Warden Time!

Who: Mamika + The Warden Crew! (This could be you!!!)
What: Talking to the Warden
When: Beginning of May
Where: The Forest
Warnings: Will be in the header as they come up

[ Neo Eden is officially gone and everyone is back in the Grove, and Mamika, of course, has been planning her trip to the Forest all last month. She has...a LOT of things prepared. Food and blankets and extra clothes and lanterns and even stuff like hand fans and wilderness books. Overprepped and ready to go! The afternoon before, Mamika writes a message in the notebook. ]

Everyone, please sleep well! Please meet up with me by the well in the morning if you want to talk to the Mister Hooldin.

[ Warden. She's doing her best.

Regardless, she put together a bunch of packs with said stuff shoved in them, and Mamika is handing all of them off to people who show up with a little smile. She's still in her school outfit, but her magical wand is out. She probably intends to transform before they actually go out into the woods. Understandably. ]


Okay! Um... so... I'm not really sure what to expect out there! But... we're gonna do our best to talk to him and hopefully convince him to come to the Grove. Someone might have to talk to Miss Mooselady, too, because I don't think they like each other that much, but... um!! I think we can do this!

We should still have things planned in case things go horribly wrong, though...

Like what? The worst case scenario is it attacks, right? Or...

[ Or it has friends. Or it has freaky mind-bending powers. ]

... How much do we actually know about this thing?

I think the worst case scenario is that is attacks, and it destroys whatever markers we've left for ourselves.

[ Not to be a total downer or anything. ]
ichoosefight: (that was a serious question)

[ Actually now that she's thinking in that direction there are a lot worse ways this can go.

Oh well! They're already here. ]


I still think retreat is our best option. If we have a trail, great, but if not, we still need to stay in a group. The easiest way to manage that is probably to have one person whose job it is to decide it's time to run, and everyone else can stick to them.

Is anyone here likely to actually panic? Gotham's an emergency situation like, once a month, and everyone else seems to have some experience with this kind of thing.

[ See, that's an idea Oscar likes. ]

I think that's our best bet—so long as everyone agrees to follow that person's lead.
ichoosefight: (I can list them)

[ She shrugs. ]

I don't really care one way or the other. Except, I vote it not be Mamika? I figure she's probably a little too invested to make the call to retreat.
