I was just kidding before! I didn't expect REAL prehistoric animals to start showing up! A-Ahem...

*There was some muttering before he spoke up into the walkie-talkie properly*

Is there a place where more people are gathering together to try and keep safe in bigger numbers? If so, I'd appreciate some general directions there because I just spent several hours getting out of a tree and down a small cliff to try and keep out of reach and another two getting back up when things decided I still smelled like prey.

Given that this is supposedly a dream world, this will let up and change eventually right? Dreams, even nightmares... they don't go on forever...

Right?

((I think so? xD;;;))

...It is rather difficult to tell at the moment, I am afraid. The trees all appear rather similar. However, Lady Lyn and I did pass by a river not too long ago, if that assists you?

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

A river?

That may help, but if I traveled along it in the wrong direction... the animals around here are going to be drawn toward a clean water source.

Do you see any other landmarks? What direction is that giant volcano from you right now?

[There is a pause, presumably as he looks.]

It is to the North of our position, I believe.

*He was quiet a long moment, fixing the position of the volcano in his mind, trying to orient himself as to where they could be from him*

Which direction are you traveling along the river and is the volcano close enough for you to see yourself?

[scholastical.livejournal.com]

We are travelling away from the volcano, though yes, it is still quite close.

[A pause again. In reality, he is judging the distance by means of the shadow the volcano casts. Don't judge him. It's a simple mathematical algorithm.]

We are not far from the volcano. We are certainly within five hundred feet of it.

Nn. *Shouichi himself was doing some quick math and distance judging, while looking out toward the volcano*

I'm probably at least a couple hours away from you on foot from here... More actually since the terrain isn't going to be easy to navigate. Do you plan on just maintaining that direction for now and sticking along the river?

There is a friend I'm still waiting to hear back from and he may have found some place safe to stay as well. He certainly isn't in any danger at least, I imagine. But he's apt to just disappear on a whim and meanwhile I'm on my own...

If I don't hear back from him within the next hour or so, I'll set out in your direction.

[scholastical.livejournal.com]

Yes, we will continue along this trajectory. Do feel free to contact me if you need any assistance.

...Oh! My name is Canas.

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

Canas... Alright. I'll be in touch again either way to let you know.

...Thank you. Ah, my name is Shouichi by the way.

[scholastical.livejournal.com]

Very well. It is nice to meet you, Shouichi, though the circumstances could certainly be better.

Do contact me if you have any problems.

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

I definitely will. Thanks.


(( OOC: And he totally would be contacting him again within a short amount of time to let Canas know he found Byakuran and would be alright. Also to wish him well and to be safe too. ))
