Ree's asking questions. Essie and I used the the "Early Morning Quidditch" alibi, so please don't say that. Or do, and we'll just all confess to a giant underground sophomore Quidditch fight club or something, instead. At least that would confuse them into submission.

I don't really think she bought it, but it's not like she can prove otherwise.

[...] We're not telling anyone else about this. Right?

but that never stops anyone. it didn't stop us. and now there's another path to the grotto that the teachers and the prefects don't know about; they think they're stopping people but they aren't.

Baby Ghostbusters

[untarnish]

Zach and Bash could report the shortcut.

Baby Ghostbusters

[colemoss]

yeah. that's true.

[...]

do you think it'd make another path??

Baby Ghostbusters

[racingstripe]

Oh. Yeah. We never got to ask about that. How many more paths can it MAKE before we're just... out of forest?

Baby Ghostbusters

[colemoss]

i don't know. a lot, probably.

Baby Ghostbusters

[magitechnically]

I don't know if [...] Henry would have known anyway. Or maybe he would. Maybe that's how he got lost.

[Jeffy]

[...]

I really should have thought this through better. We should have at least waited until after the game. Or just not let you come. [...] Or just not gone at all.

I'm sorry.

Dude no we ALL decided to go out there and I DEFINITELY knew the game was coming up. We've been practicing like CONSTANTLY.

My dad is ALWAYS telling me that sports are NOT the most important thing at school and so if we get in SUPER trouble for this and we can't be on the Quidditch team next year then at least I know I didn't let you guys all go out there to get lost or hurt because I was worried about sports.

Jeffy/Essie

[magitechnically]

[...] Okay, you're right. It was your decision to make. Just [...] you're a really great friend, Jeffy. Maybe if we all get in SUPER trouble and they kick us out of school, your dad will at least be proud that you were trying to HELP everyone.

Baby Ghostbusters

[odder]

That's a good idea.
You can go on patrol together and "find it"

Baby Ghostbusters

[untarnish]

Besides that, I doubt there's anything we can do. If people want to go out there, they'll find a way.

[Jade]
Did Regan give you very much trouble?

Baby Ghostbusters

[colemoss]

they might not want to go out there if they knew what we saw, though. right??

Baby Ghostbusters

[untarnish]

I can think of at least seven people that would specifically go looking for it if we told them.

Baby Ghostbusters

[colemoss]

but there are people that wouldn't too.

Baby Ghostbusters

[evercreep]

Cole. Please don't tell anyone.

If we decide we have to let someone know, we need to plan better for how to hand out the information. Simply telling everyone we saw [...] a ghost won't mean anything in light of what's that's been going on lately. After all, we knew a bunch of people got trapped out there for hours, and we still went. In fact, we went in part because we knew that happened. Everyone has their own reasons.

Baby Ghostbusters

[colemoss]

but [...] ok, calvin.

[Calvin]

what if i wait a few days and tell them i went alone?? could i say something? i've gone out there alone before. i don't think they'll think i'm lying. and even if they do [...] it's like you guy said. they can't prove i am. and i can show them what we saw without the camera too. because i drew it.

this doens't feel right at all.

Cole/Calvin

[evercreep]

The story will fall apart. It's going to become clear that a lot of us were out of our cabins that night, and our last defence is that no one outside of the group knows the truth.

We need to wait until this blows over and we know they've given up trying to catch someone for being out of their cabins. After we have some distance, then [...] I promise, I'll initiate a safe plan to get the authorities the information.

Cole/Calvin

[colemoss]

[...]



ok.

i think ree knows, though.

Baby Ghostbusters

[stclair]

[...]

Do you REALLY think it was a ghost???

Baby Ghostbusters

[evercreep]

[...]

I don't know what else to call it. It wasn't anything like the ghosts I've seen.

Baby Ghostbusters

[odder]

Yes. And that's on them.

[Ari]
Just a little trouble. She let it drop, but she absolutely doesn't believe it.
It'll be all right. I'll just mind my rules from now on, she won't be able to prove anything.

Jade/Ari

[untarnish]

Just a few more weeks and you'll be halfway around the world from here and those woods.

Jade/Ari

[odder]

You, too. Unless that possession theory holds any truth, and then I'll be stuck with a little part of it, forever.

Jade/Ari

[untarnish]

If nothing else it may haunt my dreams.

Jade/Ari

[odder]

It doesn't scar [...] Assuming I ever get to sleep again, me too.

Jade/Ari

[untarnish]

[...] I'm sorry I knocked you over. You're not hurt, are you?
