(Hahaha!)
As MushBall slowly retook his form, he felt a very strange shape on top of him. He seemed to have put on weight. “Oh dear.” He thought. “I really hope I am maintaining my beautiful slim physique.”
Finding that his extra mass was after all simply the of the God of Food incarnate came as a great relief.
After sorting out what it was that happened, MushBall thanked Resuso (or seemed too, but it couldn’t be said for sure.) for having been so hospitable.
Seeing that his silver tooth was still around safely in place, as was his feather, he proceeded to fall into conversation with Resuso.
“Pink people sound really very terrible. What a very unstylish thing to be pink, and to disrespect the gods- not socially acceptable in the least, if you ask me. Someone should really teach them a lesson.”
Thinking the forest sounded very nice, and hearing that that is where his friend had set off to, he decided that was where he would go, and bidding farewell to the god, he went into a fast paced walk, hoping to catch up to her in as short a time as was fashionable.

I look around and across the underground river.
I shiver from the wind created by the rushing water and the thought of swimming.
I see the rope and follow it with my eyes across the river and see the tunnel continue.
I growl a little upset at having to get wet.
I grab onto the rope with one hand and jump in and easily pull myself across

(For Schme and El_Skwidd)
As MushBall ran into the woods, Resuso uncoiled and disappeared into the plants. Once again the groff-fields fell into relative silence, the only sound being that of the cricket-things.
MushBall had made considerable progress, but had not caught up to Kitty yet. Presently, he came upon Vex/Xev on the path ahead of him.
(Here, as usual, you may decide whether you want to slow down and talk to Vex/Xev, or continue running.)
(For Snake_byte)
Beelzebub continued down the wider tunnel. Presently, it dipped suddenly and continued at a much steeper decline. A faint yellowish glow could be seen flickering up ahead.

Erake continued to follow down the corridor after Beelzebub, keeping as quiet as she could. Growing bored with just following him, she decided to have a bit of fun, and blew softly on his neck.
Awkward: Having your phone go off full volume during a funeral.
Even more awkward: Your ringtone being "I Will Survive"
The most awkward: Coming back after a 10+ year hiatus and swearing I'd never come back. :twisted:

I notice a faint light and decide to proceed quietly and cautiously.
I slowly walk down the steep incline keeping my eyes and ears open at all times.
Then a feel a concentrated breeze of warm air on my neckand look over my shoulder quickly. I don't see anything but scan behind me for a little while and then shrug it off and continue.

Audirda picks up the orb artifact and swims to the center of the garden and looks around for Deitris or Nioss to see if they know what it is. While she waits, she gathers some seaweed and weaves a net to carry the artifact. However, she doesn't like that she'd have to still hold the net with her hands and weaves a strap that she attaches to the net and places the artifact in the net and slings the strap over her shoulder and across her torso.

Ao rumbles good-naturedly and nods to both Tek and Briker. He then speaks to Kikkik.
"Please let them know that I understand them... and if you could, teach me the secrets of mind-speak as well. Then, once I can speak freely, I would like to ask you more questions about this place and all the strange creatures and things that I see."

(Global Statement)
The sun had now reached the highest point in the sky, marking midday. A few wispy clouds scattered about the sky, but it was mostly clear.
(For Nixit, AoM, and Razorlance)
Kikkik gave Ao the same crash course in mind-speak he had given the other two.
“Well, there we have it, now all three of you can mind-speak. I expect you’ll all be regular chatterboxes.”
Kikkik turned to Ao, though speaking such that the others could hear him. “I’m afraid my knowledge of surface things is somewhat limited. I am not a god you see, just one of her messengers. But I would be happy to try to answer your questions! And if you want to meet the god, I can take you to her. It is a long way though, and there are many perils on the way. Naturally all three of you are welcome to come along, but for those of you who have not had your fates read yet, I would recommend you go get those before we leave.”
(For Snake_byte and 3shyof30rats)
As Snake_byte cautiously advanced, he came to see what was creating the light. A little frosted-glass lamp hung from the cavern wall. Etched into the glass were letters of some unknown language, like the etchings on the little box that had hung on the now-felled bonsai tree. Flames flickered inside the lamp. It was much brighter here than it had been even in the Tagus cave. The corridor ended here, where a large, seemingly immovable rock blocked the way. A crude picture had been scratched on the surface of the rock. It had a strange likeness to Beelzebub’s form but had a large X through it.
Presently, Beelzebub could hear the echoed sound of mocking laughter. He could not tell where it came from, for it seemed to come at him from every direction. The lamp seemed to flicker more rapidly now in time with the laughter.

Davrim slowly caught up with Audirda, after having weaved his way through the beautiful garden. The form of Dietris presently emerged from the distant dark waters, with the bashful Nioss in tow.
“You have come back, daughter of the sea. Nioss missed you.” Dietris cast a warm glance upon Nioss, then slowly turned body so that her left eye could see Davrim clearly. “Yes, Davrim, son of the sea, my husband Urdast told me you would be coming. Sorry that I could not escort you personally, but Audirda seems to have done a fine job. Welcome!”
Dietris eyed Audirda. “That is an interesting artefact you have found there. Would you hold it close to my eye, dear, so that I might examine it?”

When I first make it to the end I inspect the lamp and it's letters not understanding them. I move my gaze to the boulder and look at the picture.
When the laughter begins I look all around to see where it's coming from. Suddenly I recognize the laughter and look at the rock again. "show yourself little one" I smirk.

In his haste, MushBall almost ran over the Vex and Xev. Seeing the turtle like creature, he slowed down to it’s pace, so as to talk to it.
“Why hello and greetings. Have we met? If not, I’m sure you know me anyhow. I’m very well known, as you well know. A pleasure to make your acquaintance, my friends. Might I inquire as to where you are headed on this fine day? Off on an exploration expedition, are you?”
He then went on to say (sort of) “You wouldn’t have happened to see a blue furry creature go by here, would you?”

The laughter stopped, and the lamp began to rock back and forth. Moments later, the laughter erupted again, this time sounding much more distant, and clearly coming from behind Beelzebub, back in the tunnel from where he had come.
(Schme, I will let El_Skwidd reply to you before I continue with yours)

Forgetting she had even tried to be invisible, she started looking around for the creature that was making this...hideous noise. She still stood behind Beelzebub, but she finally reappeared, and was unaware of it.
