"If ye can't even take ye job application seriously, how do ye expect t' capn' to take it seriously?  Yarr harr harr indeed.  Decision ain't up t' me though.  I'm just here 'n case it gets messy.  By the way, I be Lalasa the pirrate diplomat, and this here bird be Charles.  Say 'ahoy' to the carp'nter Charrles."

((Nooo, binoculars D:))

With her arm continuing to bleed, Annie could feel the vexation building up within her that she was unable to do even a simple thing such as rip a piece of shirt.  Even her binoculars were gone now, and they were handy too.  If only she had something sharp... anything at all.  Pointy objects would help her gut her fish too, but of course it was difficult to find anything in this damn bug-infested jungle.

"Ah... they're gone.  I wish I wasn't alone anymore... why did I come here?" she whispers, beginning to cry a little.  She couldn't feel the tears much anyway- her entire face was wt from the rain and the lake.

Annie tries to tear off her shirt again and apply it to her wound.  Leaving her arm continuously bleeding was the worst possible idea at the moment.

"..."

Lilia allows the question hang in the air as she waits in quiet agreement.  She may not have had any seeing powers herself, but this "block" or whatever it was felt even creepier than the mansion somehow.  Brushing her hands lightly over its strangely artificial surface, a shiver curls down her spine.  This fact seems to hush her further, and she retreats into dark and gloomy thoughts about what could cause such a forbidding feeling.

As she broods, Lilia also looks around the complex to see if there even is a way into it.

Relief flushed Lilia's face, and she quickly grew quiet again.  It's not her style to talk all that much, so she was glad Joy accepted right away.

Lilia begins heading over to that odd gray complex, expectant of Joy to come too.

"Fine.  Done?" Lilia grunts, making a mental note not to tell anyone if she thinks of something important.  No need to bring group members with parasites hugging their jaws rushing over and attracting anything of the sort this lady was blabbing about.  Besides, even if it was magic, seeing dead people everywhere is weird.  Eech!  Definitely someone Lilia wouldn't want to have contact with.

What am I doing?  Yelling to a wall... yeah.  I think that guy's been rubbing off on me.  I should really get a grip.
Lilia backs away from the wall for a moment and notices that she was being approached.  Whoever it was probably is going to complain about her not incredibly helpful tactics. 

Instead she gets a completely different question, and one Lilia couldn't even answer or even wanted to.  Apparently no one here has heard of people going solo, or at least trying to think away from the hustle and bustle of people. 

"What business?  If you're talking about 'Shaky', you'd be better off asking the King of Molemen, or at least trying to, considering his babbling is barely discernible.  I didn't see the thing at all.  What do you want?" she answers defensively, immediately putting up a guard. 

She then turns around (Tact?  What's that?) and continues pondering the issue with the wall.  If she could find a way above or through it...   Harvey's digging would actually come in handy here if he could shovel beneath it... although that wasn't terribly sneaky.

i only read this and likot soapeater because i like the publishers and they are interesting stories.  if i may suggest, i love when main character gets a pet.

Dumplin already has a pet silly, we all saw how attached she is to that kobold. 
But in all seriousness I doubt she's in much of a position to be focusing on a pet right now.
