Shavaris listens to all the ideas as the band discusses and argues about what to do next. She slowly follows them out of the ballroom as they consider explosions and she sees Travin give more to Ward and it starts making her head hurt. She hopes that Sarah is willing to help them, but she can also understand if she is trying her best to get as far from them as possible. She watches as Delph tries to reason with her and it cracks a small smile on Shavaris's face.
As Kerwyn joins them and talks about the typical options not being sound plans, she looks up in surprise as he looks to her about her feminine wiles... "Me? Are you freaking serious? What do you think turns him on? The fact I can grow fangs or the fact that I can basically turn into an animal... oh wait, what did you call me, Johnathan? A dhampir. Right."
She stops walking at this, looks around at the glittering forest, seeming to see it for the first time, and the spinning in her head gets worse. She reaches up as if to hold her head in place, but realizing this isn't helping, she sits down on the ground and lowers it between her knees. Exhaustion taking over.
Johnathan listens in on the conversation. He doesn’t say much as he gathers others viewpoints. Well if we want a lure I can disguise as Jareth. I’m pretty sure seeing that face would distract him. I also think having a battle going on at his doorstep would do that as well. He gives a glance to Kerwyn. A lure you say, with feminine wiles. No problem. A slight grin comes across his face. With that Johnathan taps his heels together and transforms into his new form. At first he almost looks like Kerwyn. The features were similar and he had the same face structure. However this was a female version of him. It almost like Johnathan pictured what Kerwyn’s sister would look like and made himself appear this way. Johnathan worn armour is instead replaced with a fancy dress that he saw in the party moments ago. When he speaks he sounds more southern than his normal voice. So tell me. Was this what you had in mind? I must say I really outdone myself this time. No way he could resist this. I think we could even get you to look like this. With that Johnathan channels his shadow magic but instead of it wrapping around him it covers Kerwyn until it appears he is wearing a dress identical to Johnathan (Johnathan cast silent image). Much better. Johnathan gives a wink to Shavaris when he faces her.
Kerwyn turns around and smiles as he looks at the dress and the killer (literally) stiletto heels, the knives that jutted out from the heels as a little indentation is pressed. “Cool!” he says. The warrior gives himself away as he bends over and looks at the twin knives in his heels, like Achilles giving away the disguise that Thetis put over him by examining weaponry, falling victim to the stratagem of Odysseus. He bends over to look at the knives, fascinated, and a tear happens in the dress all the way up to his ass. “Oh dammit. I’m not good at wearing these things, or pulling off such a ploy.” he says, almost falling ass over teakettle in the heels. “Maybe you or Shavaris could pull this off Johnathan, but not me. I can’t sweet talk him, but I sure can stab him if I get close.”

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
Sarah makes a screwed up face when Kerwyn talks to her and calls her 'hon'.
"Next creepy thing you say to me...I'm kicking you in the balls." She said, flat and to the point. She looks at Delphinium. "Listen, little guy...I don't have a plan. My friends have a plan and I support them. They're busy, and there's not much I can do for them right now, so I came here to see what I can do. Stopping his teleportation..."
Sarah stopped here, chewing her lip and looking down, looking at Delphinium with a side-eye glance.
"Jareth said something about Blix having one of his crystal balls. He originally had three. He had two when I was...you know...and then he gave one of them to the Bog Hag in exchange for my life. I think they kind of...harbor part of his power. Between the crystal ball that Blix took from him and this alicorn thing, I'm not sure what Blix is capable of. If anyone has a way in other than the Goblin City it's Jareth but he's not trying to stop that from happening...and to be honest, I don't know if it's just because he doesn't have a way or what. But I know one thing. This is his home. He cooked all of this up out of his own imagination. All of it. Every detail. Every door. Every crawlspace and corner. Why would he want it destroyed for no reason?"
She looked then to Shavaris, still half exasperated, and tried to answer honestly.
"I don't know. You can try. But his version of the story doesn't paint you guys in a favorable light, and I side with Hoggle."
“Listen, all we need is to talk with Hoggle and Jareth. Do you know where they are or how to contact them?” Ward says to Sarah. The. Turning towards the group.”We shall discuss plans of action later, however my plan has the best chance of success. Due to his teleportation, we have a short period of time to kill him before he runs, therefore we need to do as much as possible quickly, and a knife in the back is far less effective than the explosives.”Ward says to the group

Well we do have a way to stop Blix but it will have consequences. Johnathan looks to Shavaris. We could use the bottle. I didn’t want to mention it because if it works Blix will be trapped with the alicorn and we won’t be able to get it. We also won’t be able to ask about the unicorn. However it will buy use time, give Jareth a chance to use the power of the labyrinth to somehow contain Blix’s teleportation if released. Also Sarah these orbs that they have can they see where anything is. Like a person or such. If so then maybe we should as Jareth to locate the unicorn.
Shavaris looks up to Sarah from her spot on the ground, "I understand siding with your friends, I truly do. And I believe you when you say it doesn't paint us in a favorable light, we can be our own worst enemies. But we are trying and we are good and we're here to help, the best we know how. I would be fine meeting with him myself if that would make things easier?" she gives a side look to Kerwyn.
"Your friends have a plan to dethrone Blix? May I ask what it is? Maybe we can help?" She changes her focus to Delph, "I know Blix spotted you when you were tiny, but maybe if we were distracting him you could try again and find the crystal ball as well?"
As Johnathan brings up the bottle, Shavaris looks a bit surprised.."I guess? But as a last resort... we wouldn't be able to get the alicorn if we do that, and we still don't know what's in it currently"
As Shavaris sit down, Travin trots off toward Gorky the goblin who now sits by the door clipboard tossed to one side, the goblin looks bug eyed and highly intoxicated, Travin begins a conversation with the goblin in its native tongue and takes a seat next to him.
The pair exchange what sounds like excitedly joyful conversation, the goblin smiling from ear to ear seemingly unable to stop giggling at everything.
"You'd have to ask Jareth how the orbs work." Sarah says to Johnathan. "I don't care who meets him or whatever, but I'm leaving. We're wasting time and I don't know how the clock works this time, and Blix knows where we are. I'm sure he's sent the Goblins after us. Or more Fireys."
She was off again, this time heading through the forest, down the trail, not stopping, not turning back to talk more, or answer more questions. She went, leaving them to stay and rest or to follow.
Shavaris yawns. She then slowly gets up and brushes herself off. Facing Travin, "Alright buddy, wrap it up it's time to go."
She then looks to the rest, "She's right, even if we can't convince Hoggle and Jareth, staying here isn't a good idea." shrugging, she heads off after Sarah.
Travin jumps up and gives a cheerful bow to Shavaris in response, he says something to Gorky in goblish and they both laugh. Travin then helps the goblin to his feet and guides him toward Birt, "the gang is all here yeh yeh! Travin still wants a rest though hmmm!?" He then begins following Sara, Shavaris and the group, with Birt and Gorky in tow.
Johnathan follows Sarah with the rest. As he walks he occasionally summons an image of himself and starts trying to confuse the others on which one is the real one. When Johnathan speaks so does the dupe, though it doesn’t actually speak, just mimics Johnathan. Just passing time
Delphinium flies out after Sarah as they don't really want to fight right now as many of their friends look hurt and the fairy themselves is quite hurt too. When they get out the look around for the other nobles but before approaching them the fairy flies to Sarah landing on her shoulder to rest their very sore wings a moment and says "Sarah, do you know any of these important looking people we helped escape Blix's attack? I want to make a good last impression since Blix made such a terrible one attacking them. Also, do they have a way to get back to their homes?"
Sarah thought about Delphinium's question as they walked, and tried to answer as best she could.
"I have no idea who those people were. I'm...not from around here. As for how they got back home, I have no idea."
The path took them on and on, deeper into the whimsical forest, past old growth trees with enormous trunks and reaching branches. Fey things, or seemingly Fey things, peaked at them from the undergrowth, from tiny doors built in trees. One tree smelled delicious, like baking cookies, as a whole town's worth of Brownies baked their goods inside.
They walked for maybe half an hour, following the trail deep into the forest, before they came across a clearing that supported a makeshift town. There were treehouses overhead, some of which were damaged badly, and below that there were standing stones poking from the ground everywhere.
There were representatives from the Labyrinth's major races gathered there. Horned Beasts. Fireys that hadn't been mutated like Birt. Dwarves, all of which apparently had a propensity for shaving like Hoggle which was weird to see in their kind. Lupines, all of which were done up in their spiffiest outfits and adorned with the weaponry of knighthood. Hoggle, Ludo, and Sir Didymus were amongst this rabble, and even Jareth, and those dozen and a half or so representatives from the many races. They were all discussing what to do next, how to do it, the pros and cons of taking the Goblin City, how to attack the Castle, how to attack Blix, what to do about the Goblins and, oh yeah, there were a couple of Goblins there amongst the rabble that looked like they were siding with this group...
It was all rather confusing. And no one seemed to be in charge.
Travin sidles over to Ward and quietly mutters "maybe Ward keeps his explosion plan to himself yeh yeh? Travin thinks they'll kicks us out hmm? Maybe not takes the dawn guard seriously, hmmm?"
He then puts his arm around the highly intoxicated Gorky and waves his other arm in the air loudly announcing to the assembled masses, "HERE APPROACHES THE DAWN GUARD! YEH YEH!!! ...and the Sarah." He nods to Sara as if he did her a favour.
When Delphinium sees the fey-like forest they beam with delight and give a small "Eeeeeee!" of excitement and zoom off ahead of the group. They definitely follow their nose towards the tree that smells extra delicious. They knock on the tiny door with curiosity and patiently wait for whoever is within to answer. Answer or not they try not to let the group get too far ahead of them. They seem keen on flying around the heads of the group and will zoom off ahead of them whenever they see something of particular interest. This felt like home to the tiny fairy as they tried to figure out more about the fey that live here. If they spot a larger building or some wondering fairies they will immediately zoom over to them to say "Hello! How are you? What can you tell me about the fey here? Any special rules I need to be aware of? I don't want to upset any of the local fey and often they have unique ways they appreciate others following." Overall, Delphinium probably slows the group down a lot even with them zooming ahead to look around the whimsical forest. Delphinium gets distracted by all kinds of things like flowers, cookie smells, other fairies, unique plants, and pretty much anything brightly colored.
They would slowly make their way with the group though and when spotting Sir Didymus, Ludo, Hoggle and many other races (EVEN GOBLINS!) all gathered they smile and glow more brightly. A mix of races and creatures all working together reminds them of their own forest home. Perhaps not as many animals but the diversity felt the same. They would zoom around the group and land on Jerath's Shoulder. Not interrupting anything Jerath was saying by dimming their glow a bit (which seems to be a struggle for them but they manage) and they even manage to be polite and not interrupt and just listen for a bit to the former goblin king. They wanted to get a sense of what they were suggesting or talking about before adding their own idea to the mix. Besides, even yelling it would be hard to get everyone's attention... unless you were a tiny fairy that had a major idea on how to get everyone to pay attention to you.
The Brownie that opened the door of the cookie factory tree looks out, his green overcoat and little brown hat looking like it'd be too hot for such a bakery operation but somehow...very fitting. He looked left and right, seeming to be very wary of those gathered outside the door, and then spoke.
"Hello." He said, sounding unsure of what was happening. "I'm very well, thank you. How are you today? The Fey? I mean, there is lots of Fey things here in the Labyrinth! But uh...I wouldn't even know where to begin with what to tell you. Perhaps you should uh...find the Brownie village and ask them but uh...be careful. They have quite eclectic tastes."
The Brownie tipped his hat, stuffed Delphinium's hands full of cookies, and then shut the door.
The gathering was going well...until Travin announced their approach. Jareth smirked. Hoggle covered his face with one hand and said "oh great, not them again". Sir Didymus was at least very happy, especially when Delphinium flew over and alighted on Jareth's shoulder. Ludo didn't seem to care about anyone in the group other than Sarah, who had pulled in close for a tight embrace.
"Ah, here the are now!" Jareth says, motioning a hand toward Delphinium on his shoulder. "This is the team that I think can get the Alicorn from Blix and kick him out of the Labyrinth and seat me back on my throne! And of course, make all right with the world."
”Jareth, the mushroom folk? Will they join the battle, have you spoken with them. For the rest of you, why is your plan? What do you know about this place that may help us. Hoggle, I just need a map to wherever they store gunpowder, and the castle Blix reside in, since well, I won’t blame you if you don’t wish to travel with us.” Ward says, talking a little bit quieter and more directed towards Hoggle.

Johnathan drops his dupe when they approach the many people. He keeps an eye on the goblins nearby, too many for his liking. He tries to step back and let the others do the talking but that’s when Jareth puts the attention on the party. He turns to Hoggle, Well hello to you to. Johnathan tries to give a smile to Hoggle but sensing his mood decides to leave it for now. Johnathan’s heart truly breaks when he sees the fox hide still alive. I mean it’s a fox. How hard can it be to just disappear. Let’s hope it doesn’t talk to me or maybe I’ll fill my flask. Johnathan takes a sip from his flask, worried that it’s been some time since he last filled it and is trying to ration it a bit. Johnathan gives a frown to Jareth when he says all that the dawn guard are expected to do. Oh, is that all? You sure expect a lot from us huh. Well I think it’s about time you tell the Dawn guard what the plan is. We tried to fight Blix in that death trap you sent us to, thanks for that Jareth by the way, but it just teleported before most of us could even swing a sword. I want a better plan than just sending us to charge blindly to it. As Johnathan says it again he gives a glance to the goblins in the room.

Well I think it’s about time you tell the Dawn guard what the plan is. We tried to fight Blix in that death trap you sent us to, thanks for that Jareth by the way, but it just teleported before most of us could even swing a sword. I want a better plan than just sending us to charge blindly to it. As Johnathan says it again he gives a glance to the goblins in the room.
