrandma]

[you dont have to tell her twice]

[starts heading back the direction they came since thats the only way shes able to find her way right now]

[cabineyes]

[ let's go then. ]

[frogface]

[GODDAMMIT CAS RUINING MY STREET CRED ON WHO TO TRUST]

[butgrandma]

[theyre so fucking lost]

[cabineyes]

[ hey owen. ]

Still feeling like I should get what's coming for me?

[frogface]

We've passed this rock before.


[ think]

[its getting dark]

[butgrandma]

Could you maybe wait to start picking fights until we find our way back?

[:I]

[frogface]

[i will trip him down a ravine]

If he sods off, I will.

[cabineyes]

At least we're not locked in a cage.

[thisbites]

[ okay trying really hard not to start growling you all into submission no

i am open to all forms of leadership

i am comfortable with democratic process

i am only affirming myself as equal to the rest of this group. ]

Which I'm sure we're all happy about. Now now about we stop behaving like kids fighting over whose crayons are brighter and we actually focus on making it to town before dark. You're a sailor, can you navigate on land or no?

[ moon is just a day past full it won't be pretty. ]

[butgrandma]

[thank you derek]

[cabineyes]

Aye. There's just one little but.

[ what are crayons. ]

Returning to the beach is a whole different thing from finding our way to a place of which location is entirely unfamiliar, mate.

[ i'm not made of magic. ]

[butgrandma]

I think we can handle that. I'm...good at tracking.

[when theres no wolfsbane]

[frogface]

[waves them off because he's out of shape and cityfolk. even being out here for so long hasnt wised him up. he has a lot of kebabs to work off]

[hands on knees]

I'm sure it'll be easier finding the town once we find the lake.

[cabineyes]

Then lake it is.

[ they've wandered too far for the backpedaling to make sense but he got an idea of their general direction when they were heading for the pool so let's take it from there. ]

[butgrandma]

What happened to that guy back there?

[am i the only one that cares]
[they have some time to chit chat since theyre gonna be wandering for a while]

[thisbites]

He fell in a clear pool of water and disappeared without a trace. So.

[ shrugs shoulders and sticks hands in his jacket pockets. god. his jeans are still damp. ]

Magic, or whatever.

[butgrandma]

"Or whatever"? What if he's gone forever?

[oh my god theyre going to get blamed for this[

[frogface]

Survival of the smartest and fittest.

[its not our fault[]

[cabineyes]

He's a unicorn, he probably can't even die.

[ that bloody fool. ]

If he could, good riddance.
