Bear!? Bear! There was a bear in the bath!

( So comes this startled and startling shout, as elsewhere in camp, Wei Wuxian is (unfortunately) streaking past in damp, confused glory, a bear of arctic composure lumbering after him, soap bar still in mouth. Come back! He was just handing the soap over, he wanted to help! )

Comments

[rumorate]

Yeah, that I get. My brother could talk to ghosts too.

[And then, as an afterthought.]

Not Five. Different brother.

[But she thinks she hears his voice getting closer and she pokes her head out to try and find him.]

[weifinder]

( she will see him streak past, sparrows ... flying around his hips, keeping him... decent... and a polar bear like creature lumbering after him. the bear will wave to her if he sees her looking. )

I got that impression! Five isn't a very spiritual guy!

[rumorate]

... Neither is Klaus, honestly. He's just unlucky.

[And she will ... wave back to the bear, because she's not rude. At the same time, however...]

I don't think the bear is trying to eat you.

[weifinder]

So why! Does the bear! Keep chasing?!

[rumorate]

Because you keep running? Maybe he just wants to talk to you.

[She doesn't know but she's going to head after them and see if she can slow things down.]

Hey! Mr. Bear? Everything okay?

[She's just going to try and talk to the bear, I'm sure this'll be fine.]

[weifinder]

( The bear, still with soap in its mouth and on an unaccountable Mission concerning Wei Wuxian, simply lumbers on, only a flick of one round ear indicating it'd heard Allison.

... Wei Wuxian's still running, so both of them are hauling northward toward the far end of camp like their own circus act. )

I'm not stopping!

[rumorate]

Then he's going to keep chasing you!

[Allison's just going to trail along behind, kind of wanting to see how this ends, for better or worse.]

[weifinder]

( she's not wrong--he is indeed chased until his swallow-covered assets reaches Su Xunxian's tent, where the man himself waylays the bear with apparent conversation, and Wei Wuxian ducks behind another tent to watch (and comment) until he's given the notification of safety, and retreats to a blanket.

SO ENDS THE BEAR CHASE, and Su Xunxian will definitely let Allison know the bear he is now petting on the stomach is indeed a bear with a weird... fixation... on Wei Wuxian, but who is now ready for pets. )

[rumorate]

[All's well that ends well. At least the bear got some good pets out of the deal. But since everything seems okay, she'll retreat back to her tent and leave it at that.]
