[Road is staring down her communicator with a mischievous glint in her eyes, humming what might be a familiar tune to some people.]

But it's none by none now, isn't it? They didn't do such a good job of...

[She stops as a far too large snake slithers its way over one of her shoulders. By all rights it should have crushed her, but the only change

[Rip is stuck at listening to the tune.]

They always leave here, don't they- ...what were you humming?

[dreamsofnoah]

They do but they shouldn't...it's only an old rhyme, why?

[der_freischuetz]

I've heard it before, I think, but I can't place it. An old rhyme, hm. Strange.

Now, that is a revelation. Did someone important leave?

[dreamsofnoah]

A rhyme, a tune, does it matter, Rip?

No. But Tyki hasn't come back yet. [And she's probably not going to stop pitching fits until he does.]

[der_freischuetz]

Of course it does! These things have meaning.

Ah, I understand. Nothing to be done about that than to wait and see, is there. It's rather tedious, all this selective coming and disappearing.

[dreamsofnoah]

He's in so much trouble next time I see him. It's already been weeks! And you're not allowed to leave either.

[der_freischuetz]

[dreamsofnoah]

I mean I don't want you to go, Rip.

[...?]

[der_freischuetz]

What a touching thing to say!

[dreamsofnoah]

Not really. I don't like people leaving.

[der_freischuetz]

It's not like it would let me leave in any case. So I shall stay.

[dreamsofnoah]

Good. You'd better.

[der_freischuetz]

Tsk. You know that if I get the chance, I must return to the Major's side. Such is duty.

[dreamsofnoah]

I wonder if he'll ever come back here.

[der_freischuetz]

He might!
