[Seventeen - Right Through The Eye]

[the_effect_she_has]

[There's the sound of rustling, cloth and wrapped food stuffed into her satchel bag. Katniss starts to speak, as she continued to put things together.] Hey there, Paradisa - or whatever we happen to be now. It's prime time for me to go trekking through the woods for supplies, so I'm going to spend a few days gathering. Anything anyone wants to add to the shopping list, let me know now.

Anyone who wants a rough and tumble walking tour, let me know as well.

Private to Mildmay

Want to get your first lesson in survival?

Private to Dairine

Need help with something, Dar. You have the time from your books?

Private to Gale

Mind the store for me, while I'm gone. And mind yourself, Hawthorne.

Comments

[unvarnished]

Don't need a tour, but I'd still like to take a look around.

Katniss

[wizard_redfive]

Sure, Kat. What is it?

Catnip

[fanstheflame]

The range, I've got no problem minding. Myself might be another story. ... Mostly because I'm feeling a little left out, here.

... If you find any good clusters of bittersweet vine, let me know? I need them for bindings on the fence.

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Hey, Katniss-san. Need some help?

Dari

[the_effect_she_has]

I need to see if you can get someone's sensors to work in the Dead Zone.

[the_effect_she_has]

Well, if you're coming, better pack a bag August.

Hawthorne

[the_effect_she_has]

I'm not trying to leave you out, Gale, but I'm planning on being gone for a few days, and I'm looking to get myself into a little trouble by doing some answer gathering.

I didn't want to put you in danger, because of me. [Again.]

[the_effect_she_has]

Well, you up for some rough living, Chie? It'll be out in the open and all.

[unvarnished]

Will do. [you can almost hear the smile in his voice]

[pint_sized_carnivore]

How long would that take?

Katniss

[wizard_redfive]

[There's a pause. Dairine generally avoids the Dead Zone; she doesn't like it much. It'd take a very good reason to get her to go there.]

What, like technological sensors?

[the_effect_she_has]

[She grinned in turn, before clearing her throat.] Remember, bring a weapon. There are direwolves in the forest.

Dairine

[the_effect_she_has]

Yeah. So he could give us images of where our enemies are, outside of the realm of Castle Demented.

[the_effect_she_has]

A few days. I need to make sure the herbs get back to the clinic for medicines and the like.

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Oh, that's too bad. I still have to help at the magic shop in town.

Maybe I can help you carry things when you get back?

[unvarnished]

I've got one. [the tone is more serious]

[the_effect_she_has]

I'd really appreciate that, Chie. Is there anything you want me to look for, for the shop? Hermione led me to believe some magic takes herbs.

[the_effect_she_has]

...A weapon or a direwolf?

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Uhm, I think we're good! Can I still reach you with the journal where you're headed?

[unvarnished]

[that actually makes him laugh] I wouldn't know what to do with a direwolf.

katniss.

[kethedammit]

I ain't septad and six no more, but I could probably use the learning all the same.

[the_effect_she_has]

Most people don't know what to do with a direwolf. [She snorted softly.]

Mildway

[the_effect_she_has]

Well, well, welcome back Red. [She smirked faintly.] Come on out, then. You're never too old to learn new tricks.

[the_effect_she_has]

I never go anywhere without it. [For good reason. It was the only way to get any information anywhere quickly.]

[unvarnished]

[oh Katniss you're so cute. August is on his way but he can talk to her at the same time]

Have you explored all the woods yet?
