[u][i][b]Caterpillar Grotto[/b][/i][/u] His question answered as best it could have been, Cronic turned to gaze over at the new arrivals, before someone dropped an F-bomb. Gripping his forehead in annoyance, he then turned to look at Jacob. [b]"Do make an effort to hold off on the swearing please. There are those here who don't need to become renegades like you."[/b] Cronic said to Jacob, before diving into the pond. [b]"...What have I gotten myself into this time?"[/b] Mark said to himself, having listened to everything the Caterpillar explained, prior to taking a deep breath and regaining his composure. [b]"Well. We're going to have to make this count then, aren't we? I can't say for certain how much help I'll be in a fight, but I'm more of a thinker than a doer."[/b] Mark said, following after Cronic back to the sanctuary. ------------- [b][i][u]Hatter's Sanctuary[/u][/i][/b] [color=0072bc][b]"...So we only have four days in this world before doomsday hits. That's a very strict timeframe... And a lot of pressure."[/b][/color] Cronic said, having listened to the exchange... And he wasn't happy about what he was hearing.

I'm a Psychologist afterall."[/b] Mark said, interjecting before anyone else had time to speak, and now that it was safe to do so, crushed the orb in his hand, forming a bow and quiver, full of arrows in his hands. [b]"...Oh geez... I guess it's a bad time to mention I've not practiced archery in years."[/b]
