Panic at the Disco it is.

Winter jogged to keep up with the fauni. Night was falling, and he was getting tired. A couple of days- weeks?-years?- well, regardless of how long he'd been on the planet Faunii, Winter was starting to walk with a limp. His feet ached, his back was sore, and he wanted no part in it.

"What do you say we stop for the night?" He suggested.

"I move that we do what the Alpha says," Cassi replied, giggling.

Winter grinned. She'd gotten a lot better since the wolf episode, making jokes and telling tales of long flights. Now, she helped them make camp in a high tree. Though she couldn't fly, she turned out to be a really good climber, and helped a lot with the setup.

After everyone was up, Winter settled into the lowest of the three forks they'd chosen as sleeping places, tying a bit of rope around himself. It wouldn't stop any climbing predators, but they took watches to prevent that.

"I've got first watch," Winter said. He took out the laptop he'd picked up on arrival and opened Pesterchum.

Winter was about to close the chat, when someone began... monitering him? There wasn't a chumhandle, either. His curiosity  aroused, Winter opened the chat.

??????? (??) began monitering anarchyRipper (AR).

??: _Hello...?_*

??: _I assume that this is the Mage?_

AR: nope

AR: it's her little sister, Fleur.

AR: how can I help you?

??: _Do not try to fool me, mortal. Tell me who you are._

AR: who are you?

??: _Your god._

AR: ?

??: _There is no need to explain. I must know the chumhandle of the Mage._

AR: no can do Karkat

AR: are you a troll or something?

??: _uh_

??: _No._

AR: mmmhmmm

AR: gbye now

??: _STOP WORTHLESS HUMAN_

AR: ?

??: _I need to tell you something._

AR: and that would be...?

??:_you... you will die a painful death._

??: _This is the truth, by the way._

AR: yeah, you telling me that really makes me believe it.

??: _You don't believe me... but you will._

??: _Nobody can save you when you can't even save them._
