A rustling sound sounds from behind the Bad Taste Snake, and suddenly, a small fox leaps out, growling at Roulette... The hunter becomes the prey!
"Well... I did a bunch more thinking last night, and... I mean, I do really want to go to Hecate's magic school... But I also hate the idea of leaving you wit hall the other crazies here! But, I also want to be able to help in the escape attemp, but what if I miss the escape attempt, and you get really hurt?!"
"It will be a lot of work... Mainly looking for populations from other lakes and such to reintroduce that are healthy in this polluted state.."
The snake slithers away 90 feet, moving at a strangely fast speed
"... Amber... We dont know anything about that place... Why do you want to go so badly?"
"Hm... Do you need help? I could try!"
The fox chases after, the rabit nest abandoned, growling.
"Well, I'd like to actually help in the escape attempt!"
She smiles "Liam and I would be happy to have your help! The more hands the better!"
*Whats its speed?*
"Amber!! How long will it be?? Please think about that! I cant go another week in this damn place!!!"
"Alright!"
*thirty feet*
"I... But..."
"Do you know many other freshwater sources nearby? I.."
The fox quickly begins falling far behind, as the snake outpaces it and heads under roots
"... But?"
"Hm... Well, no, not really... MAybe ask another naiad!"
Arpo suddenly swoops down and catches the fox, rising up into the air to drop it back dowmn, the fox dying on impact with the ground.
"... I want to be able to do this. To do magic... I mean..."
"I.. Maybe... I met one but Im.. Still unsure about speaking to other naiads "
Roulette looks relieved, stopping and guarding the fix until Arpo gets down
"... Well you have a frikin choice it seems then. Im trying on Tuesday... Its been too long since last try.."
"Why not?"
Arpo swoops down, and pushes the fox towards Roulette. "Bad taste snake good hunting partner! Bad taste snake lured red dog out ito open for Arpo to catch!"
"Well, according to you, I only have one choice, to stay!"
"... I dont know I just... I still dont fully feel I am... One of them.."
'TERRIFYING FOX !! BIG !! ALMOST EAT ME!'
"... You can frikin leave if you want. But youd have to catch up out there yourself... I cant wait an indefinitely long time for you to go to a school run by some maniac you bowed to when she got here that we have no guarantees is safe, and yet you want to go anyway..."
"Mmm. Why not?"
"Yes! And that point! Arpo see Red Dog, but Red Dog scared of Arpo! So Arpo drop off bad taste snake, then arpo fly away, then arpo swoop in to cathc Red Dog!"
"Well, it's the only chance I have of being able to see my parents again!"
"Im.... Im not one. I was a haliae for millennia... That doesn't change in 34 years.."
'WARN NEXT TIME!!'
"What?! How??"
"Hm... And this makes you feel worse than them?"
"Okay! Arpo will warn Bad Taste Snake next time!"
"... HEcate has some control over ghosts and stuff like that... Maybe.."
"... Not worse. Just... Just different. I dont fit in with the rest of them.."
'THANK !! FIRST RUN IN LONG TIME'
".... Where the heck did you get the idea that crazy lady has necromancy?? Also dont frikin trust necromancy?!!"
"Hm... and have you ever talked to any other ones?"
"Okay! Now, eat up Bad Taste Snake!"
"... from the fact she's literally the goddess of ghosts...?"
"Only one recently.. I...."
'BIG ! NEED SMALLER PIECES !'
"... Im sorry the creep is another goddess?! Thats another damn reason not to go!!!"
"You...?"
"Oh! Okay!" Arpo begins to cut the pieces wit hhis talons.
"Says the one who doesn't have dead parents!"

Hiya, there! I'm Gonzalo2, but you can just call me Gonz! (Don't ask about what happened to Gonzalo1.) I'm just an ADHD theater nerd who has too much time on my hands and too little sleep! This is my original account, but you’ll probably see me on my main accounts, Gonzalo3, and Gonzalo5. Don’t ask why I have so many alts.
Harvey notices the boy, looking over, pausing his argument with himself. “Oh-…hi?”
“I- sorry, I heard talking.” He rubs his forehead. “Are you talking to…yourself?”
He pauses. “That’s… nothing. I’ve just been hearing things…”
“I have too.” He says quietly. “I don’t think I’m crazy. I sort of don’t.. know what I’m doing here. I think I’m a demigod?”
“Well, if you’re at camp, then probably? Normal people can’t get past the border.”
He sits on the ground, looking down at the floor. “Yea. That makes sense. Sorry for bothering you.” He pauses. “The plant thing you’re doing is cool.”

"Hah... I'll gove you a hint with my answer. Two letters, starts with 'N' and ends with 'O'."
"Then we separate here and now, forever. Don't ever try to come talk to me, don't ever try to fight me, and don't even speak my name. I've tried to be civil, but youre acting like a child." he stands up, sighing angrily
“Maybe because I am a child, dumb[gp]!”
He sighs. "Yeah, yeah I know. Farbeit it from me to try and have a civil conversation with somebody such as you. Stay out of my life, don't speak my name. I'll give you the same."
*Thanks!*
"Oh yes, like a thirteen year old who just lost her father is supposed to be civl!"
"You could at least try not cussing fluently like an adult! I expected you to cry, to scream and hit me. This.. cussing is weird. But, obviously you want nothing to do with me, so I'm just going to leave you alone"
"Well, I've found that hitting people ends up with the person wo started hitting people to stay alive while my did dies!"

“I’m not gunsmith, but you’ve seen what I’ve done with just your gun. I’ll get some done by the end of today, and I’ll start at noon, I want to give myself a challenge. You’ll have… a little over two hundred.” He smiles happily.
“Not without me! Can I help at all? I need to learn to make my own bullets as well. Can’t always be relying on you, can I?” Cayde says teasingly, folding his arms. “And two hundred? Bloody hell, you work fast.”

She pauses a moment, closing her eyes, before looking at his "Whatever your heart says. Conversation and making friends isn't about saying a correct answer.

*Lets see if dice do! 2
*actually could we swap Elizabeth with Caleb? I feel like Caleb :>*
*Sure :)) Go ahead and bring him in!*
Caleb is by the lake’s edge, skipping stones. He’s warm enough right now that the water isn’t freezing.
Makana pops out from where one of the stones hit "Owww.... Again..?" She mutters to herself, before looking to Caleb "O-oh! Hello Caleb! Good morning... oww..."
