[Someone closer to the road might get to see something small, dark, and fuzzy scrambling up a tree, stuffing a pack into a hollow, and then...being abruptly small, purple, and fuzzy, and the most utterly innocent and oblivious to everything "Rattata" ever seen. LOOK HE'S GOT A BERRY HE'S NOT INVOLVED IN ANYTHING NOPE NO PACK HERE.]

[Meanwhile, a little off the trail, someone is being a complete train wreck in the woods, attempting to give pursuit, and close enough to be heard swearing under his breath, tripping over undergrowth, and generally being someone who should never be allowed in deep woods alone. Or moderate woods. Or off the trail in woods. He also seems to be going parallel to the trail.]

Oh yes, very funny, just up and vanish with everything, bushy-tailed little...

[And then, in a much more chipper, cheerful, and oozing friendly tone...] Why, those are some of the most amazing fruit I've seen yet in this land! Too bad there's none here to share them with...

[father_of_the_year]

[There is an equally friendly response to that statement.]

But how do you know that they're safe to eat?

[Hey, you can't argue that he has a point.]

[humble_scholar]

[Of course, not only does the bramble bush not have a single berry on it, but it seems to've attempted to maul him somewhere around tripping over a root and faceplanting... but he's hoping the Zorua doesn't know that.]

Well, I had considered that, but if there were some convenient helpful local wildlife about that might know, I'm sure we could find out.

[Thank you, convenient stranger, for running with the ruse and hopefully helping lure his supposed partner out of hiding!]


[And that's a tiny, stifled noise from a not!Rattata in a tree fighting not to laugh.]

[father_of_the_year]

[And there's a smile.]

It's too bad that I'm not from around here - I guess we'll have to rely on the good will of something that decides to come and take pity on us.

[He shrugs, before slowly making his way over toward the brambles the stranger seems to've landed himself. Might as well make sure that he didn't twist an ankle or something in all that.]

[humble_scholar]

[He's working on righting himself, at least, and picking at burrs in his hair - scratched to hell and back but it's far from the worst he's lived through.]

We can certainly hope there is such a kind soul about. [He's a little attention split between someone close by, dusting off, and ... trying to pin down where the sound came from.] You wouldn't happen to have seen my pack anywhere, would you? I seem to have misplaced it somehow.

[father_of_the_year]

[Maes gives a shrug.]

I wish I could help, but I haven't seen it anywhere. We could always partner up if you don't find it, though.
