June 12th, The Woods, Near midnight

[Well, if they didn't want kids exploring the woods, maybe they should have said why!

Hiroshi, Alice, Nui, Osaka, Chiyoko, Maya, Minako and Maria advance through the darkness. It's not as creepy as Alice was expecting, honestly. She told her parents that she was visiting Maria, and wouldn't be back until late, and they seemed happy enough that she was spending time with friends to not ask too many questions. Her main contribution to the exploration party: A flashlight!

Alice looks up, quietly noting the moonless sky. Good luck, hearing about this whole thing the day before a new moon.]

So, I never did get a clear answer on whether or not there are bears in this area.

Ensuring any and all food is protected is a start. Also, it would be best if we ensure we are not too quiet as we progress. They will be less surprised that way.

[Somebody's been researching.]

I didn't bring any food, so maybe we'll be okay.

Hopefully. Just keep your eyes open and keep your distance.

[ Make sure we aren't too quiet, GOT IT

Is Hiroshi ticklish? Because everyone in the group is probably going to get the answer to that in like two seconds, children Minako is a terrible role model in terms of respect for personal space please to not emulate Minako at home. ]

Gh! Wh-what are you even DOING?!

[There's being not too quiet, and then there's being embarrassingly obvious! Though he doesn't seem TOO ticklish.]
