Today I don't feel like doing anything. I just wanna lay in my bed.

[lazywater]

WHO: En Yufuin and everyone
WHAT: A furry icicle
WHEN: Day 1
WHERE: Just outside the city
WARNINGS: One lazy asshole discovering the ability Truant

En is very much aware that something is wrong, especially when he wakes up to chilly winds and expanse of white ice instead of white walls and a warm bed, but he's... not exactly sure what to do with this knowledge. Usually, his response to getting kidnapped is screaming and yelling, as most sane people do, but today his body just refuses to move. It's not that it's unusual for him to loaf around, it's just unusual that he's not reacting to something completely different.

He lays on the ice for maybe about ten minutes- during which he only heard his heart beat once per those minutes... was he dead?- before he feels something bubbling in his gut. It's slow to process, but the brown, fuzzy creature sits up and looks at his paws and reflection in the ice. His loveracet was still there... but everything else...

HAGGHHYYYYHHHAAAAAAAAAHHHHH! WHAT IS THIS?

. . . Ah. There it is.

Welp. That's bad... and if nothing is around to burn by nightfall, well...

[It gonna be COLDER]

[thegunsdonothing]

I don't think we're going to be running out of time there-we'd freeze before nightfall at this rate, [she huffs, picking up the pace. There has to be some kind of shelter...]

[lazywater]

Hmmm.... ah... there's a cave ahead. We could try bury ourselves in there.

[thegunsdonothing]

That might work for shelter-no one's burying anyone, [she adds firmly, picking up the pace.]

[lazywater]

I mean the sleepy burying... not the funeral burying.

[thegunsdonothing]

[To that, she wrinkles her nose.] Of course you did.

Listen-you need to rest, but I'm not lying down until I have an idea as to where we are, and what the hell happened; so the statement stands, alright?

[lazywater]

. . . Right. I'll rest and you... make sure you get back safe. I don't think I can crawl on the ice and try find you if something happens.

[Because he is worried and he will look if you go off for too long]

[thegunsdonothing]

[The cave is just ahead; it's a small one, but it's shelter, and she goes in as far as she can before letting the other down.]

It's warmer in here...that's good.

You should be safe then; I'll find something that we can use for fire at the least.

[lazywater]

... I can see some sticks.

[En kind of rolls over and gets them. They look... very odd. All of them look like a child's interpretation of a wand, really.]

Got anything less wet?

[thegunsdonothing]

Sticks?

[Well she's turning back around. ...And frowning.]

...What are sticks like this doing in the middle of a cave...

[lazywater]

Sticks and stones... it's kind of weird.

[He shows a gravelrock to her. It seems more like a baseball than a rock though]

Maybe the cave is a tunnel?

[thegunsdonothing]

A tunnel to where though...

[Not good. Well.] We can't risk going too deep; we'll stay here.

Maybe we can start a fire using these...

[lazywater]

Catch.

[He'll toss a wand at her.]

[thegunsdonothing]

[The branches are caught easily, and with a nod, she gets to work. ] Good thing I went to summer camp as a kid...

There anything else around you?

[lazywater]

[He's surprised no magic bullshit happened. That tends to happen with weird stuff like this.]

....

.......

You're not going to believe if I said I can see an apple down this path, right?

[thegunsdonothing]

[The answer is to slowly look up...

And stare.

Very judgingly.]

[lazywater]

. . .

[he waddles over and then retrieves it, bringing it back to the leader of their duo. Seems like a perfectly normal apple]

. . . So do you want to ask the obvious question? Or should I?

[thegunsdonothing]

[...................]

This is a dream, [She mutters, going back to rubbing sticks furiously against each other.] It's a dream, and I'm going to wake up floating in space, or never wake up at al-

[SfTTt!

And lo, a spark!

A flame!]

[lazywater]

. . . You were in space before? That sounds just as out of this world as this? What were you doing in space?

[En is just gonna hold onto his apple and look around the cave. Gives him the creeps, honestly... He feels like someone is watching him.]

[thegunsdonothing]

[.............] Really?

Being an engineer for space station systems is less believable than this?

[She takes this insult very seriously sir.]

[lazywater]

... You know that sounded weirder before I said that out loud. You made me think you were some kind of alien bounty hunter for some reason.

[thegunsdonothing]

[Amanda actually laughs at that one.] Now that would be unbelievable.

[lazywater]

[En grins and shakes his head. It does sound really, really dumb. He's about to say something when he perks his head up and frowns.]

... Do you hear footsteps?

[thegunsdonothing]

[Footsteps..?

She peers out of the cave, frowning.] ...Wait here, I'll go investigate.

[lazywater]

. . . Right... I'll wait here then... But if there's anything...
