(of course :))

Pine started to smile. "Then we can go buy books if you need to take a break."
"This is Ursule," Victor said. "And Charming and Panic." He stopped. "You're still coming, right?"

"Hello." Ursule returned the greeting, rolling her eyes internally. Oh great, another pissy princess to deal with when I could be fighting people and using magic.

Lotus began to formulate a plan in her head so she could get a break before having to keep her illusion up for the remainder of the ride, "Of course. Should we go now or later?"

"I figured I was, but if you don't want me to.." She trailed off, her eyes cold as she glanced at Ursule while the rest of her face made her seem soft and friendly. She clasped her hands behind her back and felt them grow slightly colder, breathing out slowly so that she didn't start freezing the ground.

"Quite the family." Catori said, smiling brightly.
((hhmmm

(Idk how to make kamryn relevant to this rp… she more like a background character at this moment)

(Maybe you could have her talk to Prince Kai since @42 just came back?)

Damian let the conversation lapse into silence. He looked around them, taking in the scenery for the first time beyond the city walls on his own. The grassy plains gave way to a forest just up ahead. If they could manage to get through without getting lost or interrupted, he would be set.

However, creeping doubt sunk into the prince’s mind. He was an avid reader and grew up on the stories of beasts and demons lurking just beyond the trails. It was foolish of him to hold any fear, but the lingering what if’s made him pale a little as they drew ever closer to the looming pines.

Catori grew excited at the sight of the forest, and her fingers tapped quickly as she leaned forward a bit to look. Memories flashed through her mind of days as a child, spent racing through the forest with her brothers, and she smiled.

“You seem excited.” Without thinking, Damian’s gaze had settled on Catori once again.

"The woods carry good memories with them." She looked over at him, her smile turning a bit worried. "Your posture indicates some anxiety. What's wrong?"

“I…” Damian decided to tell the truth this time. “I suppose I haven’t been in the woods in a long time. I may have been letting my imagination get the best of me. Which is foolish, I know. I can talk to the animals.” He looked away, his face turning red with embarrassment.

"Take comfort in knowing you're the most dangerous thing in there." Catori said, looking back towards the forest. "Plus, if it's comforting, you have me on your side as well."

Damian stared at the woods for a moment before nodding. “It can be challenging.” He admitted, quietly. “It’s a lot of voices all at once.”

"Oh?" She looked back over at him, curious.

“Uh, yeah. Sometimes.” Damian stroked Quintus’s mane. “It’s like being in the marketplace, with everyone yelling everywhere.”

"Hhmm." Catori fiddled with a sprig of Rue. "I've always found with places like the market places, it's best to focus on one thing at a time, or it can be overwhelming. It's, uh, probably not that helpful…"

“Would you mind talking to me?” Damian asked, a bit reluctant. He wasn’t a fan of asking for help at all, but he also was a bit intimdayed by the task ahead.

"I would love to." Catori smiled, holding the herb up to look at it in the sun. "They say Rue protects against the evil eye, and I've heard of it being a good herb to bring on travels. Although, Comfrey root is more commonly known for that."

Damian smiled softly. “Good to know I have protection.” He lead Quintus closer to Asterin and Catori.

Catori bit her lip, gaze warm when she looked over at him. She held out the sprig. "Take it. I have plenty of protection to spare."

Damian felt, for the third time that day, a warm buzzing sensation spread through his veins. An unfortunate occurance which allowed a slight mishap. As soon as Damian grasped the rue spring, it began to blossom and grow several more leaves.

Catori's eyes widened, and she leaned down a bit to look closer. "Oh my. You can make them grow!"
((I cannot word, please excuse any odd looking sentences. My brain functions disappeared

((Hey guys I’m back sorry))

Kai has been watching everything unfold from the steps of the place he had seen his brothers leave not caring enough to say goodbye he’d seen a princess go and come, and then another one came. He took a deep breath in and headed towards the new girl.
