"Mark- Mark are you here?" she said with urgency, shouting to be heard over the storm. @The Stormfather Chaos wreaked havoc in the jungle, and her skeleton was shaken to the core in the cold as she sat there under the roots, mind rushing with thoughts of danger. I do hope Dougella is taking shelter in this painful wave of storm. This too, will pass. This too, will pass. She was always told this. But it never passed. Her dad never stopped. Her life never made sense. The gambling never ended. This life- this disaster- never passed. 2

His body flails in the air as the cold bites into his skin. A flash of lightning reveals his makeshift bowl flying up and away into the air. Quelkin grunts as he pulls himself closer to the tree. A trail of light appears and flies toward him. "I could use some help" Quelkin grunts. "Why don't you just pull in stormlight from the storm", Nacho replies as he shifts into a little man with two wicked katanas, "The storm is extremely invested."

He also seems much warmer than he should be, and stays completely dry inside the coat. Gavin glared back. “N-no,” he said in English. “I-I-I—I’m n-n-not y-yours t-to c-c-control.” Stars, he hated that stutter. It made it impossible to argue. “Th-this is m-m-m-more i-important.” He just looks at him for a moment before sighing and speaking in English. “You disappoint me more everyday.” But he didn’t push him any further, he simply sat down at the desk at the sound of the tributes voice. 4 minutes ago, The Bookwyrm said: Tinker glanced at the wool blanket on the dirty ground.
