ADVENTURE TIME
with cheska & auriel
"...and see, that is why you don't challenge a Sun God to a meltin contest!" she finished with a flourish.
The speckled lady had thought heading north would be a clever idea at some point. Maybe she'd thought no one would bother going so far out of their way for a few stragglers, or that if they missed the boat, she could maybe float herself and Auriel to safety on some kind of... ice... floe... thing. The accommodations would be lacking, but at least she wouldn't be held responsible for getting someone else's child killed. Admittedly, this wasn't a terribly good plan, but it was her plan. If she was going to be a responsible adult on this expedition, she'd have to buckle down and strategize. Get results. Be serious. Immediately, she found that she hadn't been the first to have this oh so brilliant idea, and that there was a veritable congregation gathered at the arch. She mostly managed to ignore them, deciding instead to propose the alternate plan of a quick snowball fight before everything had melted to slush. She grinned at the thought and turned to-
Auriel.
Where was Auriel? She was sure they'd just been together a moment ago, adventurers-slash-guardians, protectors of the ignorant, heeding the call of a real life god. And then she'd started thinking about dragons and gone off on a half-cocked tangent about the last story she'd heard that featured a mass genocide by flood. There were an uncomfortable number of those. At some point in the last few minutes, the girl had slipped out of sight. Suddenly more aware of her surroundings, she whipped her head back and forth, seeking out the familiar shape of her small friend. "Auriel?" She turned a circle. Many a time her Kyrie had managed to hide behind her mother's... shapely rear to avoid detection. Nothing now.
Had she gone ahead? Towards the group of strangers? Finally finished with ignoring said gathering, she picked up a heavy trot towards the activity. "Auuuuuuuriel?" Maybe one of the others had seen her...
@[Auriel]// Sorry to put you in the same thread. Couldn't resist the family reunion.
