How'd your conference with Snakey go? Jeanine asks, watching the green liquid warily.

Ryan blinks and taps the side of the pen, causing the drip to fall off. He doesnt seem to remember the snake wearing any clothes either, but whatever. He looks around for something to test this venom on...? Hes not paying much attention to the drop that fell, though.

The droplet falls to the ground. After a second, the ground starts to rumble, A Tree bursts from the ground where the drop was spilt, knocking Ryan over, It grows to double Ryan's height before stopping, it is full of green leaves and the tree has various swirls marked on its trunk.

[color:efa6=56bd8b]Oh! Interesting...Ryan examines the tree, then picks up an ordinary rock and tosses it at the tree as a test.

Well, we found the fence maker. Jeanine says eyebrows raised.

The rock passes through the tree as if its nothing.

....or not. she stares at the tree for a few seconds and then says Maybe you should try something more spectral she swings her fist at the tree, tendrils of blue energy swirling of her hand.

It moved me outta the way, didnt it? If it doesnt work on physical it has to work on spectral. Hmm... Ryan shakes off a couple more drops, then catches them with water in midair, creating a line shape. Hes hopingto grow a lot of fairly small trees using the property of dilution.

He actually feels the pen complying with his demands, a line of trees grow, semi bonded with each other, matching the Height that Ryan is hoping for.

Ryan grins. Hey, before we go to your house... Is there any way we can get around really quickly? A vehicle or something? Id just like to visit the most major point of entry for all these spectral immigrants. I think I can slow the flow for the night.

Jeanine shakes her head. The only "vehicle" I have is my bike. Which is currently at school. I could always make a construct for you to travel in. She waves her hand and a bubble with two seats forms. The bubble makes it convenient to just roll, and the seats sorta roll with it, staying put at the bottom. she shrug and it fades Or maybe Arthur has something..? she looks at him quizzically. Do you?

"Finally done playing with your new toy then?" Jared asks Ryan impatiently.

Jared then turns to head to Jeanine. "I have to pick up my bike first, but I'll... meet you later at your house." He quickly adds, "Only because you insisted." He turns around and starts fast walking away, his face deep red.

Alice looks down at herself and finally notices what everyone else noticed. "Oh, that's why you gave me the towel. My clothes are see through because they are damp." She finally wraps the towel around her.


(Hint: Start traveling to the treehouse.)
((Comment: Alice is such a dork.))

I guess we should head over. she turns to Ryan. I know you would like to set the trees now but I would rather you do that in the morning. she chews her bottom lip anxiously It becomes easy for one to be lost at night here. So we should leave it till morning kay? she turns and says to the rest of the group So on less the rest of you want hang out in the dark lets get moving!

Taking note of ryan's new powers, Chase deduced he was at a current dissadvantage to Ryan, and ALOT of the others, but Wait a minute, he wasnt even planning on staying there, so why did he care what powers they had? "I'm with ya Jean"

Let's go then Jeanine made her way through the forest until she reached the river then headed downstream until she reached the path leading home. She made sure to move slowly enough so Chase and Arthur could keep up. She made her way down the path and reached the base of the tree. She turns to the others and says It's a long way up, so if you want to use the bathroom now is your chance. She points to an outhouse surrounded by potted plants and a large pile of dirt a little ways away from the tree That's the toilet. There's a basin of clean water and a bar of soap by the tree. So now that that is done, if you don't have to go we should start heading up. She turns to Chase Do you want to give the pulley idea a whirl? I'll make sure you are 110% safe. she says pulling out some thread in anticipation.

As you all reach Jeanine's house, You see a girl standing by the tree holding several boxes of pizza. Her glasses fail to hide how ticked she is.

Pepper jumps excitedly toward the pizza holder. "See Jeanine!? I am the master at-" WHACK  "- owwwwww." Pepper rubs her head.

Melissa had pulled out a book and whacked Pepper on the head with it. "What did I say about ordering pizza to my house? I'm not your personal delivery girl." She says rather cross.

"Come on, don't be like that..." Pepper pleads.

"Nope, Im still mad at you for the last time.

"Would having some placate you? I got a extra cheesy one." She entices musically.

"... Fine." She sighs. "You'd better pay me back though.

"Pshhaww, of course! Don't I always?" Pepper gives a big toothy grin.

Melissa just lets out a sigh, and smiles at her friend. Then she turns and notices Alice. Her eyes get bigger for a second with surprise. ...hello Alice... I haven't seen you in a while. You doing Ok?

Alice responds, "I... feel better."

"...That's good"

Jeanine watches the exchange with amusement. Hey Melissa! she says smiling Thanks for bringing the pizza and welcome to my humble abode. She gestures at the tree.

Oh, great, I'm ready to eat. Ryan walks over and tries to open one of the boxes to take a slice without waiting for them to do things like get inside or sit down.

Chase thinks about it and finally decides he doesnt give too damns what Ryan thinks, he wasnt going to be here for very long. "None for me thanks, dont feel very hungry." He was in fact VERY hungry, and pizza was his favorite meal. "Dont wanna give them the idea that we are friends or anything, and id rather not owe them anymore then i currently do." Chase says this too himself in audibly while scooching over to a wall, chossing to crash there he lays his head back against the wall and dives into the virtual world he always preffered.

Whack, Quicker than a snake, Melissa whacks Ryan's hand with her book.

She doesn't even turn to face him while she does this and responses to Jeanine. "Thank you Jeanine. It is a pleasure seeing you again. I hope these guys haven't given you much trouble. I understand that Oliver is responsible, but it has to be tough dealing with that town punk,... and Pepper."

"Hey!" Melissa pushes up her glasses and smiles impishly.

Chase's stomach growls quite audibly despite his words. Pepper smiles and declares, "Ha! Your stomach betrays you, now come up stairs and eat before I have to force feed you!" Pepper says triumphantly.

Naw, it wasn't that bad. They were all great, and Jared isn't such a bad person once you talk to him more. she started pulling threads out from her sewing kit and throwing them over the branches nearest the top with weight constructs at the end of them to weigh them down. She fashions a sort of hammock seat with one end the threads, and the other she grabbed with a large spectral fist. Would you like to go up this way? she asks Chase.

blushing and talking slightly lower he says "Im okay, really im not that hungry at all" Chase would have loved to have the power to shrink right about now
