"All votes to go my way?" he calls out, raising his own hand as he speaks.
-
No surprise to anyone, he raises his hand as well, and fixes Ember with an expectant stare.
-
She looks in alarm at the horned woman looking between all three of them with panic in her eyes.
"Ember. Listen. You can be the voice of reason. Come with me. These two can obviously take care of themselves, since they're so sure." -
She worries her bottom lip with her sharp fangs, trying desperately to make a coherent decision that will deescalate the situation. She can't think of one. She can't leave any of these people alone out here.
"I think we should stick with them, Cecilia." she finally concedes, sighing. -
He smiles faintly, turning and starting off in the direction Sehei had been heading in.
-
"Are you kidding me?" she roars, pushing stray hairs out of her wide eyes. "Why would you choose to follow him? Have you been hearing him? He doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground!"
-
"Ouch..."
-
"Do you have an idea of which way we should go? Aside from just a "not the way he says"? Because walking in one direction is the easiest way I can think of to find the edge of a forest."
-
He is no longer waiting for the others to have their discussion, disappearing into the trees surrounding them.
-
"Ryuuuuu don't go far! We shouldn't get separated from our hero!"
-
Her face burns as she realizes she has nothing of substance to contribute here. Of course her only indicator that it was a bad choice was that this man seemed to possess the intellectual prowess of one (1) baked potato. But she knew she wouldn't make it without at least Ember- the sun already appeared to be sinking below the horizon.
"Fine." she snaps, her feet finally starting to move in the direction Sehei led, though they moved as if encased in cement. -
She smiles faintly, finally allowing herself to start walking with the others, content in knowing she'd managed to keep the little group together under her watchful eye.
-
"Alright!" he chirps, spinning on his toes as he walks, like a ballerina, to face the two women trailing quietly behind he and his brother. "How about a game of twenty questions?"
-
"Oh, god..."
-
"I'm your god now, Cecilia!" he crows, running ahead a few steps to catch up with Ryuu, who hasn't said a word since they departed the clearing they'd found themselves in. "What about you? You in?"
