Sixth Howl - [Voice/Action]

[runninghowling]

((Forward dated to about eight/nine-ish in the morning, aka some saner hour))

[Toboe has been returned. Anyone up early enough will see a very battered looking boy trudging into the village from the direction of the mountains. He's exhausted, he's hurt, and the rain is not helping matters any. One bruised and cut up hand is holding an open journal

[lilblackfeather]

Unyo...

Toboe, are you okay?

Voice

[runninghowling]

...Huh? Oh... Cooro?

Voice

[lilblackfeather]

Uh huh. It's me. Where are you?

Voice

[runninghowling]

Somewhere on the plains... I'm coming back to the village now.

[one_green_eye]

[Well, if he's coming from the direction of the mountains-- he might cross paths with Ginko in the plains. Who will probably hear his voice over the journal and start looking around, on the chance.]

[ action ]

[runninghowling]

[Depending on what Ginko is seeing at the moment, have a battered boy or wolf passing through a slight distance away.]

[ action ]

[one_green_eye]

[he sees the wolf now-- but "battered" is the detail that registers. He hurries towards him-

Oi! Toboe...

[ action ]

[runninghowling]

[Glances over, what are you doing out in the rain Ginko?] Ginko...

[Will muster up a few wags of the tail for you.]

[kickinabout]

Toboe! Are you all right?

[voice]

[runninghowling]

...Lilynette...?

[voice]

[kickinabout]

Yeah. Where are you?

[voice]

[runninghowling]

In the plains I think... I came from the mountains...

[sortabeautiful]

[He knows that voice. Oh dear.] Toboe? Where are you?

[runninghowling]

[It takes him awhile to recognise the voice.] Jacob...? I'm in the plains... I think.
