Buzzer looked at his map and said, "Umm, not that I can see. Oh wait, here's one. About two miles north. Mountain town."
Crager said "Yeah, right. The only thing you'll find is death." He then started following her and said to himself "This I gotta see." -
Hannah followed, muttering something quietly in bird to the last of her parrots, which made them fly away.
Sky heard footsteps from behind them, but not turning to look at the other Gem Holders again. They didn't even want to see them unless they were going to actually help. "Wh-Why are you following m-me?"
One of Hannah's birds perched on top of a tree, staring down at Thala and Buzzer as they talked. When the bird looked closer, they could see a gem on the merling's hand. They did a tiny squawk and flew away, back to Hannah. "Must tell other Gem Holders!"
Thalassa ducked back under the water, calculating how far he would be able to go before he ran out of air. "If I can swim up to the edge of the water over there…" he pointed towards a part of the lake that stopped a couple of miles from here. "Then maybe I can get to another pool of water before my oxygen runs out. My gem gives me an extra 9 minutes out of water, so it's pretty helpful when travelling across land." -
"Because someone needs to make sure you don't get yourself killed" Eros snapped, his feathers ruffling
-
Buzzer said "Sounds good to me. Should I bring a bucket though? Just in case?"
Crager said "I just figured it'd be funny." -
Hannah stopped close by the kid. "It could be dangerous to go alone. I didn't want you getting hurt." She added quickly after the other two.
Sky paused for a moment, shaking their head and continuing to walk. "W-Whatever...I'm s-still going to find the o-others, so if you're g-going to follow me, th-then go right ahead."
Thalassa's eyes lit up a bit, looking surprised. "I didn't even think of that! Will you be able to carry that, though? I could bring it under the water with me." -
Eras rolled his eyes but followed after the child
-
(can i join?)
-
No, sorry.))
-
Buzzer said "Don't worry. I might be small but I'm pretty strong. I'll carry it no problem. Even if it's full."
Crager just kept walking, this time with his arms crossed. -
One of Hannah's birds came back, silently swooping in and landing on Hannah's shoulder. They cawed something to her, and she opened her wings a bit, saying something back and looking at the others. "My bird found the others! They're a couple miles away from here."
Sky stopped walking, turning around. "Which way?"
"Okay! Once you have the bucket, meet me at the edge." Thala moved backwards until it was at a deep enough spot to use its feet. It swam over while having a hand dragging across the shallower part of the lake, attempting to not run into anything. -
Eros paused, frowning "wait here for a moment, I need to grab some things from my house" he said before flying off
Void perked up as he heard voices nearby, starting to walk over. He smelled water in the air, causing his nose to twitch, before crouching down in the brush to sneak closer to the pair -
Buzzer said "Roger, roger." and buzzed off the get a bucket. He got one from a nearby abandoned well and flew right back to the water.
Crager groaned and said "Fine, but I'm gonna need to borrow someone's sunglasses. I can't see that well in the light and I don't have a pair of my own." -
Hannah perked up. "I have some sunglasses, and maybe I can find an umbrella as well! I'll grab them real quick!" She chirped, boosting off the floor and gliding towards her house.
Hannah's birds flew over to Sky, perching on their head and shoulders. Sky was silently confused, narrowing their eyes at them.
Thala quickly got to the edge of the water, nearly running into the sandy floor if his hand wasn't there to stop him. -
Eros soon came back with a few small bags tied to his waist, and a larger one slung over his shoulder
Void watched the Merling curiously as Buzzer flew off, debating coming out of hidding to say hello -
Buzzer set the bucket down and said "Okay, I got the bucket."
Crager said "Alright, thanks. I'll just wait here."
