[It was supposed to be a quiet evening. Well, as quiet as it could be in this place. The plan was to take a shower, lounge on the couch with a book he'd grabbed from the rec room and try not to use a stray vine to repaint the common area. Or, if the kid wanted to hang out, it would involve something that wouldn't involve leaving the goddamn room. These plans would be ruined the second he walked out of the bathroom, when he watched the little ginger kid bolt out into the hallway like he just found out his girlfriend's pregnant ( ... )

[He does not even know the other is following after him at this point but he keeps running. Nearly tripping over the various plants and roots that have broken through the flooring of the corridors he moved and turned, chasing the vine that held his singular possession, the one that meant the most to him, in it's grasp. Trying to speed up though he was tiring, he finally made it into one of the various halls, empty of life asides the plant. Suddenly--it became obvious that this could be a trap but Colin was not taking no for an answer as he looked out to see the makeshift bear leaning against one of the walls. One breath, two breaths and he tentatively moved forward.

Little did he notice as the veines snuck out towards his ankles . . . slowly wrapping around them.]

[Midnighter finally caught up with Colin just in time to see several vines attempt to grab the boy by the ankles.] Colin! [Grabs Colin by the armpits and attempts to yank him away.]

What the fuck are you doing?!

I was just--! [Suddenly the other is behind him, which is a shock in itself and suddenly the vines are wrapping tight around his ankles--or the one they can grab. A sharp intake of breath and he's looking down before looking over his shoulder at the other before the vines give a sharp yank and attempt to pull him away.

A small sounds escaped his lips as he tried to return the grasp on the other and hold tight.]
