"Oh!" With a little sigh and her hand over her heart (or the lock, more specifically), Mimsy gave Sherry a worried smile. "I'm okay! I'm glad to see you here! It's just, um...have you seen..."
She trailed off, not really sure how to refer to him, and opted to stand on her tippytoes, holding her hand above her hand to indicate 'tall'.

"I'm glad to see you made it, too. And unhurt!" Sherry smiled. Oh. So that was it. She was looking for... OH. Right. Sherry remembered a tall man from the other stop.
He'd been with her, then? "No, I haven't seen him." She glanced around like that might help somehow.

So he hadn't been here and moved on already, Mimsy assumed, exhaling through her teeth. Maybe if she had a pleasant conversation while their various modes of transportation got some rest...
"Well, thank you anyway! So, um...was it easier this time around?" She managed a smile. "Are you excited to get to the end?"

He had only meant for it to be a minute minutes. An hour at most, but he had completely fallen asleep. When he came to, his camel was inches from his face, ready to spit on him. As it was, there was already drool dribbling down its mouth, dangerously close to his face.
"AUGH NO HELL NO" He shoved the camel away, ending up touching the spit regardless, and resisted the urge to take off his boot and chuck it at the stupid thing.
Ok, he was awake you stupid beast.

Robert arrived, looking beaten up again. But as soon as he'd entered the pitstop, he fell off his hateful alpaca, laid on the floor, and felt better.
And for once, the alpaca didn't try to stomp him. It, too, laid down from exhaustion - Robert had eaten twice as much food as he was supposed to, during the whole trip.. and being that he was already huge, the alpaca was just about ready to give up.

"It was easier. Pepper, my camel, seemed to like the mountains, and we didn't run into any bandits. Which was huge relief." She returned the girls smile. "I am excited. It's been a little longer of a journey than I'd expected."
She relaxed a little, enjoying the break. "How was it for you? Didn't run into anything too bad, I hope?"
Her attention was briefly averted when she heard a yell. Glancing over, she saw Jake, not being very nice to his camel. And then he was leaving, before she could even say anything. Had he been there the whole time? How had she missed him? Sherry was suddenly very sad.
She turned back to the others, a smile on her face. "And I hope we don't run into anything too terrible ahead, either." Let the conversation continue like nothing happened.

Shun gave a fairly impassive shrug before motioning to the horse he rode.
"Mostly this one was giving trouble. The mountains were not easy on him," he murmured. And in turn, it meant it wasn't easy on himself either.
The next person who came by, however, was looking rather beat up.
Shun just stared at him with a raised brow.

Someone arrived and left again without saying a word to anyone but his camel; following his exit, Mimsy caught a glimpse of someone looking in her direction. She smiled nervously and waved. Did she look okay? Was he staring because something was wrong with her?
Self-conscious, she started to run her hand over one of her braids in an attempt to smooth the hair down.
"Pepper! What a cute name. No, nothing too bad for me this time either - I found some bandages, even! Maybe we will both be even luckier for the next stretch of the journ..." She trailed off, eyes wandering to the man on the ground.
"Um." She offered a deeply apologetic smile. "I don't mean to pause our...it's just..."
She pointed at Robert and stepped quickly towards him, glancing over her shoulder at Sherry in hopes that she wouldn't be mad at her. With a frown, she kneeled and put her hand on his arm, slowly and carefully shaking him.
Robert didn't respond when she shook him. He just laid there, harmless, not moving, until..
His arms snapped out and he pulled her down into a hug.
"I'm hungry."

Thinking about what might lie ahead reminded her that she still had places to go, even while she listened to the others.
That was about the time she noticed their new company, in off an alpaca. "No, it's fine.!" If Sherry didn't know better, she'd say that was guy Mimsy had been looking for. He was alive, and hopefully safe. For which Sherry was glad.
She sighed, thinking about the road and it's dangers again. "Well. I think I'm about ready to head out again. I'll see you guys on the road, or at the destination, hopefully. Take care!" She waved a good-bye at the group.
After a quick double check of supplies, she climbed back onto her camel and made for the road once again.

And meandering up to the pitstop was Kettil. He sort of sat up in his saddle to see if Freya made it there before him and thus far? Not a sight of her.
He wasn't sure if he should be victorious, worried, or wortorious.
Yes. Wortorious.
Either way he got off of Faithful and started to get supplies together.

Panic began to set in again as Mimsy realized that he wasn't moving. She tried to remember what she was supposed to do in this situation--
--rope from the shed and knife from the--
"No," she squealed, startled by the sheer velocity at which she'd been snatched up and pulled down to hug him. She managed something that kind of vaguely resembled a wave to Sherry, not wanting her to leave without a goodbye.
"You too! And good luck!" Her smile was awkward as she tried to make herself comfortable, finding it more difficult than she'd assumed it might be, finally giving up and settling on just turning to look at him.
"Um. What do you want? I don't have much but...I could give you anything you have a taste for!"
