[OOM] Tython.

They made planetfall a couple of hours ago.

So far, things have mostly just been messing around. They landed in a forest clearing, a little way from a deep but gently flowing river and a waterfall.

Which is where Atton is now. There's a pile of his clothes on a rock by the river, but he's nowhere to be seen, most of the time. Occasionally, he bobs up from under the water, peers around, and goes back down again.

"You are mean, Will," Atton says, heading out of the river. He shakes himself off, then busies himself with getting dressed.

"Do you want a towel?" Guppy offers.

"Am na, shinies are 'mportant."

Atton pauses halfway to reaching for his trousers to consider this.

"A towel'd be good, thanks."

Guppy gets a small but highly absorbant one out of his kit bag and throws it over.

Will just grins as he keeps toasting sausages and other good things.

"Thanks."

Atton dries himself off quickly, before tossing the towel back and getting dressed. By the time he's pulling on his shirt, he's already nosing around the fire for stuff to eat.

"This is nice." Guppy comments, helping himself to a sausage.

"Oh aye, tis an we've lots o'it too."

Atton is handed a sausage.

"S'like a holiday," Atton says brightly. "Though at some point we need to head to that big building at the top of the hill."

"Is there anything in it that's going to try and kill or maim us?" Guppy asks. "Mm, sausage."

"Aye, nice after all the things that 'ave been tryin' to kill us."

"I wouldn't think anything'll try to kill or maim us here. S'a fairly nice world."

"Oh good." Guppy says. "That will make a nice change. Though, to be honest, I think this trip has done me some good, because it really puts the level of danger on my own world into perspective."

"Oh aye, tis lots o'dangerous stuff in yer world, Atton."

"S'fine, once you get back all the things trying t'kill you."

"Well yeah, if you can get them back."

"Think we can, been workin' so far."

"C'mon, let's go see if we can find anything useful."

Guppy puts his towel away and finishes his sausage.

"Okay."

Will puts out the fire and grins, "Aye."

Atton turns, pointing dramatically at the building.

"Let us go!"

Half an hour later, they're trudging up the hill.

"S'further away than I thought," Atton grumbles.

"It's nice enough scenery at least."

"Aye, na cold at all."

"I like the cold."
