...Do you speak bug?

[Fact: at no point has it been confirmed or even stated that this guy does not speak bug.

It is entirely possible that among his many other talents, he is apparently the bug whisperer.]

[nullorvoid]

[You know, he speaks a lot of things by necessity but bug isn't one of them, you're thinking of the wrong interdimensional rift entirely WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU.]

If I could, this wouldn't be a problem!

[idolwild]

[The hilarious thing is, all this shouting is probably going to scare off the Heracross as it is, all on its own.]

Well, hurry up and make it go away!

[nullorvoid]

[Seriously, it's just going to decide that these are not people it wants to be friends with.

...The bug is the smartest one here, let's be honest with ourselves.]

What, exactly, do you expect me to do? Fistfight it?!

[idolwild]

[When a five-foot bug is mortified to be seen with you, you know you have done fucked up.]

I don't know! Just get rid of — eh?

[...]

...Where'd it go?

[nullorvoid]

[...Oh.]

...Wherever huge bugs like that go in the woods.

You still want to go running off the path like you were earlier?

[idolwild]

Hmph!

[But apparently she doesn't actually have a response to that, given that GIANT BUG O'CLOCK has pretty much convinced her that maybe staying on the path is a good idea from here on out.

And also that Harada is not actually in these woods.]

...So what do we do now? Are you gonna call somebody?

[nullorvoid]

"Call somebody."

[The flattest response in the world, Mayu. Call somebody like...who, exactly?]

[idolwild]

Call somebody!

[Is there an echo in these woods?]

To...come help us...?

[nullorvoid]

Right, because of course I wouldn't have done that already if I thought it would work!

[idolwild]

Well, what are we supposed to do then?! I don't see you coming up with any ideas!

[nullorvoid]

"We"...?

[Never mind that is exactly what he has been implying this whole time, that was absolutely not what he was implying.]

[idolwild]

You can't just strand a defenseless girl alone in the woods!

[nullorvoid]

Well, come on, then, and don't just go sprinting off the path unless you know what you're doing.

I'm not sure where we're supposed to go, but it'll beat standing around here.

[idolwild]

O-Okay.

[Properly cowed, then, she'll just trot along with him, casting apprehensive glances toward the trees and their possibility for huge bugs.]

Um...do you think there's a town somewhere?

[nullorvoid]

I'm not sure what we're supposed to do about it if there isn't.

[This is such a shitshow.]

We'll figure out what's going on.

[idolwild]

I don't want to be lost in the woods...

[Which, in fairness, seems to be more of an expression of uncertainty and dejection than any sort of literal objection.]

I hope we figure it out soon.
