NOTE—THIS DOES NOT GO WITH RECENT LORE

Ranboo was walking along a shoveled path with Micheal back at the mansion. The snow bit at their noses, and the two's tails were intertwined (despite how much shorter Micheal's was compared to Ranboo's.) The trees around them seemed so much grander than how they were a season before, even though nothing had really changed. The wind blew softly on Ranboo's exposed ears and fingertips as they padded slowly on the path.

The destination of the short travel was Foolish's "construction site" where he was building a huge . . . Duck. A duck.

Ranboo and Micheal agreed to help as much as they can, as Micheal knew the perfect way to make a duck and Ranboo had pretty good construction skills. The two of them walked in a comfortable silence with occasional sniffles and snorts from Micheal who was battling the common cold. Ranboo reached down and grabbed Micheal to place him of their shoulders. "Touch the trees for me, buddy. I miss being able to touch the fragile bark and sit up in the welcoming branches . . ." Ranboo trailed off, and Micheal reached up as high as he could. He stretched and stretched, and soon enough, Micheal did touch the spruce giant. One of its branches almost reached towards them, begging for them to acknowledge its beautiful display. "Thanks," they said patting Micheal's knees. "I bet she liked that."

Ranboo's connection to nature had been growing stronger as they built their mental state back up to its normal, healthy state. Every day they would walk out to a new tree and place their warm hand on the surface of it. Ranboo would speak Ender with the trees, and, despite what most may assume, they understood. The wooded sanctuary, years before the mansion was constructed, was heavily populated with Endermen. The Emdermen used to communicate with the forest in their sacred language. Ranboo always had this connection in them and used it every day. Tubbo always respected their actions, but he deep down was jealous he couldn't understand the trees like Ranboo. Even Tommy believed Ranboo and began to learn Ender to be able to speak to nature with them. Ranboo could speak with the flowers and vines but they spoke very few words. "They're just shy," they always said.

Soon Micheal and Ranboo arrived at the site. "Heyyy, my favorite duo! Well, technically I like Techno and Phil, but beeduo is great, but then there's . . ." Foolish greeted, beginning to trail off. "E-er, that's great. Now, may we begin?" Ranboo set Micheal down onto the prepped grass. Foolish looked over at the Enderman, "Sure, let's get down to business!" He exclaimed.

It's just a duck, thought Ranboo.

It'd been three hours of nonstop construction on the build site. Micheal had guided them throughout, or so they thought.

When the two stepped back afar to get a great view of the sculpture, it seemed . . . Off. The head was oddly shaped, the body looked awkward, and the beak just wasn't it.

"Micheal, you do know you could've told us it looked odd, right?" Ranboo panicked. They didn't like things being imperfect. "Hey, Ranboo, it's alright! We'll get this all fixed up," Foolish patted Ranboo's back. "Or I could get someone else to help." He considered. Ranboo looked solemnly over at Foolish. He knows I don't want to do this again. Ranboo thought again.

Ranboo and Micheal walked home in an awkward silence. The taller felt guilty about leaving Foolish behind to find someone else, so they stopped for a second and ran back to the site. "Foolish! Foolish, I can help too!" Ranboo yelled, reaching out their hand as a sign of trust. "Oh, hold on, Ranboo's back! No no, just wait." Foolish lowered the newest VC Phone. Ranboo slowed to a stop and looked up at Foolish. "I can . . . Help you . . . Guys too." They panted. Foolish chuckled, "Alright, we got another recruit! Let's do this!"

It once again had been a few hours, but after Ranboo finished walking Micheal home and Niki camr everything worked smoothly. The duck actually looked like a duck, the beak looked fine, and overall everything was fine.

Until Ranboo got a call.

"Oh, hey Tu- what? No- hold on, you're talking too fast! What? I walked him home, yes. Building a duck! What was that? You're basically running around with your VC. Yeah, sure, but I gotta go! Love you too." Ranboo finally hung up the VC Phone with a sigh. "The wife mad?" Foolish chuckled and Niki let out a giggle. Ranboo laughed and nodded their head. "I made a Foolish mistake." Ranboo said with a grin.
