Eying the woodlands for any openings of an obvious path, the now sober Karl continued to watch the background for anymore 'surprises' after the cliff incident. Speaking of surprise, the spider that he had drugged shouldn't be waking up for a long time until daybreak. With a frustated squint, he opted to keep searching for any way out than to stay and hide if it meant meeting another Ushi-oni or worse.

"My Karl, can you please let me go so I don't have to keep feeling sick around your arm?" Faye griped at him, annoyed at how she was still being manhandled.

He looked at her and gave another sigh before releasing the doll from his arm-lock and putting her on his right shoulder. "Fine. Just be glad I'm not shoving you back in the backpack. I already had enough bitching for one day."

"Why, thank you, dear." She flashed him a dainty smile as she patted his cheek once. "I'll be on my best behavior, of course."

"Don't do anything strange to me, for starters." The charcoal skinned man muttered. "And stop treating this as if we are married. We're not. Don't even bother charming me, too. It may work on other men, but I ain't like them for your information."

"Pah, you're no fun."

"Fun would be the times before I was cursed."

He then heard the sound of ceremic clinking right next to his ear and from the corner of his eye, saw her setting down a small tea cup on a platter she was holding.

"Wait, how did you...? Actually, never mind."
