When Rosy had gone around the tree and couldn't see Draiz anywhere, she was confused for a second until she spotted him up in the tree. That man sure was reckless! "Please don't fall again!" she called up to him. "Not from this height!" With Draiz' tendency to fall down, this was rather dangerous, so she hoped he knew what he was doing.

Rosy watched her partner for a bit before continuing with her own search. A hollow, small tree that had probably fallen down long ago attracted her attention. That would be a good place to hide some eggs! Rosy checked and looked into it. Surely, there were two eggs! But also two inhabitants - atttracted by the rotting wood, two Snickies had obviously made this place their home. Rosy paused. Not only were they and their spikey shells blocking the way to the eggs, the eggs were also full of Snickie-slime. They probably had crawled over them. "Oh no..." She looked back to Draiz. "Here are two eggs, blocked by Snickies and full of slime!" she called back. Well, Draiz was up in the tree, so she had to solve this problem herself, obviously.

"Don't worry," he said as he bent down on the branch he was standing on, smiling down at her. "I promise I won't fall down this time. I use to climb through trees all the time when I was a kid." Once he was finished talking he went back to his search. This search didn't last for long though before he heard Rosy's cry. Snickies? That didn't sound like something anyone would look forward to dealing with.

He bent back down, leaning through the branches and leaves to look out at Rosy. "Would you like some help getting them, Rosy? I don't mind coming down if you'd like me to."

Rosy was right now trying to squeeze some more water from her ribbon into the tree to hopefully scare the Snickies a bit, but the old wood absorbed the liquid before it even reached the small creatures. She sighed and turned around to look at Draiz in the tree. "If you don't mind. I'm not really having any ideas here." She could use her powers to split the tree, but she also didn't want to destroy the home of the Snickies. All that she wanted were the eggs.

She walked around the tree to look into it from the other side. The Snickies weren't blocking the way here, but now the eggs were too far away for her to reach them. Maybe Draiz could? But who would want to touch these slimy eggs, anyway?

The way that he simply let go and dropped from the tree almost seemed as if he had truly fallen again. He landed perfectly fine on his legs though and began walking over toward the tree. "I don't mind. My sisters hated Snickies. My mother kept a garden though and to the garden they were pests. So... usually they all came running to me if there were any in the garden. A little slime won't run me off."

He bent down next to her to look through the tree. Sure, he didn't exactly enjoy putting his hands in Snicky mucus, but hey. There were two eggs in there. If they wanted the eggs one of the two of them had to get them. "I'll just make sure to wash them off in the spring," he said before sticking his arm in to pull out the eggs.

Luckily, she hadn't seen Draiz jump down from the tree or she would probably had half a heart-attack. So, Rosy was just glad when her partner joined her. "I guess I'm kinda a girly girl when it comes to slime", she said, a bit embarrassed. "The Snickies are kinda cute, but the mucus is gross to me."

She stepped aside to give Draiz more room. Hopefully, he could reach the eggs - and didn't accidently touch one of the Snickies. Rosy doubted Draiz could see very well what he was grabbing when he put his arm into the tree. "Be careful. And yes, washing the eggs is a must. Good thing the spring is there."

As he reached further in he made sure his face wasn't looking toward Rosy so she couldn't see the expressions that took over his features. Oh yes. He'd get the eggs. He just wouldn't enjoy a single bit of it. "It's alright. I can understand. I don't think there's anyone who exactly likes this kinda stuff."

After a few moments of blindly feeling around he managed to find the eggs and pull them out. It wasn't long before he was running toward the spring, once again trying to keep her from seeing his face so she wouldn't be able to tell that he actually felt just the same as her when it came to the slime.

"Haha, probably not. Thanks." Rosy waited patiently, not wanting to distract Draiz further while he tried to get the eggs. She felt a bit useless, actually, since she had had to depend on him so much to get most of the eggs so far. Hopefully, she could be of more assistance soon.

She was rather surprised when Draiz suddenly got up and started hurrying towards the water. Confused, she blinked dumbly at him for a second before she took a short glance into the tree - the Snickies still seemed rather undisturbed and happy and Rosy was glad to leave these two alone now - before she walked after him. "Everything alright?" Maybe he had gotten stung by the spiked shells and was bleeding?

He didn't slow down until he was at the spring and was rinsing off his arm as well as the two eggs. "Yeah. Everything's fine. Perfectly alright. I just... figured that the quicker I got them washed off the quicker we can get back to searching for more! ... Right?" He let out a small chuckle, still trying to just pass it all off.

"Those were pretty easy to get at least. I didn't really see much of anything up in the trees, but I didn't get that great of a look."

"Al...right?" Rosy was confused for a bit longer, but then caught on and decided that Draiz probably didn't like the slime, either. Just because he was used to deal with Snickies didn't mean he liked the stuff, right? But he obviously didn't want her to realize, so she would remain quiet. After all, he had't even hesitated to grab the eggs and help her, the least she could do was not teasing him.

"Nothing there at all? Well, that's disappointing. Then again, Terry probably hid these eggs himself, considering the places where we found our eggs before. I had the feeling that he had an assistant for the other regions of this area I visited before. After all, how would a Cuniflare get into the middle of a pond or up into a tree? His assistant could probably fly. If Terry hid the eggs around here, we should probably focus on the ground."

With the two eggs and his poor arm completely washed and free of the slime from the Snickies, Draiz stood up and held them out to look at them for a moment. "I could always give it a second look. It's possible that I just missed them since I didn't spend very long looking. Still, it is possible that Terry didn't hide anything high up around here like you said. I doubt he'd want to spend a ton of time climbing in to trees and what not."

He moved back over to the tree he had been in earlier, placing the two eggs inside of it and pulling it down from the limb it was hanging on. "Want to scan the surrounding area one last time before we head elsewhere?"

"Alright, I'll check around one more time." Her ribbons were almost dry, which meant Draiz' shirt would surely be, too. "Sorry I make you climb up there again just because I was too unable to deal with the Snickies myself. I've been pretty useless so far. I'll try to get better!"

She started to make her way around the trees again, willing to prove her words by hopefully finding a few eggs without having to rely on Draiz for help. However, she couldn't find any around the trees she checked. Terry probably thought that four eggs on the ground around the clearing were enough. She looked up to Draiz, hoping he would have more luck.

Draiz shook his head, starting to head back over to the trees. "Don't worry about it. And you've been far from useless, Rosy! You found our first two eggs, kept an eye on the runaway egg for me, and even found the ones that the Snickies were with. I don't think I would've found those without you. Or the ones that I almost stepped on! You're the one that looked down that hole. Really that makes it seem more like I'm the useless one."

He knew that he did have a use in that he was able to pick up the eggs easily and carry them about, but it still felt like she had been doing almost all the work. As he climbed up in to the tree he was determined to find another egg or two.

Rosy hummed a bit happier. "True. Seems I'm good at finding them and you're good at getting them in the end. Well, that's actually a pretty good team." She was by now looking upwards again, looking at the trees at the other side of the clearing, since Draiz probably couldn't see into these as well, even from his position.

"Do you see anything? I don't think there are any more eggs on the ground and I can't really see something from down here." She could only make out a few of the branches closest to the ground and leaves were blocking her view even then.

Dropping, or rather jumping, to the ground below, Draiz shook his head once again. "Didn't see a single thing. Well.. technically I did see some eggs, but they were in a bird nest and weren't colored like Easter eggs at all. I figured it was best to leave those ones alone. I don't think there are any more in this area after all, though I could look in those trees as well if you'd like me to."

After standing up he took the basket and walked over to the trees that Rosy was trying to look in to. "I think we've done pretty good though. So maybe he decided not to hide too many here since he probably doubted many people would come out here."

"True. I doubt Terry would do anything to disturb nature. After all, this area is famous for its Mr. Wilsons, isn't it? If word got around that event eggs were hidden in nests and there are so many here, people would probably start stealing real bird eggs."

Rosy looked at all the eggs in the basket. "You're right. There's probably nothing here anymore and you climbed into enough trees. We have probably already used up most of our time and should move to an area with hopefully more eggs around instead of searching for some last ones around here. Your shirt should be dry as well now, right? At least my ribbons are." She looked at the shirt that Draiz had put over a branch to dry.
