Character:Guadalupe Score: 1 (No more rolls) Response: "Well, obviously. I don't see any wings on ya unless you got some sort of hidden wings underneath all that....nothin'." he waved his hand, gesturing to Cian's whole body. He was no fool. But--what did flying have to do with anything? It was easy as one, two three. One, open up the cage. Two, get to another cage, three, set that nightmare free. Primarily, set him free. He needed to see his Mao. The poor fool couldn't survive by himself!
Wait. He was pointing down. Guadalupe's eyes went downward to stare at the ground..and gulped. Oh. That's what he meant. He couldn't see the forest floor either. He wasn't afraid of heights at all but that was...a pretty far way down. He let out a low whistle. "Alright. You right. You sure that we can't use those branches?" He asked desperately. There had to be some way to get out of here. "D--Do ya got any ideas how to get out of this place?" Guadalupe laughed, but it was void of emotion, void of anything. They really were ******** here. "Ya think that there's an opening at the top?!" And even then, what would they do?!
Ugh. "We're really in a pickle, aren't we. What's your name anyway, pal?" he looked over towards the hallowed grimm, giving him a considerate look. "That's not a dead body in there with you, right?!" [wc: 232]
Character:Sierra Current Score: 0 Response: Sirrea had been laying in her cage, listening to the noises going on about her, identifying voices nd noting the panic rising. She needed to do something but what…...she’d been thinking for some time when the idea came to her. When she was small, and in the academy her favorite time was the song circle…...and even today when she meditated she’d softly hum a few bars of whatever song happened to be on her mind……………..she hated to singin front of others……………………...but at this point, she needed it for herself. SO she sat up suddenly, trying to ignore the way it made her cage swing and assumed her meditation pose. ANd softly she began to sing the first song that came to her mind.
((Something like True Colors easily recognizable, and cacalming.))
and as she sang her voice gained strength....she hoped someone would join in soon.............
Character:Cian Points: 3 [3 /3 rolls] Rp Response: Cian lifted a white brow at the nixie's response to his obvious statements. He waited in silence, an amused glint to his golden eyes. It wasn't that he didn't understand the panic and eagerness to escape. He did. His tail flicked and lashed behind him in his unease, the smoky tendrils around him flaring now and then. The bird was making a mess by this point, bits of wood being pulled off the bars and shavings from its claws piling up on the floor. It at least had no qualms about potentially falling, he noted with a snort.
Looking back to the nixie, he noticed the moment the kid realized the circumstances, and a corner of his mouth began to twitch up somewhat. "Not sure the branches will hold up any weight," he stated calmly. "Right now? I'm not certain. The best bet seems to be to wait, see if our captors come back for us." His face darkened as he scowled, no more pleased by the idea than anyone else likely was. "If we can see how they approach, we can get a better idea of how to escape." Assuming people came back. If not...
His claws bit into the wooden bars and he eyed them. He could cut himself out a hole, and see if he could climb up onto the top of the cage. See if the rope holding it was possible to climb up, go from there...
But the kid was right. Even if they got everyone out onto the branches holding their cages up. Then what? How would they climb down? Cian had his claws, he could dig into the trunks. Arguably, he could cut out foot and handholds for others...
"Cian," he responded simply, looking back to the nixie. "Yourself?" The uneasy look got a confused one from the hallowed grimm before he looked down at the long-tailed hawk of sorts with him. "Ah, no, just a bird that began to follow me here. Had the misfortune of getting caught with me."
It wasn't his imagination how the bird paused its work and glared up at him.

Character name: Oìche rp response: “A lot of people definitely aren’t handling this well” then again most people didn’t believe in ghosts so if they thought this was the end, she could see where this would lead to panic. Still panicking wouldn’t get them anywhere. “I’m not sure over the panicking people can hear you” oíche could have also sworn she heard singing but she had other concerns at the moment. She didn’t have her disenfecgibe any more and hadn’t Troy got hurt again. She didn’t want him ripping his shirt again so she took part of her over coat and ripped it. Troy was close enough she could hand it over. “Here so you don’t end up wearing a halter.” She replied reaching out with the makeshift bandage.” Now to help other captees. Troy was handling their expedition leader. Hopefully he could help pull them together so that they could step up and calm the others. “I now it’s depressing that we’re all caught but all of us are still alive. You have to pull it together and calm others down. Panicking won’t help us at all when our captors come back. We’ll get out of this okay” oíche replied a bit more harshly then she probably should have, but she had a migraine... now was there another person she could try to calm down.
Character: Alice Current Score: Not Rolling Response:
Alice held tight against the wooden bars, her eyed practically sealed shut. Having a full blown panic attack over her current situation she was positive she was now going crazy. Echoes of faint chatter and screams filled the air around her but were dismissed as spirits if not her hallucinating in her final hours. While this was a bit dramatic considering she was nowhere near death, to her it felt very much like dying.
She stirred for a moment as she thought she heard a faint melody, starting softly then getting louder. Wait a minute she knew that song. Alice opened her eyes, still clenching the side of her prison and looked in the direction of tune. To her shock she saw all the expedition members in similar cages. All in various levels of coping with the situation. They were all.. captured?
Still shaking she turned a bit farther to see the nightmare in the cage behind her was the source of the music. Though she still felt as if she was coming unglued...it did help some. At least she wasn't alone. She closed her eyed again and listened, trying to slow her breathing.
This is fine... its fine...everything is okay...everything is....really NOT fine

Character name:Devon Points: 0 (Out of rolls for the day) RP response: Devon rubbed their temples a bit more, trying to focus as Lupe talked. It was difficult to keep focus. "I really do not think it matters what you call me at this point. I'm not exactly in a position to do much doctoring at the moment." The flopped back against the bar, wincing at the moment that created- and what that motions did to their stomach. They took a few deep breaths, waiting for the wave of nausea to pass. It took longer than they would have hoped.
In the waiting, they listened. The twins were apparently still under the influence, it would seem. A hallowed grimm spoke to them, and to Lupe. "I would also recommend not jumping down. I cannot say exactly how far it is down, but it far enough that the chance of injury is very high." They sighed. "For someone who is flight capable, it might work."
They paused for a moment as something caught their attention. "Is... someone singing?"

Character:Sierra Current Score: 1 (roll 2/3) Response: Singing helped her if no one else. Confidence growing in hearing the sound of her voice over the screaming she continued her song, growing louder. Pausing just before the chorus she yelled out “ I know ya’ll can hear me and know the words…. SING with me! “I see your True Colors shining through, And thats why I love you, so don’t be afraid to let them show, your true colors are beautiful like a rainbow….” Realizing how much the song and attempting to inspire others was helping her she began belting it out letting her voice ring as loud as possible with the calm comforting melody. She didn’t know how singing was going ot get her out of the cage so she could deal with those who needed killing- but people around her needed to stop screaming, and the screaming inside her head had stoped with her song- so on she sang!

Character name: Eir Points: - RP response:
Eir heard a familiar voice through her growls. "Saiph?" She spit out some splinters of wood. Man, chewing through this would take forever. But it would beat just hanging here. "Saiph, I'm fine, what about you?" She started looking around for the first time. She could see several hanging cages similar to her own. She didn't know all the people in them, but a couple, she could recognize, like Jin and Saiph. "I… I'm going to try to get out of here… the cages are only wood, after all."
An unfamiliar voice called her attention away from where Jin and Saiph were and she saw an unfamiliar naiad and a shade with antlers. "Clare?" That was the leader of this expedition, right? "You, you're Clare Honeymint? Are you… are you crying?" Some leader. "… I'm going to try to escape." She decided. But how? She started rocking her cage a little, testing how it swung.

I'm going to assume Saiph isn't near enough for Eir to see
Character:Clare Score: 1 Response: Milky, Clare's tail, started to move towards the edge of the cage while its host kept staring at the insects. Her ears twitched when she heard someone nearby - 'we're still alive'. Smiling lightly, she turned to look at the voice, instantly recognising the face."Ah, Troy,"she greeted, her legs slowly sliding away from her chest."I'm more alright than some,"she said with a sigh, looking around. She'd noticed when she first woke up and looked around - some of the expedition team had clear injuries, particularly the forest team. She was about to ask if Troy was in a healthy state when she heard some soft singing. Frowning, Clare shifted her position to be on her knees, staring into the trees to see the source. What if their captors didn't appreciate their little performance? They weren't in a position to test things.
Hearing another voice, Clare frowned at the dark-clothed girl nearby. She didn't appreciate being told what to do, but the comments were fair. She wanted to snap back that she hadn't signed up to be a leader of a prison breakout, but.... well, she had, hadn't she? It was her job to deal with anything that was thrown at them. Suddenly another voice, someone criticising her for crying, apparently. Seemed like a perfectly normal reaction to her - she needed time to process what had happened, not immediately launch into action without any thought or planning. Again though, she couldn't truly resent the comment; she was meant to be there for people to look to her for leadership."You're right, we need to collect ourselves,"she agreed with Oìche, once more turning away to scan their surroundings,"but we can't just... well, I know it's hypocritical, but we can't act rashly."Clare acting on impulse is what got them into this mess, after all."Keep it up Eir, there's bound to be structural weaknesses, but I think we definitely need to not attract attention - it probably wasn't these cute bugs that put us up here, after all,"she said with a playful smile, finally starting to feel herself again.
Clare is always available if you have information or questions !

Character name: Eir Points: - RP response:
She was determined to get out… but swinging might not have been the answer. She heard what Clare said about not drawing attention to themselves too late. She had built up enough of a swing to make herself start to feel sick. She stopped swinging, covering her mouth, but it was no good. Whatever drugs they had used on her made the simple swinging motion too much to handle, and she retched. Well, anyone unlucky enough to be bellow her cage would hopefully have a very bad day now. "Not… my finest moment…" She spit a couple times to get the taste out of her mouth. Ok. Clare was right. She couldn't be rash. That was why her mentor sent her on this mission after all. To help temper her… spirited nature.

Character name: Eir Points: 1 RP response:
Ok, now it was time to think. Planning wasn't really one of Eir's strong suits, but she was going to try. She wasn't really sure what Clare meant by structural weakness… but the weakest part of the cage should be where the wood is tied together, right? She looked at her claws, and decided to go for it. She began scratching at where 2 pieces of wood met, trying to break the tie holding them together. When her fingers were sore from trying, she switched to her teeth, trying to chew through it instead. If she could just… break a couple of the ties, she could move some of the wooden bars and climb out.

Character Name: Max Score: 5 (bug) RP Response: Max looked over and saw someone trying to claw and bite their way out of their cage not a crazy idea, except for the getting down part, which was a big puzzle piece to this problem. He wasn't paying attention too lost in his thoughts, then he noticed that one of the leaf bugs was on his shoulder under his left ear he smiled. "Hey there." He said softly "I was really curious about you guys." Still using a soft voice since he didn't want to frighten the leaf bug away again. He wondered if anyone else had found any new familiars in the above on this trip.
