Upon reaching the Gathering, Yineh made Kion sing with her once more as they made their way up.
Landing on a walkway, Yineh abruptly stopped singing a moment later when Kion peaked over the walkway. He saw Reteh and Vivica sitting bound and gagged in the middle of the walkway.
As Kion made his way onto the walkway, Yineh began rushing towards Reteh and Vivica, only to spin around at the sound of Mirra's voice coming from beside him.
'''
Mirra: Explain to me why when I went to check up on you four there was no one on watch, an improperly tied knot, and worst of all, not a single signal whistle blown during an emergency situation?
Yineh: Well~ you'd have to ask—Viv about why no one was on watch... As for the other two... I could have sworn I checked all my knots thrice over.
Mirra: And the lack of whistle?
Yineh: Hey Ki-su, don't you have something you're supposed to tell Mirra-su?
'''
As Mirra turned to face him, he immediately pulled her into a passionate kiss, which as soon as he started to break the kiss, Mirra wrapped her hand around his head and held him in place.
When she finally broke the kiss, the pair stared into each other's eyes for a moment before Mirra turned her attention back to Yineh.
'''
Mirra: Tomorrow I'll take the four of you back to collect your tent, during which we'll practice whistle calls.
'''
Yineh sighed in relief as Mirra turned back to Kion and gave him a short, playful kiss before jumping off the side of the walkway.
'''
Yineh: So~ how was the dare?
Kion: S-she has a really long tongue.
Yineh: I know, right? It's hard for me not to be super envious, given how short mine is.
Kion: Can we untie the others now?
Yineh: *devious smirk* We could, or we could keep them this way for a while and have some fun. *perverted chuckling*
'''
Yineh sighed in disappointment as Kion walked over to Reteh and untied her hands.
'''
Yineh: Can we at least leave Viv tied up until I have some fun with her?
'''
Yineh chuckled awkwardly as Reteh glared at her while she ungagged Vivica.
'''
Vivica: *relieved sigh* Sorry about this everyone... I don't know what happened. I don't normally just fall asleep like that.
Reteh: *annoyed* It's my fault too.
Vivica: No, it's just mine. I told you it was fine to rest your eyes for a moment.
Reteh: But I shouldn't have been selfish. We're always supposed to do watch in pairs.
Vivica: Yes, but this wasn't supposed to be training... I thought it would be fine to be a little more casual.
Reteh: We have to remember that everything is always training. Especially as we were still in the wild.
Yineh: *affirmative nodding* No one ever said it wasn't training. After all, I picked the Ojeri to help Re-re get over her fear of heights, since I knew she was so spaced out and wasn't paying any attention.
