What:

[ Who's up for some fun times in nature? ]

[ Oh, and if you're up and out early enough, you may just catch sight of a Lizagon making its way down the big hallway toward the wider open area. A big Lizagon- easily larger than the other ones loitering around this hallway. Its scales have also started changing to a bright, ruby red color, the older green ones shedding off as it walks. ]

[ It doesn't seem to notice you as it passes- it doesn't seem to be stopping for anything in fact. Do you dare follow it? Or are you lucky enough to have decided to go hunting after it passes? ]

See what? [Snaps his attention back up. Red you are like a raving madman right now--grabbing for the back of his shirt.] Slow down!

[anopenbook]

[turns and smacks Kanda away]

I haven't seen the sky IN A YEAR, Kanda Yuu.

[outofthemud]

[Smacked! Frowns up at (with a twinge of confusion).] And why not?

[anopenbook]

[I AM TRYING TO CLIMB AGAIN]

I sold my memories for a chance. To get a wish. To escape the Noah--they took me. I wasn't sure I would survive.

I could be taken away, would have the chance to win my memories back, and win a wish.

So I went. But...it was a cave. I was trapped for all that time.

I want to see it. I died without ever seeing the real sky again.

But it is SO CLOSE now I HAVE TO...

[outofthemud]

[... Sighs, stepping back and folding his arms.]

I'm not saving you if you fall from being reckless.

[I AM CLIMBING THIS TREE

FORGET YOU MR STOIC]

[outofthemud]

[YEAH YEAH GO HAVE YOUR FUN.

Leans back against the vine wall and watches, waiting for him to get it out of his system.]

[fuckingnature]

[ It's a long and dizzying climb up- the branches go everywhere, but if you keep switching, you can keep going higher and higher, up into the canopies. You pass by wildlife on the way there, but it's all just a blur of colors that fades away when you make your way up one of the trees that towers over the average canopy- tall enough to receive the full light of the sun. ]

[ The view is the tops of trees- as far as you can see in any direction, but the sky overhead is a beautiful clear blue. ]

[anopenbook]

[And Red could die happy now because for the first time in a long time he feels actually free again.]

Oh...

I forgot how big a sky is.

[outofthemud]

[Please don't he doesn't want to have to explain that to everyone else.

Looks up the direction of his voice.] See anything else up there?

[anopenbook]

Trees everywhere. And sky.

And sun. And its really WARM and I can feel a BREEZE and I'm never ever coming down again.

[outofthemud]

[... He is on such a high. Grunts and moves from the wall to get back over and start climbing up the trees as well.]

[fuckingnature]

[ Such a high up romantic view of rainforest forever. ]

[anopenbook]

[Red is perched happily, staring at the sky, taking deep breaths and wiping the wetness from his face. Being in the sun makes how pale his time in the dark has left him.

He will likely fry upon extended time in the sun

WHO CARES]

Do you think we could live out here? Up here?

[outofthemud]

[Kanda's usually pale, but Lavi's probably making him look tan in comparison. And it's very noticeable out here.

Pops up beside him, taking his own look around.] Without getting killed?

[Kanda'd rather keep his apartment in the building for living purposes. And the ground looks totally flooded.]

[anopenbook]

Don't go all practical on me, Yuu.

[wipes at his eye again hard]

Let me feel like I can do anything for a minute.

[outofthemud]

[Your feelings are making this awkward...

Rolls his eyes and turns his attention elsewhere, then.]

[anopenbook]

[will sit here quietly--well that part must be nice at least!!!--for a good long while

and will remain so until Kanda bugs him again]

[fuckingnature]

[ Kanda and Rabi may both want to turn their attention to the fact that the sun is slowly getting blocked out by something drifting by overhead... ]

[anopenbook]

Eh?!

[outofthemud]

[Eventually it's obvious that he's gleaned all he can from this location, and gives Lavi's shoulder a light shove.]

If we're going to be out here we might as well see if--[They can get very far, but the sudden growing darkness cuts him off and he looks up at the sun.

Uses the branches around to get to his feet again and try and see what that is.]

[fuckingnature]

[ All you can really see is a black outline, but it has two great wings, spread out as it glides overhead, and its body is almost serpent-like, stretching along for a long ways. ]

[ It's also easily larger than a jumbo jet so that is a lot of sky it's covering. ]

[anopenbook]

Oh wow. . .

[outofthemud]

[Squints a little as he watches it, though he can't make out a species is resembles aside from being reptilian.]

[fuckingnature]

[ It continues to drift by, but if you keep watching you'll notice two or three much smaller things break off of it and begin falling down toward the tree tops. ]

[ Or is that flying down? ]
