"Stay here," he'd said. "I'll take a look around," he'd said. "I'll be back in an hour; keep quiet and we'll decide our direction when I come back," he'd said. Well-- it had been an hour, and then two hours, and every stupid chocolate tree and gumdrop meadow looked like every other stupid chocolate tree and gumdrop meadow, and he'd lost sight of the beacon of Jay's blue hair in the distance long ago.

Neffa was lost, stuck wandering in ever-widening circles with blue synthetic dreadlocks falling in his face and his bizarre, sparkling club held ready in sweaty hands. A pouch of food had come sailing down from the sky earlier, with a note from Timaeus; he'd slipped the note pointedly into his pocket, rather than throwing it away (Maybe he'll remember that), and walked tipped to one side now, the better to keep an arm clamped over the pouch slung around one shoulder. It made his gait more awkward, but he wasn't risking a sneak attack on it.

Everything was sticky. There was no avoiding it. Every inch of skin and clothing that had brushed any part of the blindingly bright landscape had come away sugary, and in the persistent sunlight had melted into a coating that he could feel without touching. He'd been ready to club some sense into Jay a few hours ago, but now he found himself wishing more and more desperately to see him again, still sitting beside their comfortingly heavy bag of supplies and looking worriedly out for him. If Jay managed to get their best means for survival stolen....

He readjusted his grip on the handle of the bat. Gods. Was it just him, or was the music getting louder?

His brows furrowed in response to Neffa's silent question. Of course, he heard the singing, how could he not? it had been a dull murmur moments ago, an annoying hum mere seconds ago, but now it seemed like they could hardly speak, even at a reasonable distance, without having to shout and not even over one another. Enjolras fumbled for the dagger tucked into the sash under his waistcoat, posture shifting in an alert, but not specifically aggressive manner. He still wasn't looking for a fight, and besides, chances are whatever it was that was singing (Could it be called singing? Chanting?) at them was probably more of a threat to both.

"I did well at the Cornucopia," he stated simply, or attempted to, over the sounds of the voices which were becoming more distinct by the second. Enjolras too glanced around their clearing, looking for source of the noise. Finally, at the far edges, half hidden behind a brightly colored shrub he spotted it.

The Doki-Doki looked like some awful chimera, some terrible mix of a cat and a rabbit, with the features of both and neither and eyes too large for it's small oval-shaped head. He pointed to it with the knife, just as it ducked under another pink branch. "There!"
